The impact of a thick bass rediscovers the origins of funk
A collection of selections that rediscovers Larry Graham's bass groove and the funk spirit of Graham Central Station.
The first impression is the presence of Larry, who popularized the bass slap technique. The funky, straightforward rhythm and the heat of the horns and chorus are everywhere, creating a sound that gets your body moving the more you listen. For listeners, this album serves as a funk textbook, and is a valuable album not only on the dance floor but also in music history.
