That drummer is top notch. Terrific cover by everyone.

[@boblab44]

Mark, Don and Mel would be proud.

[@StratmanDarrell]

I wish Mark Farner and the boys could hear this. Great job. Everyone is so tight. That bass tone is outstanding!

[@jackmurphy3934]

If they did it wouldn't be together, that's for sure. Mark Farner is Grand Funk Railroad. These guys are better than that imposter band calling themselves Grand Funk Railroad. GFR will never be the same without Mark Farner.

[@bb_lz9790]

I love this song! Well done! The bassist did a great job!!!

[@seriousdefect822]

Crushing bass

[@mrglenn66]

Out-f'ing-standing!

[@jackflash5659]

I f'ing agree 100%!

[@lesliehorwinkle]

I was about 7 when this came out and it really really left a mark. Pun or not, I knew it was special.

[@edb6690]

To me, this shows how impresive Grand Funk was, they made this sound with only three people. A great cover guys.

[@JenniferDavis-nt9zm]

Wow,great job.

[@lowtech5530]

Grand Funk was one of my all time favorite bands. These guys are outstanding.

[@stevegarland1526]

The drummer hits all the licks, on all songs, but the whole band, does some unbelievable covers. If I knew where and when, Love to come see them.

[@mr.kite0535]

I like how the drummer nailed that single roll going into the bridge. Also, the tambourine man nailing the top part.

[@DamJam-ie8mj]

Thanks Mr kite, I appreciate it. We love Grand Funk! For the most recent picnic I picked this GF song. Check it out! kzbin.info/www/bejne/fpqomaR_rZKWd6csi=EJ5djyu0jKj702oX

[@seriousdefect822]

Excellent work. Really a class act. The tambourine is essential to this song. Bass, guitar, vox epic. GFRR would be proud. Well done

[@DesrochersBob]

Great job guys. As a Vet, this was MY SONG, waiting to come back home!

[@gregoryarseneau5326]

I want to see these guys this ain't simple stuff to play like this.

[@mc9551]

Unfortunately the band which is a group of over 15 friends & had been playing together for over 20 years decided to call it quits in 2024. So all we have is you tube to give us the memories of this great bunch. Can't believe I just found them 2 weeks ago.

[@RockinRandall420]

It’s great that you folks are keeping these tunes alive! Thank you 🙏 😊

[@bryansmith4856]

These guys can play ANYTHING and do it VERY well . Thank you!

[@valdosoliz3487]

Wow...very impressive! As a drummer myself and having played this song a number of times, I am blown away by the drummer's rolls around the toms....I can tell he's practiced rudiments by the boat load. Also by the way band added improvisation on the intro...! Very well done! Added in 2015 and I'm just seeing this....2021! Hope these guys are still playing!

[@Rustam276]

Fantastic Cover of GFR. Very impressive group and very good outdoor sound. Amazing drummer Dan on Yamaha.

[@jamescreeden5568]

The harmony was wonderful! Well done

[@jackmurphy3934]

One of the best covers I've seen of this GFR classic. Unfortunately there will never be another GFR without Mark Farner.

[@nolaserv]

Hello Jack, we all have to give them a break. we don't get any younger. When the time comes, we have to let it go. I don't think there are many singers who can go past 75 yo. I think our younsters are really catching on to the music we grew up to and doing a great job with it. Of course we would like the originators of it all but we have to be realistic about it. So, at least the music will live on!

[@donlangeberg7179]

Bass player was all over it! Great work.

[@michaellake2359]

Man oh man, you guys rock. Great instruments, great vocals, great harmony.

[@user-vx7ij1wo4q]
