GRAND FUNK RAILROAD - Heartbreaker LIVE 1974 | FIRST TIME REACTION TO HEARTBREAKER

[@lisaldeene]

Best ever! My total favorite from an amazing catalog!

[@babylonsister118]

GFR, one of the best! Thanks! Mean Mistreater is another great by them.

Now that’s how to end a song! Don Brewer on drums/vocals 🥁 I’m Your Captain/Closer To Home is their most famous piece of music…

[@Silverstreak7878]

Beautiful song and performance! I love your reactions!

[@chrisnicol1644]

All you need is both Grand Funk "live" albums. Then your life will be happy...

[@bopep1368]

aside from records sold, and concerts sold out, anyone who watches this performance and thinks they shouldnt be in the RRHOF has some problem that doesnt relate to the appropriateness of them being in.

[@babylonsister118]

I COMPLETELY agree with you there!

[@stevenewcomer8837]

They outsold the Beatles in Shea Stadium.

Mark liked to show his Native American heritage. Still has long hair.

[@msmith5121]

Most popular live band in the world from 1969 - 1975 selling out arenas all over the world.

[@albertzappa1994]

He's still going today.💚🎸

Mark Farner is a guitar God kick ass bamd

[@Roberto-bd9fq]

Cool reaction, just when you think it's over BAM!

[@stevenewcomer8837]

Mark Farner on guitar and lead vocals is terribly underrated! He’s the sole guitarist.

[@skydogfan4671]

Knew you’d enjoy this performance by them. If you have not yet reacted to the Allman Brothers song Whipping Post, I highly recommend you do. Make sure it’s the studio version, not live. There is a great video on KZbin with the lyrics burnt in wood.

[@babylonsister118]

Would love to see Whipping Post! I agree!

Great reaction !! a true "Power TRIO" !! In their day, they ROCKED !! GFR Always gave it 110% and Left their hearts on the stage. They had a RABID Fan base. When they opened a show for someone, they always "Up-Staged" the main act, even Led Zep (Half the crowd left when Led Zep came on.)!! Led Zep never let them open for them ever again !! When they opened for Rod Stewart and the Faces, the crowd Boo'ed Rod Stewart off the stage !! When promoters finally realized just how popular they were, GFR became the "Main Act". GFR became known as the originators of "Stadium Rock". They filled stadiums across the USA and Europe and sold out Shea, in 72-hours !! The Beatles took 3-weeks to sell-out Shea !! I saw them twice in 1971 and they were AWESOME !! That year, at Pirates World in Dania, Fl. the Promoters sold 15,000 tickets for a outdoor venue, that only held 10,000 and the people who couldn't get in rioted and over-turned 3 Miami police cars !! If their manager (a friend) hadn't taken every penny and all their rights, and left them NOTHING, they would have been the biggest Band EVER !! Their leader and front man Mark Farner is still rock'in today, after decades of legal battles to finally, get the "rights" back enough to play GFR songs again !! GFR is the best thing to ever come out of Flint, Michigan (except maybe the GM Buick). There is NO GFR without Mark Farner !! WAKE UP R&R HOF !!

Lead guitarist looks like the Ultimate Warrior wrestler

When I heard what happened to this Band I felt sorry for them but it made me love them even more, when they started they were a Power Trio, Mark, Don, and Mel, they were selling millions of Albums Selling out Stadiums but the band was seeing very little Money and they thought they were signed to a Record Lable but they weren't their Manager Terry Knight was sign to the Lable and Band was signed to their Manager so when the Money would come in the Manager would take Half and Split the other Half 3 ways and when they found out what was going on they fired the Manager and he sued them for 57 Million Dollars and he won the manager took everything the only thing the Band got was their Band Name, so they had to Start over and they added a forth Member, then many Years later after they broke up the IRS Came after them because their Manager started a Corporation in their Name but Never Payed the Taxes so they were Financial Ruined again. A few years ago Terry Knight was Murdered by his Daughters Boyfriend

These cats were the masters of the "false finish"---where they make you think the song is over--and then BAM!---get right back into the song! That's what separates this jam from all other power ballads out there!
