Kathy Silver and Sly Stone, Los Angeles, CA, 1974.

"Sly’s music had such a scintillating vitality and that’s exactly how I found him to be in person. I went to a house in Hollywood to shoot and hung out there for a day with the ‘family’. At one point Sly was dancing with his wife, Kathy, the two of them hugging their new baby with obvious delight. An image of that moment ended up as the cover for his Small Talk album." -- Norman Seeff

Isabella ★★★★★

The print quality really captures the grit of that Hollywood shoot—you can see the texture in Sly’s jacket and the rawness of the moment. It’s not just a photo, it feels like a slice of the 70s music scene right on my wall. I’ve been staring at it for days and still notice something new.

Madison ★★★★★

That photo of Sly is pure energy—you can almost hear the music coming off the print. The grain and shadow work make it feel like you're right there in that Hollywood living room, and the paper quality is sturdy enough to frame without glass.

Alexander ★★★★★

The print captures that raw, electric energy Sly had—his expression alone tells you the room was alive. I framed it in my studio and every visitor stops to ask about it. It's a piece of music history you can feel.
