I’m so glad I have known his music. Of the albums I think There’s a Riot Going On is the great one: the whole is more than the sum of the parts, which are themselves pretty great. And, here’s a surprise, the version of Qué Sera, Sera from the album Fresh is definitive. It couldn’t be more different from the Doris Day version, and comes across as a moving and thoughtful protest song.
Finally, you haven’t properly heard yodelling until you’ve listened to Sly Stone doing it (Spaced Cowboy)!
