Released in 1970 during the stopgap between Stand and There s a Riot Goin On, Greatest Hits inadvertently arrived at precisely the right moment, summarizing Sly the Family Stone s joyous hit-making run on the pop and R B charts. Technically, only four songs here reached the Top Ten, with only two others hitting the Top 40, but judging this solely on charts is misleading, since this is simply a peerless singles collection. This summarizes their first four albums perfectly almost all of Stand outside of the two jams and Somebody s Watching You is here , adding the non-LP singles Hot Fun in the Summertime, Thank You Falettinme Be Mice Elf Agin , and Everybody Is a Star, possibly the loveliest thing they ever recorded. But, this isn t merely a summary and, if it was just that, Anthology, the early- 80s comp that covers Riot and Fresh would be stronger than this , it s one of the greatest party records of all time. Music is rarely as vivacious, vigorous, and vibrant as this, and captured on one album, the spirit, sound, and songs of Sly the Family Stone are all the more stunning. Greatest hits don t come better than this -- in fact, music rarely does.

lt if supportLists gt lt endif gt THE RECORD
lt if supportEmptyParas gt lt endif gt
IMPORTANT NOTE: unless otherwise noted, ALL records are graded visually, and NOT play-graded we grade records under the strong, diffuse room light or discrete sunlight
lt if supportEmptyParas gt lt endif gt
lt if supportLists gt a lt endif gt THE ALBUM IS STILL FACTORY SEALED AND IS BELIEVED TO BE PERFECTLY MINT. Please note: sealed items are assumed to be mint and are sold as-is, as we have no way of inspecting them. For our policy on still sealed records click here PLEASE READ BEFORE PLACING A BID .
lt if supportEmptyParas gt lt endif gt
lt if supportLists gt b lt endif gt The record is believed to come in its original stock inner sleeve.
lt if supportEmptyParas gt lt endif gt
lt if supportLists gt c lt endif gt The record is apparently pressed on a beautiful, thick, inflexible vinyl, which was usually used for the first or very early pressings. Usually, the sound on such thick vinyl pressings is full-bodied, vivid, and even dramatic. Do not expect to obtain such a majestic analog sound from a digital recording
lt if supportEmptyParas gt lt endif gt
lt if supportLists gt d lt endif gt Of course, this is a full-bodied ANALOG recording, and not an inferior, digital recording

lt if supportLists gt lt endif gt THE COVER
lt if supportEmptyParas gt lt endif gt
COVER IS NEAR MINT, STILL SEALED AND COVERED IN ITS ORIGINAL SHRINK WRAP
lt if supportEmptyParas gt lt endif gt
The following flaws or imperfections are noted on the cover:
lt if supportEmptyParas gt lt endif gt
lt if supportLists gt - lt endif gt Cover has JUST A HINT of ring wear nothing significant On the scale from 1 to 10 1 being the least, and 10 being the most severe , we assess the severity of ring wear as 2 front side and 1 back side .
lt if supportEmptyParas gt lt endif gt
lt if supportLists gt - lt endif gt Front cover has circular tarnish grayish, dust-covered sections, which closely follow the contour of the record , probably caused by friction or by rubbing against other covers during the storage. The tarnish is similar in appearance to a common ring wear, but, UNLIKE ring wear, these grayish areas may be possible to clean up with a minor effort and with a right cleansing solution.
lt if supportEmptyParas gt lt endif gt
lt if supportLists gt - lt endif gt Cover shows JUST A HINT of yellowing on the front side, apparently from aging.
lt if supportEmptyParas gt lt endif gt
lt if supportLists gt - lt endif gt Cover has a light wrinkle crease in one of the corners.
lt if supportEmptyParas gt lt endif gt
lt if supportLists gt - lt endif gt Cover has one corner slightly dinged nothing significant
lt if supportEmptyParas gt lt endif gt
lt if supportLists gt - lt endif gt Cover has a few tiny wrinkles along the spine nothing significant
