Sly & the Family Stone - A Whole New Thing

Today Marks The 58th Anniversary of Sly & The Family Stone’s Debut Studio Album “A Whole New Thing” Originally Released October 1, 1967.

“A Whole New Thing” is the debut studio album by funk/soul band Sly and the Family Stone, released in 1967 on Epic/CBS Records.

The album was released to mixed criticism and failed to make an impact from a commercial standpoint and did not chart.

“A Whole New Thing” was recorded live in the studio instead of being overdubbed and featured less of a pop feel than later releases such as Dance to the Music and Stand!.

Sly Stone shared lead vocals with his brother Freddie Stone, bassist Larry Graham and his little sister Rose Stone would not join the band until they began work on Dance to the Music.
