About The Record:

Star Walk, by Larry Graham, marked a transitional phase as Graham began shifting toward a solo career, blending funk with emerging pop and soul influences. The album, recorded at Black Hills Recording Studios in Oakland, California, showcased Graham’s signature slap bass technique and featured contributions from key band members like Robert "Butch" Sam and Tina Graham on vocals. Historically significant as Graham Central Station’s final album before the group disbanded, it captured the tail end of their influential funk era while hinting at Graham’s upcoming solo ballad success with hits like One in a Million You. Notable tracks include (You’re A) Foxy Lady and Scream, which stood out for their infectious grooves, though they did not chart as major hits. The album received praise for its tight production and funky rhythms but did not achieve the commercial crossover success of Graham’s later solo work.
