"The hotel detective was out of sight" is a colloquialism for he was really cool. I grew up with the band. They're from my hometown of Flint, Michigan. I went to school with Craig Frost's (keyboards) brothers, Scott and Jason. Scott was a badass keyboard player (RIP) with whom I played for several years. I was a pro for several years in part due to their influence on me as early as ten years old when I would watch them rehearsing in a neighbor's basement before they became famous. A little trivia. The Beatles sold out Shea Stadium in six weeks. Grand Funk did it in 72 hours - a record to this day! GFR - THE American band...!

@@LawrenCharles I'm also a musician and I'm 60 years old now and I haven't really played since before the pandemic and I don't have a direct influence story like that at all, but a lot of nearby connections, my cousin in Seattle went to the same high school as and and Nancy Wilson and apparently they would come back and jam in the gym during lunch time, and when I was a freshman in college I live with a senior who was from Topeka Kansas which is very close to here and he knew the band Kansas, and not only that, he actually had some of their hand-me-down band equipment Incorporated into his massive stereo system. Not only had I played instrument since I was quite young, and so I listen to tons of music and then also I was really inspired in my late teens and early 20s by local and Regional bands that you would go there live in these small venues and see how good these people were and what intensity they played with and there are eight billion bands out there that nobody knows about that were as good as anything you've heard on the radio. I'm serious. And so I ended up through my life playing music in bands and I love it. How many times have I felt that where there's people out there dancing their asses off to every little subtle thing you are doing. It's amazing.

The sing was written by Din Brewer, who along with Mel Schaker, back stabbed Mark Farner, and had him kicked out of the Grand Funk Railroad Co. Mark Farner was Grand Funk Railroad.

Grand Funk Railroad was the opening act for Led Zepellin went they played in Detroit in 1969. Grand Funk Railroad is from Flint Michigan. Flint is about an hour drive from Detroit and so that made Grand Funk hometown heroes. When Grand Funk Railroad played at this concert in Detroit the audience was extremely enthusiastic and were even lifting their chairs in the air. The manager of Led Zeppelin went up to the manager of Grand Funk Railroad when Grand Funk was playing and told Grand Funks manager to get his band off the stage. Then Led Zeppelins manager grabbed the other manager by the throat, lifted into to the air and told him that he meant immediately. One of Grand Funk Railroads musicians at that concert said that the electricity was then turned off for the guitars. The manager of Grand Funk Railroad went up to the microphone and told the audience that Led Zeppelin was scared to have them play. The audience then rioted and the concert was cancelled. To see how well Grand Funk Railroad performed during the same year that this concert took place, review a video of Grand Funk Railroad doing a live version of a song called Inside Looking Out.

Great song you picked by them, Andy & Alex! You want some FAT BASS, Alex? Then you have to listen to this one Grand Funk Railroad "Inside Looking Out" Live 1969. Mel's bass on this one is killer and so is the funk. Thanks you two!

The American Band concert was my high school graduation present to myself. Oct. 1974, Saint Paul Civic Arena, Saint Paul, MN. It's a shame you two youngsters missed out on the late 60's-early 70's music scene. You would have been right at home. Keep Rockin'.

For funk do “Inside Looking Out”. Bangers do the live version of “Footstompin’ Music” followed by “Rock and Roll Soul”. This was kind of an underground band for their first few albums. Crappy production values, especially guitar, but great songs. AWESOME LIVE BAND!

Andy and Alex, try GFR's "Feeling Alright". Pretty dang funky. Not over the top Bootsy funk, but stripped down and funky!

"I'm Your Captain/Closer to Home" and "Time Machine" were my favorites. Great reaction as always. I don't know what the average age of your audience is, (it might be interesting to find out) but I know they all think of you as friends they are sharing music with.... or you are sharing with them. Keep it up! You might enjoy "Slippin' Into Darkness" by War from 1971. It is more a funky grove than a banger, but what a groove kzitem.info/news/bejne/o32n2YOObZlqbKA

I know it just came across this way to the party but man you absolutely have to check out the B side of the 45 RPM single because this is the music from my high school years and of course I had the single like everybody did but that B-side is actually my favorite. It's a cover of a 1962 song by a black woman in a group that I can't recall sadly, but Wikipedia would know in an instant and I never knew it when I was a kid, I had no idea, but it's called do the locomotion. What a crazy heavy take on a Motown song. Oh my god. You have got to check this out and crank it as loud as you can. You want fat bass? This is the fattest bass you will ever hear. The only other point I would make is that this was a three piece. And if you see any video of their live performances you can see how three guys just like rush but of course in this rock Midwest colloquial whatever paradigm, they bring it and they actually bring it really hard. They are all so good.

I always heard that this song was written in response to their friendly competition with the British band Humble Pie who they often toured with. Just heard Farnum confirm this in an interview. They were both very hot. Please listen to some Humble Pie, Hot & Nasty is my fav. Thanks - good job guys.

Others have mentioned it but you must do the live version of "Inside Looking Out" It's 9 min plus but it goes too quick. All three members at the top of their game. You want bass? Check this one out.

Try “Superstition” by Beck, Bogart & Appice. It’s funky with good guitar work by Jeff Beck. It’s a cover of the Stevie Wonder song.

Guys, that's the "pop single" Grand Funk -- which was actually their decline. The first three albums are where it's at. Check out Sin's A Good Man's Brother -- actually anything from the "Red " album. The most "up front" bass EVER.

One of the greatest bangers of all time I highly highly recommend is Mississippi Queen by Mountain!! An early super group with Leslie West on lead guitar.
