A 7″ 45-RPM sleeve for a 1970 USA reissue of Sly and the Family Stone’s single “I Want To Take You Higher” on both side A and B. The song was originally released the year prior. Record labels looked to try capitalizing off of Woodstock’s and its film’s success. The band played Sunday morning August 17, 1969 from 3:20 a.m. to 4:20 a.m. following Janis Joplin. This particular sleeve was a radio station copy, so this was maybe a call for more airplay.
