4. I saw the 2000 vintage War at SummerFest.
Lee Oskar was around, but not onstage.
The original band, WOW!
They're still great.

And Sly once caused a mini-riot at SummerFest by not showing up!!!

7. Easy choice.
War could be good at times; but the Family was perhaps the greatest band in the history of American popular music.

Sly -- hands, feet, and everything else down.

10. Tough choice, but I'll go for War.
I absolutely loved so many of their songs: "All Day Music," "The World Is a Ghetto," "Cisco Kid".....

11. Are you kidding? Sly Stone changed music forever.
He was my idol.

13. Cynthia and Jerry got a message for those who voted for War:
"All the squares go home!"

14. War, hands down!
Such a minimalist groove, NEVER a note out of place. Having said and voted thus,

ALL PROPS TO SLY! (And HUGE ups to Larry Graham!)

:smoke:
