Description

“Dance to the Music” marks the moment Sly & The Family Stone crystallized the sound that would not only define their career, but also lay the groundwork for the future of funk, soul, and eventually hip-hop. Released in early 1968, both as a 7″ single and later as the title track of their breakthrough LP, the recording introduced the band’s now-iconic formula: multi-racial, multi-gender musicians, a massive rhythm section, vibrant horn lines, and a communal vocal approach that blended harmony, call-and-response, and pure party-energy.

This version hits hard and quick — a perfect 45 built for jukeboxes, dancefloors, and radio rotation. Collectors prize original pressings for their raw, uncompressed energy and historical importance.
