Released in 1974, the album peaked at number twenty on the [[Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums|Billboard Top Soul Albums]] charts while the single, "Can You Handle It?" peaked at #9 on the [[Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs|Billboard Soul Singles]] chart.
In his review for Allmusic, Donald A. Guarisco called the track "Hair" "pure magic," adding that it "wraps a clever lyric about tolerance around a huge groove driven by one of Graham's serpentine basslines." He also called out "Can You Handle It?" as another highlight and credited "Ain’t No Fun to Me" and "We Be's Gettin' Down" with making the album "equal parts pop-soul and funk" respectively, but determined overall the lyrics on some songs to be rather underdeveloped and that "casual listeners" may want to pick up the album's best songs on a compilation. <ref>https://www.allmusic.com/album/graham-central-station-mw0000186103</ref>
