An overstuffed treasure chest of musical exploration in addition to being (as the full title suggests) a thoughtful social inquiry.

There's never anything pedantic about this film. [Questlove] wants to share his passion about this particular musical genre and this musician.

This is absolutely extraordinary.

This is a well-rounded account of the man and his band. It includes some performance footage as well. To me, the music of Sly and the Family Stone is joyful, energetic, exciting music. It is nice to see that music still lives on in many ways.
