Wanna Take You Higher

Wanna Take You Higher

Sly and the Family Stone was without a doubt the most thrilling band alive. My band Bethlehem Asylum opened for them on numerous occasions in Miami. When this song kicks in the whole world gets up to dance. This morning it is pulsing through my JukeBox Brain like a psychedelic gospel freight train. Pity the folks who never got the chance to witness them in person. Their signature song after Woodstock put them on the cosmic map cementing their place in history. This song evolved out of live performances and owed its popularity as much to the audience response as well as to the band’s stellar performance.
If you want a sample of what the Sixties was really about this is it.
