This was an "accidental" find as I read the obituary of Sly Stone & learned he'd produced pre-JA Grace Slick's "Somebody to Love". YouTube gods sent me here instead of just the song, but this is even better.

Grace Slick: The Queen of Psychedelic Rock - A Journey Through Music and Art

A short (5m), sweet & respectful tribute to the daze... including bits of the song produced by no-longer-with-us Sly.

You must have noticed that I talked about the double LP of Stevie Wonder's Songs in the Key of Life.

Naturally I have the LPs also. This album is of great importance because from the engineering point of view very interesting things are done. Since I'm primarily a PA Live Sound engineer, I know that you only learn great things by listening to the work of others. I constantly listen to great and beautiful work of Engineers sometimes more than a century ago

The double LP of Songs in the Key of Life is a very special one. There are people consider this the best work of the artist Stevland Morris who you know a Stevie Wonder.

In reality Stevie, as he said in different documentaries, stated that he was lucky to have the greatest musicians that he needed, at that time, free to come and bring the album from his Mind to Reality
