专辑介绍

这张专辑里的歌曲全是Sly Stone谱写和制作的，曲风可以用“光怪陆离”来形容，歌曲旋律性不太强，反而是电声乐器的特效给人留下很深的印象，据说爵士强人Miles Davis听了这张专辑很受启发，所以后来出了张同样很怪异也很夸张的Bitches Brew。专辑中的两首带有政治色彩的歌曲也引起了相当大的争议，比如那首Don't Call Me Nigger, Whitey（别叫我黑鬼，白佬）。

这张专辑在滚石杂志选出的500张历代最强专辑中排名第118位。

Stand! is the pinnacle of Sly & the Family Stone's early work, a record that represents a culmination of the group's musical vision and accomplishment. Life hinted at this record's boundless enthusiasm and blurred stylistic boundaries, yet everything simply gels here, resulting in no separation between the astounding funk, effervescent irresistible melodies, psychedelicized guitars, and deep rhythms. Add to this a sharpened sense of pop songcraft, elastic band interplay, and a flowering of Sly's social consciousness, and the result is utterly stunning. Yes, the jams ("Don't Call Me Nigger, Whitey," "Sex Machine") wind up meandering ever so slightly, but they're surrounded by utter brilliance, from the rousing call to arms of "Stand!" to the unification anthem "Everyday People" to the unstoppable "I Want to Take You Higher." All of it sounds like the Family Stone, thanks not just to the communal lead vocals but to the brilliant interplay, but each track is distinct, emphasizing a different side of their musical personality. As a result, Stand! winds up infectious and informative, invigorating and thought-provoking -- stimulating in every sense of the word. Few records of its time touched it, and Sly topped it only by offering its opposite the next time out.

Stand!
