First hats of to you for putting in the time and energy to add those text comments to the reaction. Well done, great reaction. I agree with everything you pointed out. Its an incredible raw performance by three guys in the pocket with the music flowing through them.
Don’t feel bad as a young person, if you never heard of this band…. The fact that you are willing to explore what was going on during these epic times, shows that you are truly opened minded!… may you enjoy the journey!
Mia, between 1969-74 Grand Funk was one of THE biggest bands in the world. Between 1969-76 they put out 12 albums and all of them are excellent. “Closer To Home” is one of their best songs, as well as being the title of one of their best albums which was released in June of 1970 and went right to number one.
@@TerryKrysinski Actually both, "I'm Your Captain (Closer To Home)" is how it is listed most times, but you also see it listed at times as "I'm Your Captain" and at other times "Closer To Home".
Don't feel bad Miaaaa. You're just young. My first concert was 1970, I was 12 and GFR was my first and "Inside Looking Out" and was unreal. Now I'm 65 yrs. old and still jammin to this band.
Grand Funk was an amazing band in concert first as a three man band from 69 to 71 then in 72 they added a keyboardist. They were among the biggest bands in the world. The are indeed under-rated in history.
They played like this every night. Their concerts were usually 2-3 hours long. This is probably the greatest live rock & roll performance of all time, along with Ten Years After's "I'm Going Home" live at Woodstock in 1969. Perhaps you can react to that one as well. Subbed!!!
Welcome to the Grand Funk Railroad rabbit hole. Check out "We're An American Band," "Rock and Roll Soul," "The Locomotion," "Some Kind of Wonderful." and the seminal "I'm Your Captain."
Great reaction !! a true "Power TRIO" !! In their day, they ROCKED !! GFR Always gave it 110% and Left their hearts on the stage.They closed each show with "Inside Looking Out" and brought the "House Down" !! They had a RABID Fan base. (mostly chicks). 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 !!
It's really great to see the young generation reacting to the songs we grew up with when music was a bit different ...this band was probably the best live band there was....this song I rocked out to when I wore younger man's clothes....yes they are underrated...they aren't even in the rock and roll Hall of Fame....react to some Pink Floyd live performances
Yes! My dad works in radio. Growing up, we got to meet different people who would come into the studio now and then. My sisters and I would have a collection of autographs from different artists, comedians, sports figures, etc. My dad also threw poker parties every weekend. One man, probably the sweetest man I’ve ever met, that was there every weekend, was Don Brewer! I didn’t know he was the drummer of the band, Grand Funk Railroad, for a long time. He was just Don to us! When we found out who he was, my sister asked him one day, “why do you guys repeat the same thing over and over again?” (Referring to the song Closer To Home - I’m Your Captain). My sisters and I also made up a dance to their version of Locomotion! Lol!
@@757optim Aahhh! My dad’s name is Mark, that’s why I got confused! Lol I really don’t know what happened. After we moved back up to a Michigan from Florida, I didn’t hear much about him or the band.
My older brother took me to see them at Cobo Hall in Detroit in April 1971.. just before I left for Vietnam.. the opening band was a group named Bloodrock.. their big hit was a song named DOA.. both good and bad times
CONSIDER THIS...WHAT U JUST WATCHED was from 1969...these young men were at that time 20 & 21 yrs.old!!! The BASS PLAYER was 18 when he joined da band...KILLING-IT in 1969...WoW! I'm a 70 yr.old Bass Player NOW -But "back-n-da-day" -bands I was in did this as a 'finale' (70's).... My Jazz Bass / Sunn cabs (2) & Acoustic 370 head 'GRAWLED'...they're using Avalon-West Amps.
Thanks for listening to some of the finest rock of all time. I was 15 when this came out and it was awesome growing up to the music the next 40 plus years.
I never thought the performance was going to end , but that was a good thing ...Such a raw but brilliant energetic performance by each band member! Fantastic reaction once again Mia!!...Edit ...Never feel embarrassed for not knowing certain things, you are open to learning which is great in itself. There's lots of music I'm not familiar with , and I've been round the block a few times Lol. I watch you because of your reaction , and you do that beautifully!!!❤️💯
Same Here Paul , And I Was Loving Every Bit Of It Lol . I Love When You All Introduce Me To Such Legendary Performances . I Was Blown Away ! Awe , This Means A Lot . I'm So Happy You Said That . Thank You For Your Reassurance And Positive Feedback ♡
You'd be blown away by how many legendary trios there were during this time, it blew my mind. Grand Funk can legitimately state for the record that the Beatles sold out Shea stadium in roughly 2 weeks and they went and did it in a weekend
foot stompin music, we're an american band, locomotion, and thier masterpiece I'm your captain/closer to home. fun fact; Beatles sold out Shea Stadium in 2 weeks Grand Funk in 72 hours. The crowd was so crazy jumping up and down that the entire stadium was oscillating causing concern for the fire marshall and almost closing the show down. true story!
Its so great to see how you appreciated this! Ive been a fan since I was 16 and saw them twice in the early 70s. This video was what it was like to see them live. Great reaction!
This came out when I was 16 and I didn't realize how lucky I was with the music that year of Woodstock. Grand Funk didn't even play but they should have. Good reaction Mia.
Perfect reaction to what in my mind was the greatest Rock Jam in History. "Raw" was the perfect word to use for their sound when they came out of Flint Michigan in 1969. Jan Wenner, that scumbag, used that word to diss the Band in a Rolling Stone Review back in 1969 but Karma just hit Wenner when he was thrown out of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Nominating Committee recently.
GFR was one of the first concerts I attended back around '72 at the fabulous Forum. We danced through the whole concert. I wouldn't say they are underrated it's just that there are many many great rock bands out there. Great reaction and love the Astronaut suit. 😊👍👍👍
Bassist Mel Schacher was 18, Guitarist and lead vocal Mark Farner and drummer - backing vocalist Don Brewer were both 21. Farner and Brewer both sang lead. Brewer sang lead on "We're An American Band" - ruclips.net/video/9F69etVKuUs/видео.html This is from their sold out Shea Stadium show in 1971. ruclips.net/video/9F69etVKuUs/видео.html
The keyboard player later on that joined lived 3 houses from me as a kid. Saw all these guys jam in the yard and porch of the house.: fame never ruined them
I do believe that I read somewhere that this was (one of) Grand Funk's auditions for a record company, as it were. Hence, the lack of audience response. EXCELLENT performance, though, eh?
They were the biggest band in the US for some years, even sold out Shea Stadium faster than the Beatles! They were huge, huge while playing live, had a bunch of hits and also very popular worldwide. They opened for Led Zeppelin in the US at one point and LZ's manager was getting nervous because they were just killing it. They told the band to cut their set short but they refused and told the crowd about it. The crowd flipped out so hard that Led Zeppelin just left without even going on stage, lol.
Grand Funk was the biggest live band in the world from 1969 - 1975... bigger than Led Zepplin and so many others. Mark Farner who is the lead guitarist in this is one of the most talented front men to ever walk on a stage. He wrote 90% of the songs, was the lead vocalist at such a high level, played bass early in his career, played drums, harmonica and was the keyboard player while they were a three man band. Amazing talent!
The song is actually about being incarcerated. It’s based on a song from prison life. Yes, they are fantastic!! A band I wish I’d seen back in the day!!
They were the real sh#t in the late 60s and early 70s! The later addition of a keyboardist really rounded out their sound. In 1971 they played a concert at Shea Stadium in New York with a capacity of over 55,000 people. The concert sold out in three hours! For comparison, The Beatles also played there to a sold out crowd. The difference is that it took The Beatles three MONTHS to sell out their show.
Unlike other reactors your physical expressions are organic real vs pat and robotic, your text comments are truly insightful and spot on. Real band instrumental skill and singing died in terms of what's popularly broadcast, in the 1990s...Sampling digitization and autotuned followed.
Next stop. The group is Chicago. The song is the live performance of 25 or 6 to 4. You will be just as blown away by even more instrumental goodness. Enjoy
How how ..yes it is I am 70 ... We grew up listening right to GFR for 1971.. Our early college days. The beginning of the heavy rock music...I had a double album of them MARK DON & MEL - 33 RPM. LP s. There is a song ship or Captain ??!! Fading memories Even Carlos ( santana ) surfaced thru Solo Sacrifice in Woodstock View that..thing HD version is available 😂🎉 Late 60 ies to early 80 ies was the best best era of all the western music put together... Writing from Madras ( Chennai ) Capital of Tamil Nadu - south India Regard & cherrs
Damn that messenger guitar with whatever pickups they replaced the stock ones with in that semi-hollow taped F-hole body guitar with that metal neck had the absolutely funkiest clean guitar sound in all rock.............
Did you know you just watched what's considered the tightest performance ever? Only two are comparable: Led Zeppelin; Since I Been Loving You; live at Madison Square Garden and Santana; Soul Sacrifice; at Woodstock. While you're at Woodstock, a do not miss is Jimi Hendrix's rendition of The Star Spangled Banner. These are all see before you die performances. And will get you a lot of likes and hopefully new subscribers!
Mia once again like usual a great reaction I loved the reaction the faces the chair dancing anybody can tell you genuinely enjoyed it and since you enjoyed it you have got to check out The Marshall Tucker Band song Can't You See total enjoyment Can't wait to see you tonight on the live show
Thank You Jason , Your Feedback Is Awesome As Usual . Whew , I'm Nervous But Excited At The Same Time To Check Out Marshall Tucker . I Have No Clue What I'm In For But I'm Looking Forward ♡
Cream, Rush, Z Z Top, the James Gang, and the Jimi Hendrix Experience were also 3 man bands from my senior year in high school ('69-'70)!🔥🤗 It was a fantastic time to be young and crazy!💯🤯🤪❤️✌️
Bright Angel, thank you for all the hard work and time you put into your videos. Your commentary is always. Intelligent, witty, and always heartfelt. Please keep on playing the many different styles of music in your program.
Mia Mark Farner, singer left GFR for his solo stuff. He is now in Christian Music. While his bandmates, Don (drums) and Mel (Bass) continues as GFR with new singer today.
First hats of to you for putting in the time and energy to add those text comments to the reaction. Well done, great reaction. I agree with everything you pointed out. Its an incredible raw performance by three guys in the pocket with the music flowing through them.
Awesome Feedback , I Truly Appreciate That Anthony ♡
Don’t feel bad as a young person, if you never heard of this band…. The fact that you are willing to explore what was going on during these epic times, shows that you are truly opened minded!… may you enjoy the journey!
What a nice reaction from a beautiful young lady. Grandpa and grandma still Rock like this i know wife and i are proof ❤
LOL!! We had the best music and the coolest cars. You'll never be as cool as your grandparents!
When this performance took place, the youngest member was 18 years old, and the oldest was 21
Fired as backup to Zeppelin for being to damn good!😊❤
The Late 60s was the start of Modern Heavy Rock like this. Great reaction Mia! Your reaction was how WE reacted to these songs back in the day.😀
Thank You Chuck , Love The Feedback ♡
Mia, between 1969-74 Grand Funk was one of THE biggest bands in the world. Between 1969-76 they put out 12 albums and all of them are excellent.

No, The album and the song , is Closer to Home. @@TerryKrysinski
No-Sorry...the song is titled 'I'm Your Captain'@@47tooter
This was the norm for us back in the day, pure talent no frills
Don't feel bad Miaaaa. You're just young. My first concert was 1970, I was 12 and GFR was my first and "Inside Looking Out" and was unreal. Now I'm 65 yrs. old and still jammin to this band.
The stank face, chair dancing, AND the air guitar all in one video!!! AWESOME!!!!
Great reaction!!! Love it!!!!

Grand Funk was an amazing band in concert first as a three man band from 69 to 71 then in 72 they added a keyboardist. They were among the biggest bands in the world. The are indeed under-rated in history.
What's even more incredible than this performance or this band is that still to this day they are not in the rock and roll hall of fame!
They wasn't playing around! Such a great live performance! Another great reaction Mia!❤
Right Mike ?! ZERO Games Were Played On That Stage . Love Your Feedback As Always And Thank You ♡
I turned 21 in 1969 and this is still my favorite grand funk song ❤❤❤❤
I was 17 in 69 when I first heard this and it's still great especially now with you and your generation showing appreciation...
You dont listen to Grand Funk you feel Grand Funk😊🎉
They played like this every night. Their concerts were usually 2-3 hours long. This is probably the greatest live rock & roll performance of all time, along with Ten Years After's "I'm Going Home" live at Woodstock in 1969. Perhaps you can react to that one as well. Subbed!!!

One of best live band of all time great music great song
We're An American Band, Some Kind Of Wonderful, & Closer To Home. Were very big hits. They are what comes to mind first. For me.
It's really great to see the young generation reacting to the songs we grew up with when music was a bit different ...this band was probably the best live band there was....this song I rocked out to when I wore younger man's clothes....yes they are underrated...they aren't even in the rock and roll Hall of Fame....react to some Pink Floyd live performances
The best thing about Funk is it brought people together from all races to rock.
One of may favorite bands and one the most underrated. IMO
Real music, real men, no auto tune. Fucking rock and roll

Saw them play live several times. They always played with this intensity and passion. Truly awesome
Definitely and example of showing up and showing out..great choice 👌
One of the FIRST Bass parts as I was a fresh Bass player. Also being very close to I was jamming to this as a year old and LOVED it.
I saw this back in ‘69 and still enjoy it today as I did then. I especially like the reactions of young people like you.
They great band and live music is the best
GFR was one of the first concerts I attended back around '72 at the fabulous Forum. We danced through the whole concert. I wouldn't say they are underrated it's just that there are many many great rock bands out there. Great reaction and love the Astronaut suit. 😊👍👍👍
Glad you really enjoyed this great band from the late 60s to the mid 70s. I highly recommend Heartbreaker live 1974 by them next.
I knew these guys. Really good guys. Never got the recognition recognition they should have gotten. I love you. You are so awesome

Such a great live band. I don't know what else to say.
Can you imagine seeing this live in 1969. Mind blowing.
Great reaction . What a great band. Top ten all time
This was my favorite song growing up in the 70's.
Watch every performance of this song you can find 😊. Each time it is SO well done.
I do believe that I read somewhere that this was (one of) Grand Funk's auditions for a record company, as it were. Hence, the lack of audience response. EXCELLENT performance, though, eh?
So grateful we have this moment to enjoy forever!! 🔥
loved them in their time. they were great.
They were the biggest band in the US for some years, even sold out Shea Stadium faster than the Beatles! They were huge, huge while playing live, had a bunch of hits and also very popular worldwide. They opened for Led Zeppelin in the US at one point and LZ's manager was getting nervous because they were just killing it.

Power trio, right on. The astronaut suit might be too warm for you to watch grandpa. It’s OK to get up and rock. Lol.
The song is actually about being incarcerated. It’s based on a song from prison life. Yes, they are fantastic!! A band I wish I’d seen back in the day!!
I'm your Captain
Closer to Home is great Grand Funk tune...beautiful ending.
The host with the most...mmmm❤
They were the real sh#t in the late 60s and early 70s! The later addition of a keyboardist really rounded out their sound. In 1971 they played a concert at Shea Stadium in New York with a capacity of over 55,000 people. The concert sold out in three hours! For comparison, The Beatles also played there to a sold out crowd. The difference is that it took The Beatles three MONTHS to sell out their show.
Check out "I'm Your Captain" by them ! 😉
Detroit area talent. 🔥🔥🔥 I had this album when I was 14. Mostly regional but also more appreciated in Europe than the US at the time.
Unlike other reactors your physical expressions are organic real vs pat and robotic, your text comments are truly insightful and spot on. Real band instrumental skill and singing died in terms of what's popularly broadcast, in the 1990s...Sampling digitization and autotuned followed.
Next stop. The group is Chicago. The song is the live performance of 25 or 6 to 4. You will be just as blown away by even more instrumental goodness. Enjoy
Lead singer was just 19 years old. My era.
How how ..yes it is
I am 70 ... We grew up listening right to GFR for 1971.. Our early college days.
The beginning of the heavy rock music...I had a double album of them

Welcome to rockin' and freakin' roll!
Best live 3 piece performance I've ever seen. Great reaction!!!
GFR was the real deal, sold millions & millions of records and I don’t believe there still not in the Rock hall of Fame.
Classic, legendary performance!
Yes and still be be great decades after most of todays so called musician are forgotten. Jim
Did you know you just watched what's considered the tightest performance ever?
Only two are comparable:
Led Zeppelin; Since I Been Loving You; live at Madison Square Garden
and
Santana; Soul Sacrifice; at Woodstock.
While you're at Woodstock, a do not miss is Jimi Hendrix's rendition of The Star Spangled Banner.
These are all see before you die performances. And will get you a lot of likes and hopefully new subscribers!
They sold out 55,000 seat Shea Stadium (original home of New York Mets, faster than The Beatles)
