The album marked a shift in the bands tone, striking a more political and militant vibe while showing Sly Stones disillusionment with the promise of the 60s. At the same time, it was also a big commercial success, hitting #1 on the album charts while the single Family Affair topped the singles charts. Its influence rang throughout the 70s as all of the funk innovators took their cues from this seminal album, and its songs became a favorite for hip hop artist mining sampling gold decades later. It came in at #81 onRolling StonesGreatest Albums Of All Time and besides Family Affair, the album features the tracks Just Like A Baby and Africa Talks To You (Asphalt Jungle).
