Abaco Dream

Abaco Dream was a rock group from New York City.

History

The members were Paul Douglas, David Williams, Dennis Williams, Frank Malo, and Mike Sassano. They had a single Hot 100 hit in 1969, the Sly Stone written "Life and Death in G & A", which peaked at number 74 while charting for six weeks, released on A&M 1081.[1] Another single from the group, "Another Night of Love", did not chart when released in 1970.

Pseudonym for Sly and the Family Stone?

Many musicologists believe that "Life and Death in G & A" is actually a performance by Sly and the Family Stone. They note the similarity in perfomance of this song to other Family Stone songs, and the dissimilary between this song and other Abaco Dream releases.[2]
