Before Stand there was Life. Before EPMD met Jane, Sly told us all about her. Life was out of print for quite sometime and I could never bring myself to part with the dough to get a copy from Bill's Records. Tracks 1 through 11 are from the original issue. Extra credit comes in the form of track 12 (Only One Way Out of This Mess) from the 1995 reissue and the 2007 bonus tracks Dynamite (mono single version), Seven More Days, Pressure, and Sorrow.1. Dynamite!

many thanks for this great album corrector.
NICE BLOG!
Thanks for this post about one of Sly's more underrated but important albums. I write about this in my book, Sly: the Lives of Sylvester Stewart and Sly Stone. I hope you'll check it out.
Thanks for posting these great Sly reissues. I had the original reissue of Stand until it got stolen by the local pawn shop to help pay the rent some years back. It's gonna be great to have them once again.
Peace and blessings.
