Best funk album ever. I can't believe it's Sly Stone who plays the bass lines here.

An album that was WAY ahead of its time.



It's safe to say this much influenced every Neo-Soul artist in existence, directly and indirectly!

I'll be honest here - I know next to nothing about Sly & The Family Stone. I own this album, which I bought purely on the recommendation of Q's Top 100 Albums Ever (published December 2002). I clocked in to that list at #91. The now infamous Rolling Stone Top 500 Albums Ever has it at #99. All I know about it is what I read in Q, and what I hear when I listen to it. So, for cultural context, I'm afraid I can only repeat what Q has told me.

I've only heard Life, Stand!, Riot, and Fresh, but all of them are quality



Also remember that song Weapon of Choice by Fatboy Slim? it samples a song on Life, and when I first heard Life I was like WHOA
