This song will NEVER get old for me, it was our class motto Lucy C. Laney Comprehensive High School Class of 81, Augusta, GA. Our marching band played this, they played it at our graduation, and we use it in all our reunion events, T-shirts, hats etc. Wildcats for LIFE. Thanks for reacting to a beautiful song.

He may be most respected for his musicianship. He is the funkmaster on the bass and is imitated by many of today’s greatest bassists.

One bit to add to Larry Graham. He and Prince were very good friends. During the 1980’s up to mid 1990’s Prince never did interviews. Larry convinced him to come out of his shell to let the world know about him. Larry also toured and at times was an opening act for Prince.

Ashley, 4 quick facts about Larry Graham: [1) He's primarily known for Funk starting with playing bass guitar for Sly & The Family Stone, then his band "Graham Central Station".......2) He invented a "thumpin & pluckin" bass technique that books are written on and it's studied worldwide since 1969.......3) "One In A Million" was later as a solo artist in a departure from the Funk to become his biggest song ever!........4) This song has two meanings: it's a love ballad for a romantic relationship, but originally it was written to "God" because Larry is a devout Jehovah's Witness........5) Prince grew up on Larry's music and some years before he died, Prince & Larry became good friends to where Larry shared his faith with Prince and Prince had Larry as his bass player for years up until his death........6) Larry is Drake's "Uncle" (he & Drake's father are brothers)]. Ok, ok! I gave you two extra facts! lol

This song was one of my favorite ballads, from the 80's! I sang it every time, that I heard it. It was a different from Larry's 1970's Graham Central Station funk era.

Larry Graham really threw me a 'curve ball' with this soulful ballad. I had been used to listening to powerful Funk from Graham Central Station. The dichotomy between "One In A Million" and "Entrow" (1976) is truly amazing. I had not known that Larry Graham could sing a soulful/love song like "One In A Million", Ashley. And I appreciate being able to experience the vast range of vocals Larry Graham is capable of.

@Lfg117 Ай бұрын

Crossover viral hit was heard everywhere: jr. high music performances, school dances and even cheeseball, slowed-down versions at wedding receptions. This song is so universal you'll even occasionally hear a tired, slow, instrumental-only elevator 'muzak' version. Song went global soon after release. Your reaction instincts & feelings were right on.

Lol.. This Drakes uncle.. He also played with and mentored Prince.. He literally pioneered the slap bass and wrote for Al Green.. His Brother, Dennis Graham, Drakes father played the drums for James Brown and sang himself. Their Cousin Lawrence Mitchell is the famous Producer that recorded artist like Anthony Hamilton John Mayer, 8 Ball and other top artists with the help of his Father Willie Mitchell who produced and recorded Most of Al Green and many top artists back then songs.. I could keep going.. But ima just say.. Drake was born into music.. It's in his bloodline.. He was destined to be an artist..
