Sly & the Family Stone - Greatest Hits

Sly and the Family Stone Greatist Hits

I had this album on vinyl back in the 60's. This is one of the records I destroyed a perfectly good pair of speakers with. Now, hearing it in remastered digital perfection is almost too much. I would recommend this without reservation. October 30, 2008

Never too late...

I'm 32 years old and just got this "best of" album, which is my first Sly album. That's how many years I missed out on this amazing music aside from radio play. You like to sing? You like to dance? You like to feel good? Then buy this album and go to town. September 24, 2008

Sly and the family Stone

The quintessential sound of the late 60's and early 70's this CD is packed with great songs. Although the songs were re-mastered the CD still holds that unique sound that dates the music. The songs compiled on the disc are all songs that you will remember even though you forgot the song titles. If you are looking for that disc that holds that funky and groovy sound of the hippy generation this CD is for you. July 6, 2008

Excellent; far better than previous CD issue!!

Finally! Here is the Sly & The Family Stone Greatest Hits album on CD--but this one is remastered having sound that is far, far better than the previous CD issue. Every song is in stereo, while the previous CD of this album had two or three songs in mono. This remastered issue would make the previous issue totally obsolete. But, for those of you who like whatever songs that were in mono on the previous CD issue of this title, please feel free to keep it, but you will enjoy the entire album in stereo on this remastered issue. The cover art has been rightfully restored. It also features (on the inside) the original LP liner notes for it as well as the original LP back cover. You also get details on the sources where the songs were originally released from. A must have for any person who enjoyed this album back in the 70s, this reissue is a true keeper. February 2, 2008

Sounds great remastered but...

This CD has great sound (thanks to Bob Irwin And Vic Anesini), however three songs on the original album, Hot Fun In The Summertime, Everybody Is A Star and Thank You (Falettinme Be Mice Elf Agin) are in stereo on this remastered CD. The old edition of this CD, as on the original album, had these songs in mono. It would have been nice, since the running order of this CD is only twelve songs long, to have included the mono versions of these songs. October 4, 2007
