Cynthia Robinson, trumpeter/vocalist for Sly & The Family Stone, died Monday of cancer at 69. For music historians, she was noteworthy as being one of the few female brass players to play in a hit group. For the rest of us who just wanna jam, she was best known for hollering at the squares to go home on the band's first (and my favorite) hit, 1968's "Dance to the Music." Here's the hit. Squares beware.
