NEW YORK, Sept. 27 (UPI) -- Funk music icon Sly Stone, who is living out of a van in Los Angeles, says he wants to reassure his fans he's going through a rough patch, but is OK.
Stone, 68, was the front man for Sly and the Family Stone in the 1960s and '70s, but in recent years has been known more for his substance abuse and legal woes than for his music.
