Album Description
Available in: Country Icon
GCS 2000 is the eighth studio album by Graham Central Station, and their first to be released by NPG Records. The album was co-produced by Prince, who co-wrote one song (Utopia) and appeared on every track as a musician or vocalist (mostly uncredited).

The album was released on 2 February 1999, the same day as 1999: The New Master (on which Larry Graham also appears), and was third and final album in the 'trilogy' worked on with Prince and Chaka Khan from late 1997 to mid-1998 (New Power Generation's Newpower Soul and Chaka Khan's Come 2 My House were the other two albums in the trilogy).

User Album Review
During the late '90s, Prince attempted to help resurrect the careers of two funk icons from the '70s -- Chaka Khan and Larry Graham -- by signing both to his label, NPG, and producing new albums for each. The Prince/Graham album was issued in 1998 as GCS 2000, and turned out to be the first new studio album credited to Graham Central Station in nearly two decades. Whereas such earlier Graham Central Station classics as Release Yourself sound as if they were recorded entirely live, GCS 2000 reflects Prince's renowned "studio perfection" approach throughout, especially on such tracks as "Free" and "Groove On." Too much Prince and not enough Graham makes GCS 2000 sound like a Prince solo album with Graham guesting, instead of a triumphant return to form from this trailblazing funk bass great.
