Zooo fkin smooth, gwn lekker achtergrond
hirveää määkimistä pääosin...
Too funky for me bro
Vaikea arvioida genreä, jota ei juuri yhtään kuuntele. Ihan letkeetä, mutta ei näin tammikuussa räntäsateen keskellä kuunneltuna lähtenyt.
poop
Smooth, Jazzy, solid background music - don't know if I'd play it on its own though. 7/10 you are nitpicking and biased. I win. Bye bye! the album is very influential and i hear a lot of it in the contemporary funk/jazz that i listen to today, but it doesn't have any of the initial appeal that i get from modern funk or jazz. the production is very dated and hurts my ears so i have to listen to it at a low volume. 4/10
It was a funky, fun album. Hard to tell what they're singing about though. 1RS
Funky, but slower than previous SFS album.
Eipä jäänyt hirveästi käteen tästä levystä. Mikähän tässä on ollut erityistä, että on noussut listalle? Spotifyssakin on Family Affair -biisiä kuunneltu päälle 38 miljoonaa kertaa.
Not my thing, wishy washy
Czarny soulowy funk z lat 70, sadzilem ze moze bede kojarzyl, jakies sample, najwieksze hiciory, ale nie nic, czarna dziura w pamieci i nie moge zalapac zadnego skojarzenia zarowno z albumikiem jak i banda, jak sama nazwa wskazuje banda rodzinna, bo doliczylem sie 4 stonow, problemem jest to ze po przesluchaniu mam nadal czarna dziure w glowe, bo ciezko o cos co naprawde zapada w pamiec, mocno psychodeliczne brzmienie i mruczenie na wokalu wcale w tym nie pomaga, ale najwiekszym problmem dla mnie byl mix tej plyty wszystko na maxa w glosnosci musialem podbic zeby przesluchac niektore traki, bo jesli polowa liryki sa pochrunkiwania i mruczenie to glownym punktem uwagi staja sie instrumentale, ktore sie nieraz traca przez dziwny balans glosnosci miedzy nimi, nie wspominam juz nawet o bolaczkach produkcji jak zaszumienie, ktore pojawia sie do bolu, kolejna dziwnoscia plyty jest to, ze trak tytulowy ktory zazwyczaj jest mocnym punktem kazdego materialu i jego twarza tak tutaj ma 4 sekuny i ma byc niemym skitem, jesli dobrze go zrozumialem, chyba ze to odniesienie do tego ze revolucja nie bedzie ztelewiryzowana, ale to pewnie nadinterpretacja, kolejnym punktem do ktorego mozna miec wonty w spotifajowym wypadu jest pierdolnik ktory panuje na trak liscie, edycja z 71 zawiera w sobie traki z reedycji z 2007, 4 nowe traki w tym running away ktory jest najbardziej zapadajacym w ucho songiem jaki tu uslyszalem, glownie za sprawa zenskiego wokalu, oraz 3 instrumentalne traki, ktorych historii powstania nie znam, ale wyraznie slychac lepszy mastering, bo sa o wiele wyrazniejsze w odsluchu, na plejke dodam running away i luv and haight
Si te va el funky lo cierto es que debe ser un super álbum pero no es mi estilo
Ich habe keine Meinung.
Not my favourite. Bit samey
Did they realise the mics were on?
The more funky songs were pretty good, some others not so much.
Found it quite samey. Songs started to drag towards the end. Not my cup of tea but would shut this off if given the choice. Better towards the end with single versions and instrumentals
Just nothing interesting, drags on way too long
det var lite för spretigt på nåt sätt. oskönt skrikade emellanåt.
Paikoitellen vekkulia menoa, mutta kokonaisuus ei kantanut
Not very interesting
Just another example of a sound that I really enjoy elements of when used in other and more modern music but absolutely do not like served on its own. Just too much funk for my taste and the awful production does not help either. 1.5/5
Ya me ha tocado otro disco de este grupo y con esto confirmo que el grupo no es de mi agrado
It’s unfathomable that a list this short, given the grand scheme of music, feels the need to not only include multiple funk albums but multiple from the same artist? Please let this have been the last one
Not for me. 1/5
not my thing, probably really significant for its time tho. kinda music you would hear in a store. i do like "thank you for talkin' to me, Africa"
The yodelling song made me want to kms
What on Earth even is this? Don’t even know what genre it is. Let’s give it a go, I’m here to learn. I’m sorry man but this is so boring. I really did not enjoy listening to this at all. What the hell is the yodelling? I have to give it a 1/5, I hear basically no redeeming parts or standout tracks or any highlights at all.
This album is too funked up for me. 8 mins 45 Africa talks to me, 8 mins 44 too long. Couple of reasonable songs, rest is meandering noodling.
Nicht meins!
Not a vibe
This album just didnt click with me at all. I was bored almost the entire time. I love 70s funk but this just wasn't it for me.

Whenever I hear STFS, I always wonder where the elevated reputation comes from. Dull and poor production.

Not quite what I had expected Not hearing anything that I want to play again
Rubbish!
I just can't.
Bizarre album that is so unapologetically boring. Amounts to some okayish bassy muzak that is entirely uninteresting. I kept waiting for something engaging to happen, but nothing ever does
Only good song: The title track.
babcia powiedziala ze fajne. nie wlaczyla aparatu sluchowego (zazdroszcze)
I guess you had to be there.
Nah
The soundtrack to 70s porn
Please give me something that’s not from the ‘70s. I beg of you. This was not for me. Again. We will keep trying.
Ok
One great track.
Not my kind of funk
This was oddly not good. It doesn't feel like an album. Just a bunch of jams and goofing around. Not for me.
Sounds really dated and much better music from this period around. Washes over you
Sicken skit.
got really bored of it
Ekki fyrir mig.... á að vera í ætt við "what's going on" með Marvin Gaye but mér finnst sú plata mun mun betri
Never liked them and still don’t get it.
Solo escuché 1 y no me hizo gracia, pido perdón
Nicht meine Musik
Boring.
Yikes
Nah
Very confused sound
Funky. Not really my cup.
Heard it before?: No Enjoy it?: Not really Favourite song: didn’t have one
not my thing
Not for me too much funk
Er, no
Funky but flat I’ve listened to 3 funk albums on this list so far and none of them have worked for me Fully prepared to accept this is an issue with me rather than the entire genre! I’m sure this is good but it didn’t move me at all
Really did not like. To repetitive and not very lyrical
No track escapes D Tier, which almost hurts my feelings. “(You Caught Me) Smilin’” comes closest, but still not a song I’m going to ever go out of my way to queue up, unless I’m specifically introducing someone to Sly. And as much as I like funk, this sound is just so dated. From the poor production quality to the choice of synth, it sounds like background music for a blaxploitation flick. The sound does not transcend the era, in my opinion.
Don’t remember much. Rating: 2/10
The most obvious of cocaine albums. It's bold and confident, but busy like a big mess. It does not sound good. 1.5/5
fck usa
Yo adddriaaaaaaaaan
I wouldn't go out of my way to listen to this. Not for me.
Not my bag baby
I respect what the group was trying to do here, but this is way too long and droning for my tastes. I'm sure the lyrics were great - if I could hear them. And I understand the instrumentation was unheard of for the time, but the only thing - in my opinion - that makes this album stand up so much today is that it feels like a collection of tailor-made beat samples for songs that would probably better benefit from them. STANDOUTS: -Family Affair -(You Caught Me) Smilin'
1 gar nix für mich
That was boring and quite. Not like poorly recorded they just sang softly, but not enjoyably.
Boring songs by a drug addled group. Their earlier album Stand! Was better
meh
what the fuck
