Sly Stone Appears At Grammys

Sly Stone and some of the members of The Family Stone appeared at The Grammy Awards on February 8. Sly, 61, appeared in a silver coat, huge shades and a platinum skyhigh mohawk. He played keyboards on "I Want To Take You Higher" and mumbled a few lyrics. The Sly & The Family Stone tribute included performances by John Legend, Maroon 5, will.i.am of the Black Eyed Peas and Steven Tyler of Aerosmith.

Sly & the Family Stone never received a Grammy Award. Never even nominated.
