You are right, nobody wanted to follow them. Grand Funk opened for Led Zeppelin, first comcert on the tour, half way through the set, Zeppelin's manager told GF manager to get them off stage, he wouldn't do it until he grabbed him by the throat. They shut the power off the stage, cut the performance, Led Zeppelin didn't want to be upstaged. GF also sold out Shey stadium faster than the Beatles.

Grand Funk Railroad was the first band I ever saw in concert. I saw them in 1971, 1972 and 1974. They are to this day my favorite rock band and now you see why. Despite playing for a small TV studio audience on a tiny stage they gave an electrifying performance that 52 years later people are still marveling at.

One of the BEST kick a** rock trios in rock history. Met Mark on several occasions back stage. A true gentleman. He actually makes you feel comfortable and at ease. Sad that the group did him dirty years ago and coerced him out of the band. We fans have to pay the price for that. The new GFR does not sound the same without Mark. My personal opinion.

Great reaction! That long haired handsome man on lead guitar and vocals is Mr Mark Farner. It has been my pleasant honor to have him as one of my neighbors for 30 some years. He is as kind and gentle a family man as he is talented. I do not give my admiration or comments lightly and I admire Mark greatly. Last year he sold out our local casino in under thirty minutes. Wife couldn't get out to the garage fast enough to tell me. Missed out getting tickets. Mark has ten years on me and he still kicks it on stage like that. Keep on rocking young man! 😊👍✌

Saw them in concert a couple of years after this. I was a little high (just a little) but I'll never forget Mark Farner shirtless, tight red pants, armband..& by then his hair was down past the middle of his back. My little teenaged heart almost couldn't take it. And oh, yeah, they were great. Amazing how much good music 3 guys could put out. That's why it's called a power trio. Check out "I'm Your Captain". Interesting tale of a mutiny. "Mean Mistreater" is a favorite. And "We're An American Band" was probably their biggest radio hit.💙☮💙

Mean Mistreater is also a favorite of mine. Live in Jacksonville, FL (1970) is the best imo. I don't think there's video for that performance but the audio/vocals is great. It's the same version from their Greatest Hits album so that should speak for itself. But Van, you should definitely hit We're An American Band next, also Footstompin' Music. The thing to remember about these 60's and 70's bands is they didn't have the tech we have now. No 'in ears' , no wireless mics or guitars, etc. I don't know much about the mixing and engineering side of it but I know that has come a long way since then too. And they just kill it. One final note, after you become acquainted with their catalog, you too will probably be just as confused as the rest of their fans as to how they are not in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. They should be acknowledged. They are awesome.

Oh yeah! Now you’re talkin’! I love this! Nothing fancy either. Between the three of them, they are just 19 and 20 years old. Farner’s mom bought him that $200 guitar, and check out that drum kit, it’s a basic, beginner kit. And ALL THAT came out of only three guys! The rest of their music isn’t as heavy as this one. I think you’ll really like it.

I looked up that lyric you asked about and it goes: "And when my time is up you'll be my reefer". :D There's several references in there. Now I understand why I didn't hear this on on the radio when it first came out.... Plus, it's a bit long to get much radio play. American radio stations preferred to play songs that averaged three and a half minutes or less. It helped them increase the amount of time available for advertisements. BTW: The guys in GFR were from the Flint, MI community and they took their bands' name from the railroad that ran through it: Grant Trunk Railroad.

They were gettimg the bigger crowd reation. Also shortly after this t v appearance they sold out Shea Stadium faster then The Beatles did. In the early 70's they were the biggest band in the States.

Dude, Led Zepplin shut down GFR in the middle of their concert while they were playing inside looking out. They opened for Zepplin at Olympia Stadium in Detroit. and the fans were rocking hard and loving GFR and Zepplin actually shut off the power in the middle of the song. GFRs manager got on stage and said Led Zepplin is afraid of following Grand Funk. The crowd went crazy and rioted storming the stage and throwing chairs , The riot police were called in and Zep never got to play . A few nights later in Ohio the same thing happened and Zepplin threw Grand Funk off their tour the next day.

Grand Funk is by far the greatest American band bar none and the greatest band never inducted into The Rock n Roll Hall of Fame. Once you listen to more of their catalog, you’ll see how versatile this band is 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

My favorite group...After Vietnam - 67_70, I was introduced to Grand Funk, and being a musician, I just had to jam on their songs ! "Inside Lookin Out" was one of their best, and I had that solo down pat....

My brother had the 8 track tape of this album back in 1972 and would play it over and over again. Closer to Home was the epic song from Grand Funk Railroad that I remember the most. Thanks Van

In 1969 I was in junior high school my first concert ever was bloodrock and Grand Funk in the Sam Houston Coliseum it was awesome still got the ticket stub. I was hooked. I went to every Rock show I could go to. No regrets

These guys ALWAYS left it all on the stage, but this particular performance is the most passionate, energetic one I've ever seen them do. Glad you got this video, because it's GFRR at their very peak. Mark Farner is my favorite front man of all time. Back in the day EVERYONE wanted tickets to their concerts.

Glad to see you doing this one, Van. It's a classic. I think you would love "Shinin' On" by them. It's got a great groove and quite a different sound. Still funky, but a bit smoother.

Mark Farner is in his early seventies and played in Flint at the old Capitol Theatre a couple months ago, I missed it but my brother was there and he said it was fantastic. He didn’t realize how good of a guitar player he was. A former coworker of mine was best friends with these guys he had original albums of theirs unopened and on display in his barbecue shop in Linden, MI.
