amazing.......2006-07-15
Sly and Robbie are dub masters. I thought this was a great double cd set, and all the tracks are killer. If you aren't sure if you like dub or you are just getting into it, I think this is a great place to start.

Album Description
As the title would lead to you to believe, these are the greatest hits from a group that had a fair share of hits in the late '60s and early '70s. Too pop savvy to be merely a funk band, and too damn funky to be just a rock band, Sly and his multicultural crew made intelligent party music that crossed boundaries and became AM radio staples. Included in this collection are smashes like 'Dance To The Music', 'M'lady', 'Sing A Simple Song', 'Thank You (Falettinme Be Mice Elf Again)' and 'Everybody Is A Star'. 20 tracks. Epic.

Completely satisfied, Excellent condition........2007-04-04
The title says it all.
Thanks,

Excellent soul album, but with poor sound!!.......2007-02-25
This album came out in 1970, and my mother had it on LP back then. I still have the LP copy that she had. It sounds great, even though the cover is marred with ring wear due to its age. Anyway, I have it on cassette also (which my uncle had), and I have the CD. It is a great album, but the sound quality of some of the songs is kind of poor. The second track on this album, Everybody is a Star, sounds kind of thin and dull, like it is in mono (same thing for the final track, Thank You.....). I am hoping to get the 2 CD Essential soon, which I heard that the sound quality of the songs on there is much better than the sound quality on this original Greatest Hits. I would have rated this album 5 stars, but one star was docked due to the poor sound quality on some of the songs (maybe that's why this title has been discontinued, but who knows?). I will still keep this title, but I will definitely go for the 2 CD Essential Sly and the Family Stone real soon!!
Shipping.......2007-01-30
The product was great; unfortunately, I ordered it in December 2006, with a promise of delivery around Jan. 9. The CD did not arrive until January 26th!!! I almost reordered it by that time. What happened here?!
Sly & The Family Stone- Greatest Hits (Best Of The Best).......2007-01-06
Don't pass up on this extreme valuable rarity!! If the track listing is correct for this 2-cd set, then what you are getting is the following- Disc One: The Greatest Hits. Disc one is no big deal but the last track on disc one goes with the songs on Disc Two: and they are called remixes. These "remixes" are all from a 1979 LP called "Ten Years Too Soon" and was way ahead of it's time. No one was putting out full length remix albums back then, hence the title Ten Years Too Soon, but technically these are just simply 1979 disco versions of their songs. But still.... these tracks are very rare and unless you can afford the $200 Japan import cd "Ten Years Too Soon", you better snatch this up right quick!
Sly At The Top Of His Game.......2006-07-26
If you're looking for a point of entry into the lava-lamp infested, funky nightclub world of Sly & the Family Stone, this Greatest Hits CD is your best bet - and it's a bargain. With the exception of Hendrix, Morrison, and Joplin - who died - and David Crosby - who isn't interesting enough to care about - Sly Stone shines out as the quintessential 60's cautionary tale, a man who inspired multitudes with his meteoric intensity and then self-destructed so completely that over the remaining decades he's remained a ghostly caricature of himself, struggling with mundane activities like remembering peoples' names - including his own.
Fortunately, this material is taken from the peak of his career, late 60's and early 70's. The music is exuberant, crackling with energy, and as funky as the law allows. S&TFS was a groundbreaking group in many ways, for starters they were interracial and mixed gender when this was virtually unknown. Their psychedelic blend of soul, R&B, rock, boom-chaka-laka-laka, and smart lyrics is irresistible and uniquely infectious. Sly had a genius for making complex compositions come out deceptively simple, danceable, and sing-in-the-shower-able. The CD is definitely incomplete, but the must-haves are there. (I've always had a sweet tooth for Hot Fun In The Summertime).
If you were not around when this music first appeared, what will strike you most is how influential it's been. Those who have not borrowed bits and pieces from Sly have stolen from him outright. Even so, few, if any of his imitators have been able to match his combination of wit, enthusiasm, and funkability. Buy this CD and put it on loud when there's nobody else around. If you're not dancing by the third or fourth song, you're Swiss.
