Kraft Music Hall was actually aired on NBC, not ABC. I know because I was an NBC page at the time and worked on this episode, which was shot the NBC studios in Brooklyn. I seem to remember that all didn't go smoothly, with Sly and the director, Dwitght Hemion, having some differences of opinion. I think the producer, Gary Smith, had to help make peace to get the show rolling, which eventually happened. It was the first time I had really seen Sly & the Famly Stone, and it knocked me out.

There’s just too many good things to say about Sly and this band. Sly brought the message of love, compassion and music. He let everyone in the band be a star. Say what you will about his decline into drugs but he had/has heart and love in him and his songs. P.s. Rose Stone, I still love you and always will.

Sylvester Stewart aka Sly Stone..One of the greatest soul/pop singers...completely under appreciated. Before Prince...there was Sly

Thanks for posting. This medley made them famous at Woodstock. They were by far the best and there was some talent there, over 3 plus days

This was such a great performance to me. Takes me back to my days in Junior High. I would come home from school, & play these songs. I was the first one home. Thanx for this….
