    The originality - the expressiveness - the powerful vocals - the manic drumming - thundering bass - the guitar mastery - they etched their way into Rock history ..... Justin Bieber -- are you kidding me ?

      I know, it's sickening. GFR had more talent than all hip-hop and rap together. Janet Jackson is in the Rock Hall of Fame. Who's next, Pit Bull? WTF??

      Thank God I grew up listening to this great band and other wonderful artists in the 70`s and going to many concerts such as Fleetwood Mac opening for the Eagles , Chicago,Van Halen, Robin Trower, Boston, Aerosmith, Bad Company, Black Sabbath,UFO, Pat Benatar, Yes, Def Lepperd and others. For me the 70`s will always be my most favorite decade of rock music.

    Ah, brings back the days of playing the album cuts of great musicians, leaving radio versions far behind. Unleashed genius you had to stop, sit and focus all your attention on, surrendering to the power flowing from the speakers, the night filled with it, as compelling as classical program music, changing our sense of time...
    We were marked, changed by what came into the world's shared consciousness, through the souls of so many musicians. How fortunate we were who grew up during the sixties and seventies.

      Actually Rundgren did some great things on American band, but only the obscure things, spacy guitar parts etc. but I think they were going down before Rundgren, for ex. Flight of the Phoenix a lousy album.

    20 years ago Mark Farner played a smaller venue near Wright State University. I was definitely dressed for success. Short leather skirt and low cut top with heels. My ex and his brother were there. Pictures to prove it. He came off the stage and played the song to me. It was mesmerizing. He was so hot. I never thought it would be a day etched in my mind and memories. Wow
