The expectations were much higher than the final result. Infact, we were treated by the show of a Sly & The Family Stone
cover band with Sly himself popping in between songs and disappearing without notice. The audience started to feel nervous
after six numbers where Sly had not joined the stage yet. Finally, before If you want me to stay he finally hit the stage.
he's simply the ghost of himself, looking very bad, walking here and there on stage. Vocals are strong but the rest is not
too impressive: large sun glasses and a kind of formula 1 / basketball dress. There were some strong moments but overall a
disappointing comeback for Sly. In any case, this is another 'must see' show in my collection. Enjoy!
