Negative Positive
Title: A great bio!
Review: Man, was this a great read! Sylvester truly was more than a he or a she. Sylvester was Sylvester and this book makes it a point to stress it while documenting his short life. His life, intertwined with the Cockettes, the Disquotays, and his work with Martha and Izora (Two Tons of Fun, The Weathergirls, C+C Music Factory, Black Box, etc.) reflect the depth and response to the radical social changes taking place in America. Sylvester's life and times are true inspiration to those seeking to institute radical personal change.I was much too young to enjoy the true disco days, but I remember listening to 7" records of "Dance (Disco Heat)" and "You Make Me Feel (Mighty Real)" as a youth. In any case, I wish more of Sylvester's life and work were available, especially his rock and roll days. This book and the existing recordings will have to suffice.
