This has got to be one of the first serious 'funk' albums. Those beats. Dat bass. Those horns. Sly and the family are one of those bands that have always been on my radar but I've never quite got around to checking them out properly.
A mixture of races and genders coming together to make great music, and one of the earliest bands to mix upbeat funky 'party' music with serious political commentary. Great stuff, and as the "got it" at the top implies, I ended up picking up a copy of the album as a result of listening to it.
