Product Details

Sly Stone built something that had no real precedent: a racially and gender-integrated band playing a combustible mix of funk, soul, rock, and psychedelia at a moment when American music, and American society, were cracking open. The Family Stone's influence runs straight through Prince, hip-hop, and virtually every funk-rooted act that followed. These tracks weren't just radio hits; they were dispatches from a genuine cultural revolution.

If ever a greatest hits album lived up to it's name, it's this one. The #1 album from 1970, Sly & The Family Stone's GREATEST HITS remains as thrillingly irresistible as ever, spinning off one indelible classic after another - "Dance To The Music," "Everyday People," "I Want y To Take u Higher," "Stand!" and more. More then hits, they are high points of American popular music, every one of them. This re-issue of the Greatest Hits is the final entry in the 40th anniversary restoration of the incredible Sly & the Family Stone Catalog.
