Greatest Hits (Sly and the Family Stone album)
''Greatest Hits'' is a greatest hits album by American recording group Sly and the Family Stone, released on November 21, 1970, by Epic Records.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=American album certifications – Sly & the Family Stone )〕 Comprising five singles and their b-sides along with one additional single and one album track, it includes all of the singles from the albums ''Dance to the Music'' (1968), ''Life'' (1968), and ''Stand!'' (1969), and all of their charting b-sides. The album track "You Can Make It If You Try" comes from ''Stand!'', and three tracks released as singles in 1969 appear on album for the first time here: "Hot Fun in the Summertime", "Everybody Is a Star", and "Thank You (Falettinme Be Mice Elf Agin)". The versions on this compilation are not the single mixes in all cases; some songs appear here in their album lengths and mixes.
''Greatest Hits'' was certified quintuple platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), having shipped five million copies in the United States.〔 In 2003, ''Rolling Stone'' magazine ranked the album number 60 on its list of the 500 greatest albums of all time.
==History==
Released in the midst of an eighteen-month stretch from late 1969 to late 1971, during which Sly & the Family Stone released no new material, ''Greatest Hits'' was designed by Epic Records to appease consumer demand and keep the band's name and music in the public's eye. ''Greatest Hits'' peaked at #2 on the ''Billboard'' 200, and was the band's most successful album sales-wise.
The songs from this album were remixed into Quadraphonic format in 1970 - Once as a test mix, and then again for proper release. Both the Test mixes and released mixes contain different running times and alternate or missing vocals/instrumentation to the original versions. Sly Stone and his engineers never got around to making standard stereo mixes of the three non-album singles. Epic had to resort to taking the mono versions and making simulated stereo versions by electronically rechannelling the mono mixes' frequencies for the stereo LP. For years, the Quadraphonic LP of this album was the only way to find stereo mixes of "Hot Fun in the Summertime", "Everybody is a Star" and "Thank You". True stereo mixes of these three songs were finally done when the Sly & the Family Stone catalog was digitally remastered in the 1990s. The album was properly reissued by Epic/Legacy in 2007 and the quadrophonic mix was reissued on SACD by Audio Fidelity in 2015.
