5 stars out of 5 -- "STAND! is Sly Stone's definitive statement....The title track's coda is the funkiest thing ever recorded by anyone not called James Brown...", 5 stars out of 5 -- "Everything seems to click, with the band actually sounding like one big, happy family.", "...extremely vital body music. It really can't be listened to in a low volume and communicate. STAND! depends on sheer energy...", Ranked #118 in Rolling Stone's "500 Greatest Albums Of All Time" - "STAND! is party politics at its most inclusive and exciting..."
