Sly is back, and he’s reppin the Yay.

Posted by Maximum Fun on 18th July 2007

Fuck the haters, Sly is back, and stooped though he may be, he’s nearly as bad as ever.

“If You Want Me To Stay,” my favorite song of all time, performed with a very solid band this past Sunday, followed by “Sing a Simple Song” and a shortened version of “I Wanna Take You Higher.” Sly’s moving pretty well for a guy with as pronounced a hunch as he’s displaying here. As you’d imagine, his upper register isn’t as strong, but his lower register is rich and sounds wonderful. I’m just happy he’s back. We lost JB, nice to see Sly stepping back into the spotlight.

And did you check out his Bay Area lid? REPPING THE YAY.
