Sly & the Family Stone represent the pinnacle of musical diversity.
The album is characterized by an innovative sound created by a band that transcends race and gender, and the title track "Stand!" perfectly blends a social message with a danceable groove. With its forward-thinking approach that broke down the boundaries between funk, soul, and rock, it is a monumental work that had a huge influence on later musicians.
