"Thank You (Falettinme Be Mice Elf Agin)" is a 1969 song recorded by Sly and the Family Stone. The song, double a-sided with "Everybody Is a Star", reached number one on the soul single charts for five weeks, and reached number one on the Billboard Hot 100 in February 1970.

Digipak reissue of 1971 album. 2001.

Fresh is the sixth album by American funk/soul/rock band Sly and the Family Stone, released by Epic/CBS Records on June 30, 1973 (see 1973 in music). Written and produced by Sly Stone, Fresh is more upbeat than its predecessor, the landmark There's a Riot Goin' On, but still retains much of Riot's dark, funky feel.

Since it took almost two years to make, the fifth album by now bonafide superstars Sly & the Family Stone had everyone salivating in anticipation. Needless to say, Sly did not disappoint! 1971's There's A Riot Goin' On finds the Bay Area-based genius getting funkier than before, even as his artistic vision becomes darker. Some may have been disappointed that Sly didn't simply re-create the chart successes of earlier singles, but who can argue with the flat-out brilliance of turning recent big hit "Thank You (Falettinme Be Mice Elf Agin)" on its head to create the mind-boggling "Thank You For Talkin' To Me Africa" Two of this hypnotic album's best tunes" Family Affair" and "Runnin' Away" were gigantic chart hits, proving beyond any doubt that Sly Stone could totally deliver the goods!

“斯莱和斯通一家”（Sly & the Family stone）乐队
斯莱·斯通（Sly Stone），1944年出生于达拉斯，从小在教堂唱福音歌。不久随家迁往旧金山海湾地区，大学时学了三年小号、音乐理论和作曲。1967年，他效仿海湾地区的嬉皮士社团，组织了一个包括黑、白两个人种，有男有女的乐队“斯莱和斯通一家”（sly & the Family stone），共7个人，其中有斯莱的妹妹和弟弟。斯莱自己唱歌、演奏吉他和键盘乐器。
“斯莱和斯通一家”在摇滚舞曲的节拍和低音线条的基础上结合了管乐、迷幻摇滚中常用的那种比较松弛的吉他演奏，以及与吸毒有关的歌词，成了第一个表演所谓“迷幻索尔”的乐队。他们演唱时，经常由两人或三人主唱，两个明显不同的男声部与一个女声部并置在一起，产生一种独特的和声效果。
