Harlepolis	Sly Stone's Ode To Doo Wop - "This Is Love" Sylvester Stewart in a very rare form, having fun and paying tribute to a musical style he seems to revere. One of the heartfelt & rare oddities he did, along with the song "Sylvester". My absloute fave moment from "Small Talk" Edit: Thx darling [Edited 2/13/13 15:13pm]

Its a very romantic tune. In many was Sly went old school; when guy's would get his friends together (noted, if they could sing) and serenade their lady love or a girl they had a crush on. Lovely song.

LOVE! Love practically all he did. What year did this song come out?

Harlepolis	1974, from "Small Talk", one of his most underrated and endearing albums ever. And yeah it is different, but then again, he never had the patience to repeat himself.

Not really. I believe he started out doing Doo-Wop.

Disagree Even if started out doing it, he is mostly known for his funky grooves and that is what most of his music consists of.
