An exuberant mid-'70s funk group, Graham Central Station made some fine singles for <a href="spotify:search:label%3A%22Warner+Bros.%22">Warner Bros.</a> Former <a href="spotify:artist:5m8H6zSadhu1j9Yi04VLqD">Sly & the Family Stone</a> bassist <a href="spotify:artist:6lUcc15t11bnaPr2qOuFs2">Larry Graham</a> renamed <a href="spotify:artist:2k25Qm8ChsJQg5kJnCKTkV">Hot Chocolate</a> (not the British group) Graham Central Station after he moved from producing the group to playing with it. The group included <a href="spotify:artist:6lUcc15t11bnaPr2qOuFs2">Graham</a>, guitarist David Vega, keyboardists Robert Sam and Hershall Kennedy, percussionist Patrice Banks, and drummer Willie Sparks. They utilized the identical funk cum rock and soul formula of <a href="spotify:artist:66XuLc224VwkhDVuPMZL9c">Sly</a>, though in not quite as imaginative a fashion. Their debut single, "Can You Handle It," reached number nine on the R&B charts, and they landed a number one record in 1975 with "Your Love." They recorded as Graham Central Station from 1974 to 1977, then as <a href="spotify:artist:6lUcc15t11bnaPr2qOuFs2">Larry Graham & Graham Central Station</a> in 1978, and during their final year were called <a href="spotify:artist:6lUcc15t11bnaPr2qOuFs2">Larry Graham with Graham Central Station</a>. ~ Ron Wynn, Rovi
