Soul, Man: Sly's honeymoon is over but here comes Betty Davis!
Vernon Gibbs, Crawdaddy!, September 1974
THE ARTIST in eclipse, new art in ascendance; it happens in real life just like it does in the movies, but most people are too jaded by the present and too shocked by the future to give it proper notice. It happened in New York as Sylvester Stewart went out in a blaze of banal glory and Betty Davis left them too shocked to speak.
