    Grand Funk Railroad is a great American rock band who achieved their peak in popularity during the 1970's. "I'm Your Captain (Closer to Home)" is one of my favorites. But they had a lot of great hits such as "We're An American Band", "The Loco-Motion", "Walk Like A Man", "Shinin' On", "Some Kind Of Wonderful", "Bad Time" etc.

    These guys were 18 (Mel on bass), 19 (Don on drums) and 21 (Mark on lead guitar) when this video was made. Maybe the best live performance ever recorded on You Tube.

    Rock from this era has unreal gems like this in spades, Grand Funk being A great example of making compelling music that stands the test of time. Modern viewers confirm just what we knew right away as all this was happening, we were witnessing forever music that appeals to almost any generation, race or ethnic group, does not matter, this music conquers all. Enjoy! 🎵🎸🎤🎶

    I'm in grandma's generation. I love GFR. Remember, this is a 3 piece band. No studio effects. No tricks. Just funky, soulful rock and roll. The bass player is killing it. He's driving thus song. Great reaction! Thanks!

  • @brucecronin6396
    @brucecronin6396 8 месяцев назад +7

    Their early stuff is their best. Their Caught In The Act album has all good songs. T. N. U. C., Black Licorice, Footstomping Music, I’m Your Captain/Closer To Home, etc are great to listen to.

    Lucky and Old enough for GFR to be My Very First Live Concert to attend.
    Ended up seeing them 3 times through the early and mid 70's.
    They were the epitome of Live Bands.

    Hello Trio, I'm glad that you found Grand Funk. This music is from their " Red Album ". I tell you if memory serves this sounds like the album and they lifted it from this performance onto their studio album. Grand Funk Railroad knew how to " whip it out - ( Frank Zappa) " and play their music in a live setting. " Hey! " - Kyoto Tachibana Senior High School Brass Band Club

  • @willieboy3011
    @willieboy3011 8 месяцев назад +14

    GFR was Hard Rock, American style. "Loneliness," "Paranoid," "Heartbreaker," "I can feel Him in the Moring" (especially poignant with kids giving their version of God, before the song kicks in), "I'm your Captain," and many others.
    First time here. I enjoyed it.

    Grand Funk RR takes their name from an actual Railroad that ran through Michigan and Ohio (they are from Flint, Michigan) the Grand Trunk Western RR.. my older brother took me to see them in concert at Cobo Arena in Detroit just before I left for Vietnam in April 1971.. great concert and performers..

  • @russwalker3119

    Thank you all...I was lucky to see these these guys and so many other icons in the 60's and 70's, it makes me smile to see two more generations enjoy them as well. The most memorable time I saw them (Three Dog Night is a refernce to how many dogs it takes to stay warm on a winters night) was during a blizzard in Springfield, Ma., (1972 or 3) the concert cancelled but about 100 or so of us made it and were seated so...the guys came out said nobody's going anywhere tonight, so c'mon down front...we're gonna jam.
    From Janis to Skynard, Outlaws (name it)...the night was epic.words fail even today.
    Keep looking to the live sessions, that's the standard...not the studio

    This was a cover tune, that a few years before a British band called The Animals had recorded! The music critics hated these guys, but THE PEOPLE loved them! I saw them in 1971 with another band i really LIKED, called BLOODROCK!! Bloodrock was a new band, and touring with GFR. A really good concert!!

    Love the excitement of several generations of listeners enjoying legendary rock and roll from my high school years. Grand Funk represents what we called the quintessential Power Trio of that era. Especially enjoyed the look on the face of the youngest of your family. My generation and I had that same look on our faces at her age back in 1969. Enjoy and rock on.

    I grew up an hour and a half from Detroit, in Canada, during these days! I’m close to 70 now, but I saw Grand Funk Railroad 4 times! The MC5, Bob Seger and many of the 60’s/70’s Mowtown acts!
    I’m grateful I grew up in such a crazy time for music! Looong before social media. When what “people liked” was organic.
    Peace

    Love your reaction to Grand Funk Railroad, they are one of my favorite bands of all time. They were huge in the late 60s to the mid 70s. Mark Farner, the lead singer and lead guitar player, is my favorite front man. He could do it all. I recommend Heartbreaker live 1974 by them next.

  • @jimmyrobinson8436
    @jimmyrobinson8436 8 месяцев назад +4

    I saw them live in 1971 and they killed it. They put so much energy on the stage it was amazing. They are probably best know for the songs "I'm an American Band ", and "I'm Your Captain".

    Loved your reaction to Grand Funk. You guys are great. They came out of nowhere in late 68 to early 69 and just blew up, and started selling out all over the world. Everybody wanted to see them. Their trademark was they played so loud and heavy. They constantly upstaged other bands, including Led Zeppelin. They were the it band for many years.
    You got to check out they're legendary 1971 Shea stadium concerts. It's incredible.
    Try :"I'm your captain" &"Paranoid"
    Love your show girls!! 🔥🔥🔥

  • @user-xp8qx7fb5z
    @user-xp8qx7fb5z 6 месяцев назад

    Notice Mark Farner's guitar which was a Musicraft Messenger guitar which was ahead of it's time with an aluminum neck, stereo outputs and a special fuzz circuit that gave it a special sound. It was a hollow body electric guitar which Mark stuffed with foam rubber and taped over the front openings with masking tape to reduce feedback since he played so loud. In the viedeo you can clearly see the masking tape on the front.

I worked in the concert business for 23 years, and definitely have to say that they were amazing live!! You should definitely check out their song "We're An American Band"!!!

      @47tooter 7 месяцев назад

      The Beatles took 5 weeks to sell-out Shea stadium , and Grand Funk sold it out in 3 days. Grand Funk sold-out MSG in less than 2 hours. They added a second show and it sold-out in 4 hrs. GFR sold-out MSG TWICE in less than 6 hrs. Without calling to put on your Credit card or stopping at Strawberry's.
