Sly & The Family Stone: Sylvester "Sly Stone" Stewart (vocals, guitar, keyboards, harmonica); Freddie "Stone" Stewart (guitar, vocals); Jerry Martini (saxophone); Cynthia Robinson (trumpet); Rosie "Stone" Stewart (piano); Larry Graham, Jr. (bass, vocals); Greg Errico (drums).
Master Sound releases are 24-karat gold CDs remastered from first-generation masters. This process utilizes 20-bit technology and Sony's revolutionary "Super Bit Mapping" system.
STAND! was Sly & The Family Stone's fourth album, and contained the hits "Everyday People" and the title track. It also contained Sly's first foray into social/political songwriting with "Don't Call Me Nigger, Whitey," which touches on black and white racism.
Sly Stone was too busy having a good time and living life to the excess to begin to realize how influential his brand of funky soul would become. Early signs of rap also surfaced on this album. Confident, hard rocking and marvellously arrogant, the band were outrageous and exciting; even five minutes of a cappella handclapping was riveting. Two classics appear on this --"I Want To Take You Higher" and "Everyday People"--but the whole album is a necessary purchase for students of goodtime soul, dance, rap and funk. This family is the acknowledged leader.
