Product description

Sly & The Family Stone ~ Stand

Amazon.com

Need proof of how great Sly and The Family Stone were? Just check out the track listing for Stand! The title track, "I Want to Take You Higher". "You Can Make it if You Try", "Everyday People",(before it was a car commercial)--and this isn't even the greatest hits package! Hippies with attitude (and serious soul moves), Stone and crew were one of the most influential and free-wheeling forces in R&B/rock. Stand shows why. Gut bucket bass lines (thank you Larry Graham), joyous take-you-there anthems, and seething racial politics that made you move--and think--while on the dance floor. --Amy Linden

Really great late-60s, early 70s cd. Sly really does it. I appreciate his revolutionary sound more than ever! What an ensemble of rock, soul, and psychedelic funk!!! The layered straight bass and fuzz bass was original and first of its time. Thanks to Sly's brother the the revolutionary bass rifts. and to his sister, too, for her remarkable harmony and trumpet!

Sly's '60s Masterpiece

Reviewed in the United States on November 5, 2021

Verified Purchase

This is one of those albums where you put it in the CD player and press the "Repeat All" function. It speaks about positivity (You Can Make It if You Try), unity (Everyday People), pride (Stand!), and even paranoia (Somebody's Watching You). It also has an amazing instrumental (Sex Machine) that ends with the group literally having the last laugh after a drum solo. Definitely recommended!!!

Fastastic remaster.

Reviewed in the United States on December 11, 2019

Verified Purchase

One of the best albums of the time period. Stand is a bit of a milestone. It has that funk and rock vibe perfected like few others. There isn't a bad song on here, and there are a few ultra classics that cannot be denied. Whatever your taste in music, this should be in your library as a cultural artifact of the 60s. Released just before the major Woodstock performance, it's probably the band at their peak.

The remaster is dynamic and lively. Faithful to the band and their sound.

Debout le Funk !

Reviewed in France on December 25, 2015

Verified Purchase

Au rayon du proto-funk, il y a une bande de garçons et de filles de toutes les couleurs qu'il s'agit de ne surtout pas oublier, Sly & the Family Stone bien-sûr !
Après quelques albums déjà bien sympathiques mais encore pas tout à fait définis montrant un collectif en constante progression (ainsi, Life, le prédécesseur immédiat est-il le plus recommandé), la bande revient avec un féroce appétit et des idées qui jaillissent dans tous les sens. Epoque oblige, tout ceci est gonflé de psychédélisme jammy, d'un flower power militant mais, musicalement, c'est indéniablement un des albums qui définit cette musique à trémousser des hanches, à suer sur les dance-floors au sons de vocaux passionnés et de cuivres rutilants... Le funk ! C'est évident sur I Want to Take You Higher, le "supra-bœufante (13 minutes 45 secondes !) Sex Machine, qui n'est pas une reprise du titre du même nom de James Brown mais une folie psyché/rock/groove du plus bel effet, et le très "street cred'" Sing a Simple Song qu'on imagine bien illustrer un nanar blaxploitation où il serait, bien entendu, la star. Ceci dit, plus généralement, c'est tout l'album qui est infusé de ce groove poisseux et sexuel qui identifie le genre. Alors, évidemment, il reste des échos de la génération Woodstock (c'est d'actualité, après tout) comme sur un Stand! ou un Everyday People des marguerites plein l'afro, deux excellentissimes singles, est-ce encore à préciser ?
La collection est si bluffante et tellement passionnément habitée par ses interprètes, et si bien bonnussée dans l'édition remasterisée (deux beaux inédits et les version mono des trois singles), qu'il est tout simplement impossible d'y résister. Si on ajoute l'importance historique de l'album, c'est bel et bien d'un immense classique incontournable dont il s'agit, ce que vous saviez d'ailleurs sans doute déjà. Si ce n'est pas le cas, vous savez ce qu'il vous reste à faire...
