Graham Central Station - S/T - Blu-Ray Audio Disc
Quadio
2024
Started by Larry Graham, bassist for Sly and the Family Stone, Graham Central Station released their Self-Titled debut in 1974. An exuberant hybrid of soul, funk, and pop, the album reached No. 20 on the Billboard Top Soul Albums, and their lead single, "Can You Handle It?" hit No. 9 on the Soul Singles.
"When this musicianship is applied to the right songs, the results are pure magic: "Hair" wraps a clever lyric about tolerance around a huge groove driven by one of Graham's serpentine basslines, and "Can You Handle It?" effectively fuses a pop melody built on a sing-along chorus to a propulsive bass/keyboard groove (it also became the group's first chart hit). In short, casual listeners may want to pick up this album's highlights on a compilation, but funk lovers will find plenty to enjoy on Graham Central Station".
