Special Tribute - Sly Stone: The Revolutionary Genius Who Changed Music Forever

Welcome to a special commemorative episode of Hitmaker Chronicles. I'm your host, Garrett Fisher. Today we pause our countdown to honor the extraordinary life and revolutionary musical legacy of Sly Stone, the visionary leader of Sly and the Family Stone, who passed away at age 82 after a battle with COPD. From his early days as a San Francisco DJ to creating the template for funk music and breaking down barriers of race and gender, Stone redefined what popular music could be and do. Join us as we celebrate a true pioneer whose influence on funk, rock, hip-hop, and soul music remains immeasurable.To become a premium subscriber (no ads and no feed drops) visit caloroga.com/plus.   For Apple users, hit the banner on your Apple podcasts app which seays UNINTERRUPTED LISTENING.
