Happy 40th Anniversary to Everyday People

Hard to believe that it's been 40 years since this great piece of psychedelic soul was released.



According to one reference source, this song was in the top five in Febraury 1969 and was number one on Feb 15th of that year.

I still remember my sister bringing home a Sly and the Family Stone LP, back when I was in the 3rd grade or so. And I also acknowledge that Sly Stone paved the way for the likes of George Clinton, Prince and so much of the world of hip-hop, and probably much else in the world of music. So, I celebrate this song on its 40th anniversary.
