Happy birthday to Greg Errico, born on this day in 1948 — the original drummer of Sly and the Family Stone. With his deep pocket, inventive grooves, and rock-solid feel, Errico helped define the sound of funk, soul, and psychedelic rock on classics like Dance to the Music, Everyday People, and Thank You (Falettinme Be Mice Elf Agin). Beyond Sly’s groundbreaking band, he went on to play with the Grateful Dead, Santana, Weather Report, and Betty Davis, cementing his place as one of the most versatile and influential drummers of his generation.
@SVG__Collection I want to thank for letting me Be myself 🎶
@SVG__Collection I swear I was born in the wrong era. I wish I could have seen many of the musicians you share here live. It's the soul, the style, the finesse and talent, from the heart sh*t that I love to listen to and get lost in.

@SVG__Collection Greg Errico was in Weather Report? I never knew that. Thanks for the post, & happy birthday Greg!
