Review

Rolling Stone (9/21/95, p.85) - 3.5 Stars - Good - "...the group's 1967 debut, isn't quite the genre-busting exercise its title promises...[but] the Family Stone's boundless high energy, tight musicianship and soulful convictions get the motivating message out loud and clear..."
Down Beat (p.68) - "The capricious 'Run, Run, Run' bursts with melodic invention, while the gritty opener, 'Underdog,' forecasts the street-hustler funk to come."

Title Note

Sly & The Family Stone: Freddy Stone, Sly Stone (guitar); Jerry Martini (saxophone); Cynthia Robinson (trumpet); Rose Stone (keyboards); Larry Graham (bass guitar); Greg Errico (drums).

Recording information: 06/1967.

Though it failed to achieve the commercial success of its follow-up, DANCE TO THE MUSIC, Sly & The Family Stone's debut album established a precedent for a new blend of rock, soul, and funk. This was ground zero for a new generation of progressive R&B. Led by the assertive vocals and soulful keyboard work of Sly, the band pumped out energetic, horn-driven grooves that combined the propulsion of Motown with the socially relevant lyrics and hard-edged electricity of late-'60s rock and roll. The opening cut, "Underdog," establishes Sly as a spokesman for the downtrodden, but the booty-shaking groove that carries the song provides the kind of dichotomy between intellectual rage and irresistible funk that was at the heart of the band's finest work.
