Here’s a fun fact. At the time this was recorded, Mark Farner, lead vocal and guitar, and Don Brewer, drummer, we’re both 21 years old. The bassist, Mel Schacher, was only 18 years old.
Rather than researching your statement, I am will just ask... really? That is insane and they look way older
pancho perfulcro Probably because lots of hair was the style back in the sixties and early seventies, and enough of it will make a person look older. Mark Farner was born on September 29, 1948, Don Brewer was born on Sept 3, 1948, and Mel Schacher was born on April 8, 1951.
Craig Cook , bullshit, you have you facts wrong dude!
@@terryquinn7765 Google it, he's exactly right.
@@terryquinn7765 Hey terry look up shit up. You must be fun at parties!!!
Hard to believe that this was 50 years ago. Still sounds amazing. ☮️
And for being 50 years old, it holds up to, and whoops ass on 99% of the stuff coming out today!
@@andrewschultz7930 I just wanted to give you a thumbs up but when I try it just keeps bringing me to comments, soooooo here ya go 👍👍👍👍👍👍✌✌✌✌✌✌🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘😉
@@Teresia12, 😆 Thank you, that made my day! 😁
@@andrewschultz7930 I'm so glad. And you are welcome 😉
Time flies when your having fun.
No auto tune, no sampling, or dubbing. Just 3 uber talented dudes in synch with each other. Funky, funky,funky! ✌️
I don’t know if I ever have seen three people put out such an incredible performance.
Amazing what you can do with a simple 3 piece drum set , one guitar and a bass. Musicianship and talent
It is called talenr!
@@maryellenazack4466 talenr??

We partied to these guys all through high school. Grew up with the best time in music♥️
LeAnn Miller Ain’t that the truth we seen it firsthand first time
And when my time is up you be my reefer!
The 60's, 70'and the 80's when music was music.Glad you are listening to the old stuff. Take care and stay safe!!!
Peter Montagnon Word
Back in the early '70's, before their breakup, Grand Funk Railroad sold out every show. Period.
What a performance, I thought I was coming here to watch a reaction and I'm the one doing the reaction. Love it.
I was 17 when this album came out!🤣😢 Also in '69, we got the debut albums from Led Zeppelin, Bob Seger, and Black Sabbath!🥴🤯 What a great time to be a teenager!😲♥️🤣
Grand Funk Railroad and Black Sabbath were the bane of my mother's existance.....
Yes was firing up right about then, too. So many great bands!
I was 14....but I was wearing out the vinyl of the Red Album already 😃
@@rowanspiritwalker6667 Bless your mother, son...you knew right there she was on the right track, right? 🙂
@@fonsecorona, I was my mother's daughter, who picked up a bass at age 14 thanks to listening to Mel Schacher and Geezer Butler...40 years later I still haven't put it down, and had a hell of a lot of fun along the way :D
My Lord, have not heard this one in years, & never seen it live. Great song, thanks for sharing!
Fantastic
These dudes are now in their 70's. Rock on.
This is blowing my 42 year old mind. I’m regretting not listening to my dad’s Grand Funk albums as a kid. 😭
God, I love you digging our hippy music!
Ahhh...1969! 🥴I turned 17 that year! 😁 First albums for Grand Funk Railroad, Bob Seger, Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, Z Z Top, and Pink Floyd, just to mention a few! 🤯What a great time to be alive! 🤗 My first concert was Led Zeppelin in 1970! 🤘♥️ Love your show! Keep it up! 😊
I was "negative 1" lmao
Dam, I was negative 2 but I caught up fast! Never going to hear music like that again I fear,although the early 90’s rocked, but nothing like this funkalicious groove right here. 💜🤘🏿💜
Grand Funk Live is the first album I bought. I then went to see them at The Charlotte Coliseum for my very first concert. That was 47 years ago. It was the gateway to an incredible musical journey that continues today. Thank you Grand Funk for leading me down the path of the finest Blues and Rock 'N' Roll.
GET THEM IN THE FREAKING HALL OF FAME ALREADY!!!!!!
William Cabell the HOF is a joke, I’m glad they are not in it, they are too damn good.
TOP THE OF THE HEAP,they do more with less,mark is playing a 200 dollar aluminum guitar,mel has a 300 dollar bass and just look a the kit don's playing,yeah they are the real deal,ask LED ZEPPLIN
@@strattuner lmao yea love zeppelin, love grand funk, and love that story
It's a Badge of Honor NOT to be in the Crock & roll hall of shame.
there 's not a seat or room in that damn hall for the likes of GRAND FU NK AND THAT'S A FACT-----------THEY WERE TOO GOOD
Now that people is how it’s done !!!!! They put the funk into Rock and Roll.
I'm your captain, is an epic song by this band that I think you will like. Props to you bro, for listening to and enjoying all this great old stuff. You will be a better person for it.
this song is one of the reasons i learnt how to play bass guitar. the groove is fantastic
I bought a bass solely because I heard Mel play for the first time
I use to listen to this with my dad.. this brought back some good memories..thankyou for this reaction💚
Your dad has good taste in music.
getting into a funky rock band a lot of people loved and forgot about, very cool young man! The more kinds of music you expose your ears too, the more you will surprise yourself with actually liking a lot of it. Well done!
I’m glad that you said, “funky rock band.” Because I was thinking that this is ‘Funk meets Rocks meets Blues.’ I hear all three elements in this performance. And it is straight-up 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 They killed it fo sho.
This take me back to a time , when I played GFR so loud in my bedroom ,that my mom would bang on the wall to lower the volume .well now I'm in my Twilight years alone at my Ranch with my friends Don ,Mel , and Mark so I play them ever louder ,this is from an old Rocker with a young Heart ,keep safe and piece out .🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸
Aah, the bong-rattling bass of Mel Schacher.
In caught them in 1975 in SoCal.. my ears are still ringing!!lol :)
Matt Groening is obviously drum ignorant to even jokingly label Don as merely "competent."
I've heard of them, but never listened. Wow. What a band!
You must have heard "We're an American Band" Its still played on radio..👍
Yes same!! Was discovering the 1st episode of Sesame Street when they came out and never heard this song before tonight!
Grand Funk Railroad is amazing. You have to listen to more of them. They are an amazing band, so talented and they put out just some amazing music. They had so much funky sound for being just three dudes. Such a power trio! Love blasting them on the way to the beach. 🏖 With a cooler full of beers on a hot summer day.
These guys sold out Shea Stadium in New York faster than the Beatles. I saw them in Lake Charles, LA at the civic center and the mass of people that couldn't get in was huge. Kids today have no idea what they missed. Straight guitar to amp with no bullshit in between.
The bet some of the people who couldn't get in the concert came down from Fort Polk because some of them knew the next stop for them was Vietnam! That's go's to show you that everybody wanted to see Grand Funk Railroad live in concert.
These guys are the personification of FUNK! So many great songs, glad you checked out the live version of this one my brother. Definitely check out more by this group, T.N.U.C is another great live video from 1974 you should react too.
HendrixJHE Classic Rock Video Archive And then there is Betty Davis, the GRANDE DAME of the dirty, raw & real.. i bow down to this lady
Bass tone on that just isn’t as good or loud as the one from the 1970 live album
Can you believe that this kind of rock in’ funk sound was around the same time as crap from the Osmund Brothers???
I've been a BIG GFR fan for over 50 years now and this never gets old. Timeless talent. Thanks for bringing this to a whole new generation
This was my all time favorite band. Saw them many times at the LA Forum. Black Sabbath opened for them, and that was a two night trip.(1970) Last night performance I went in as a twenty year old, and came out twenty one year young! Great way to break a right of passage moment in ones life. I felt Mark had one of the best rock and roll voices ever. Best live show everybody grooving hard, Grand Funk was one of the loudest bands out there. Mark used to get down on his knees and just lean back and wail on his guitar at the edge of the stage. (earlier days) Girls would go up and run their hands up and down his legs! Man I envied him! I also got to meet the boys a couple times out at Los Angeles Airport. (LAX) They were the nicest guys to a young guy still buzzin from the concert the night before. Just down to earth... I love reading the comments from fans who saw and grooved to this band. Well I am 71 years young, still rockin' and I know that is why my generation are still out kickin azz and taking names. It's only a number....turn it up :)
The bass in this is COLD! Most don't notice this. The bass holds the song together. Love this song and video! The band is tight.
I saw these guys live once and only once at MSG here in NYC in 1972 with Freddie King. Lotta fun, great onstage band.
GFR sold out Shea Stadium faster than the Beatles.
This is straight up soul music. Thank you for the reaction!!
IMO this is by far the best version of this song.
Been knowing them since they came out!
Yeah, I’m old(er).
Glad to see younger folk as yourself discovering them and other groups from back in (my) the day!
Good reaction!
Love this song! GFR is vastly under respected.
Tim, you just saw the greatest high performance jam on a basic level in the history of Rock!
Yesssss!!! I feel all right! Grand Funk Railroad my all-time favorite band, I've been fortunate enough to see them 8 times..
50 years ago. Unbelievable....Gotta be kid'n me
They made a 3 piece sound like a 6 piece, the reverb on the mic helped. Hardest working musicians of the late 60s early 70s imo.
Honey do you know what a nickle bag is?
Bands in 60s n 70s had singing drummers a lot.
Ozark Mountain Daredevils had a great drummer singer.
Four finger bag..😉😎😎
@@marjoryarmstrong6953 🌞 🕶 Right on sister
@Atheos B. Sapien .😎. My lungs would have given out...Lol..Good Times, Good Times. ..😉😎
1 finger in a plastic sandwich bag😎😎😎😎😎
Teresia Diane Sister that was definitely the three man band era trapeze you are the music we’re just the band Medusa James gang rides again live at Carnegie Hall and of course Grand Funk And then much later ZZ Top rush
Love Grand Funk Railroad!!!!!! Saw them many times in concert back in the early 70s
Wow!! I thought I knew my music!! I missed this one! Thanks for reacting!! Look forward to more!! From Tennessee
Oh yeah!! I love it!! Great reaction!! Keep surprising us!! You're on a roll!!
I was watching the FIRST SEASON of Sesame Street when this came out. Pretty sure Mama listened to this while making my PB&J
Foot Stomping Music by GF
Mean mistreator is as slow as they go. One of the few rock bands I listened too. I was R&B, Philly Soul, Motown, Funk but I liked these guys.
Saw them in Asbury Park that summer. Good memories.
Mark Farner is still in great shape and his voice is still amazing. I saw him a few years back and he was smoking hot, with a braid that ran down his back!
ONE OF MY ALL-TIME FAVORITES✌❤
Paranoid off the Mark, Don and Mel album is badass. Thanks for checking out Grand Funk!
Farner rarely looks down at his guitar. Amazing.
Also amazing is that GUITAR is in the rock and roll hall of fame. Yet Grand Funk Railroad is NOT!!
Mr DMc which is an absolute atrocity
@@MickLoud999 for real - the guitar is in?
Thanks for showing some love for GFR. Classic
I saw these guys with 38 Special (or maybe Cheap Trick, I forget) at BelTerra Casino a looong time ago.
Good grief. That bass work is amazing.
My daughter’s father introduced me to their music and I’ve been a fan ever since. Rest his soul... he had great taste in music, and women obviously. Lol 😉
Your reactions rock, because you listen to the whole thing before commenting!
25 or 6 to 5 -Chicago live at Tanglewood 1970.
I think you mean 25 or 6 to 4
For a three man band in 1969 ?
Limited technology ?!
Unbelievable talent !!!!!
What a group.What they did with their instruments and sound back then was amazing.
Grand Funk were amazing, but regarding the comment "first time I seen a drummer sing" - give Rare Earth a listen, their lead singer was the drummer Check out any of their songs especially "I just wanna celebrate" and "born to wander"
I love these guys. I knew them when I was a teenager. Thanks kiddo 🍑 Rock on
React to Rare Earth’s version of “Get Ready” the only white band playing for Motown at the time, the live version kicks butt
If you want to see a drummer sing, you should check out The Eagles and Don Henley playing drums and singing his @$$ off!! "Desparado" " Hotel California" and more!! They're my second favorite band!!
Henley isn't much of a drummer
Rock will Never Die. I love your open mind and your open heart. You have my RESPECT !
Grand Funk Railroad, the working man's band, from Flint Michigan
These guys couldn't keep records on the shelves of record stores.
They sold them as quick as they made them.
I could tell you liked this one, great reaction my brother, Keep them coming!
Andrew Schultz Grand Funk was my very first album I bought at a very young age probably 1975 or 1976 that made me 9 or 10 jamming young! Great band!
@@ronaldknisley9792, I started listening to them in '69, my brother , sister, cousin's, and their friends were all fans.
They had me started at the age of 6.
And I thank them for that.
I have never heard this.....freakin' awesome! Thanks foe sharing. Some of the best guitar soloing I have ever heard
Grand funk railroad...I'm your captain/Closer to home
If you like this one, you should check out People, Let's Stop the War or TNUC from these guys. Very funky, but very rocking band, Grand Funk Railroad.
YES.....and "Are You Ready"......the live version.
i loved playing this on the drums up in my attic bedroom. Drove the parents crazy and all the kids would be standing in the alley listening to me. keep it up ! i love seeing the kids today getting into the real music of our time. no playing with the computer and bits, just real music !
OH MY GOD!! They were SO great! Of course, THIS one of their songs that was NEVER played on Top 40 radio stations, so believe it or not, this is my first time hearing/seeing this song/performance. That BASS! Those screaming, raspy vocals. How could anyone sit still while hearing/seeing this performance.
Saw them in concert a long time ago 😎
I’m obsessed with this, now. My dad has always loved Grand Funk, and I like a lot of their songs, but I did not not know they got down THIS hard! Wow.
Karen Carpenter played drums while she sang and so did Phil Collins both as a solo artist and as a member of Genesis. Please hear Ticket To Ride/Carpenters and In The Air Tonight/Phil Collins. Also hear World Of Confusion/Genesis. Great music by great drummers. Btw, Grand Funk Railroad/I'm Your Captain (Closer To Home).
Seriously Bro, the 1071 version live is the best recording of Inside Looking Out.
Loved me some GFR - fine choice YoungMan! Wish we had more videos of the band Mountain too. Any Mountain lovers still around?
I thought Mark's guitar was in the Hall of Shame for awhile? Greatest band ever!!!
It's still there.
The drummer sings lead on the song "We're An American Band." Check it out. It was a big hit for GRR. Raw talent! I was a teen in the 70's. They were amazing. Also watch their live version of "Heartbreaker".
Don Brewer also drummed with Bob Seger.
My first album I bought it in grade 5 in 69 turned on a few friends to it on a tape I made and brought to school. We all turned out to be rockers......Great band.
A basic drum set, a $200 guitar, and 3 guys barely out of high school in a TV studio with only a couple of dozen in the audience, and it blows me away every time I watch it! One of the greatest live performances ever captured on film.
Now this? Is the music from my day. The 70s. It was a wonderful time that today's kids will never know. And for that? I apologize.
Check this out bro-ruclips.net/video/psFdqiPfhmg/видео.html
We used to party hardy back in these days with GFR! Saw them every time they came in, Detroit knew how to rock!
I love this music , l had this on an 8 track❤️ Thanks, kiddo!!!
Saw these guys in concert so long ago the drummer did a fantastic drum solo and at the end of the solo he was literally banging his head on his snare drum the whole place went crazy , long live Grand Funk Railroad!!!
My all time Favorite rock band....Grand Funk Railroad!
Love watching you react to this great performance !! America's POWER TRIO !! In their day, they ROCKED !! When they opened a show for someone,
they always "Up-Staged" the main act, even Led Zep !! With a following of Rabid fans they soon became the Main Act !! And filled stadums across America and the Globe !! btw, When they opened for Rod Stewart and the Faces,
the crowd Boo'ed Rod Stewart off the stage !! GFR was the originaters of "Stadium Rock" they sold out Shea,
in 72-hours !! The Beatles took 3-weeks to sell-out Shea !! I saw them in '71 at Pirates World in Dania, Fl.
Promoters sold 15.000 tickets for a 10,000 venue and the people rioted and over-turned 3 Miami police cars !! If their manager (a friend) hadn't taken every penny and left them NOTHING, they would have been the biggest Band EVER !! 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, Michigin (except maybe the GM Buick). Long Live GFR and Mark Farner !!
These were my boys in the day. First concert I ever attended was GFR. They totally ROCKED!!!! the place down. 30 k people were there. About 71.
It took the Beatles two weeks to sell out their 1965 Shea Stadium show.
Grand Funk Railroad did it in 72 hours in 1972.... and the authorities almost shut down the show midway through because the fans jumping around and the wattage put out by the sound system almost damaged the structural integrity of the stadium.
They worked their tales off..
I love that you listen to all the music that made during all my years and that I grew up on! So fun to watch you listen and react
I have said this a million times, that damn Mel sho can thump that bass, best one in rock & roll!
When I was 17 in 84' I heard Closer To Home and was like "Holy fuckin' shit! Who the fuck're these guys!?" and that was it after that, I love these motherfuckers! White soul!
Nonstop kick ass rock and roll from start to finish
I believe they opened 1 time for Led Zeppelin and only 1 time. Seems Zeppelin’s management didn’t want them again due to them upstaging them. GFR had so much energy in concert. I’m so glad to be of an age to have seen all the great bands when they were just starting and grow over the years
It was worse than that. Grand Funk was kicking ass, and Led Zepplin was very intimidated. LZ's management told GF to stop playing and get off the stage. The band refused to cut their set short, so LD cut power to the stage. It's hard to continue playing when the headliner band cuts off all the power to your equipment.
1969 Red álbum, grand funk railroad , Full álbum , wonderfull
Seeds of greatness, until jealousy and greed crept in. They opened for Zepplin and embarrassed them till Zepplins manager litterly pulled the 🔌 plug to end the misery. Full disclosure, I'm a Zepplin fan also, but I feel GFR would have be as big if not bigger if the BS don pulled on Mark never happened.
I agree wholeheartedly the most underrated overlooked band . And they're showmanship and there's stage presence unquestionably among the best ever please
I was 12 years old when this came out and loved their sound ever since
You should check out "In Need" off their notorious "Red" album.
I was 12 when this was done... but I’ve never heard of them! I must listen to more!
There you go ! I seen them play this , it was great, thanks for checking the good stuff out, you kids dont know what your missin, good job
Yep. Was there at Cobo '69. Ears still ringing. Farner's still singing. And playing.
This is the band that sold out Shea Stadium faster than the Beatles!!!!! True story.
