Sly & the Family Stone came into their own with their second album, Dance to the Music. This is exuberant music, bursting with joy and invention. If there's a shortage of classic material, with only the title track being a genuine classic, that winds up being nearly incidental, since it's so easy to get sucked into the freewheeling spirit and cavalier virtuosity of the group.
Dance To The Music" was written by Sylvester Stewart (better known as Sly Stone). It was their first charting single, coming from their second album. It foretold the future success of Stand!, their fourth album, which became their breakout album and gave them their first hit. "Dance To The Music" has since been ranked on Rolling Stone's 500 Greatest Songs of All Time . Sly & the Family Stone drummer Greg Errico recalled the story to Uncut: "Most of our stuff in those days came together over time. It wasn't a preconceived thing. Cutting the track, we got the strong beat that everyone could log onto, then it came together in layers.

With their second album, Sly & the Family Stone began transforming the pop music landscape. Released in 1968, the album’s title track immediately set radio and dance floors buzzing with its relentless groove and infectious optimism. Entire generations of soul, funk and hip-hop musicians take their cues from the elemental tracks contained here. That said, this is still a group in transformation. Higher, a rough prototype for the group’s later hit I Want To Take You Higher, and Dance to the Medley are inside looks at the group’s improvisational and experimental processes
