ICYMI: We dropped a limited edition release this past Friday (7/18) — and a few copies are still up for grabs!

Check out the glowing review from Pitchfork:

“This early live recording captures the psych-soul trailblazer knocking out a night of contemporary soul covers. It’s virtuosic if not yet visionary, though the thrills are self-apparent.”
— Daniel Bromfield

Rare Sly & The Family Stone alert! Originally recorded in the early hours of March 26, 1967, The First Family: Live at Wi******er Cathedral captures the raw, electric energy of the band before they signed to Epic Records. Thought lost to time, this recording—captured by their first manager, Rich Romanello—was tucked away on 7-inch analog tapes for 35 years before finally being brought to light. It was re-issued for Record Store Day earlier this year, and now it's available to everyone! Get down with Sly & The Family here. https://orcd.co/icantturnyouloose
