Grand Funk Railroad - t.n.u.c

[cornholiyo2]

I got to meet Don last night. It was so awesome!

[hectorvera1982]

esta banda es la zorra de buena me marco para siempre.

[tchokola12]

The albums have been re-issued as 24 bit remasters, worth revisiting

[thejoj96]

Spell "tnuc" backwards.

[1985mike1985]

the favourite band of Homer Simpson!!

[alexander4766]

I wish i was as good as him on the drums but unfortunately i'm just starting out i'm a big fan of his!!! :)

[roadtec3]

@tjrtherocksponge I gotta tell ya...Donny Brewer is STILL an animal on the drums. He does an awesome solo that'll knock your socks off

[neilembo55]

Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa­aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa,Homer Simpson's fave band!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[BigBearVids]

and HEADBANGIN" was Born..!!

[karlssonb]

Its a bad title ....................

[1ragman1]

Farner still gets it, see him every year up here. Lives here in Northern Mich.

What a great presence on stage!!

[uptheironslml]

est baterista es un maldito :| toca super bn x3

[tibyv8]

That's how a drum solo should be: drumming, screaming, and bangin' the snare with your head!

[garjas1]

para mi esta banda es una de las mejores porque no es tan ruidosa como el death rock o incluso el heavy metal,tienen ritmo y ademas el baterista no necesito tantos tambores para hacer un buen solo,que esto de los famosos solos ya es viejo aunque ahora lo retoman,,,saludos a GRAND FUNK from Canada ademas la bateria simula a la LOCOMOTORA que tambien fue uno de sus emblemas d la banda

[leonlider01]

Grand Funk lo mejor ...desde Chile

[tobytyler07]

My cousin used to go to the school with the band and Mark Farner was a very good friend of his. I was along for the ride at the backstage parties

[gdkangas]

Arena rock icon’s, the first commercially successful American rock band, and even though the media hated them, the crowds loved them! In fact they broke the Beatles Shea stadium attendance record by selling out in just 72 hours,And if that’s not enough to convey how popular they were during that time then consider this…they opened for Led Zeppelin and manager Peter Grant gave the order to cut their power and have them removed from the stage because the audience responded so well to their show.

[DIBBLES21]

Did Don just use his head in that drum solo?? lol

[garjas1]

@DIBBLES21 yes he does,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

[grandfunklover]

Li amo troppo. Please back in Italy for a concert...

[chivisy]

@grandfunklover MOSTRUOSIIIII!!!!! scarica il concerto dal vivo di L.A. è da SBALLO!!!!!!!!

[grandfunklover]

Li amo da impazzire poco conosciuti in Italia, Ho tutti i loro dischi. Please back for a concert in Italy....

[bills8in]

I was in Viett Nam when i was listening to Grand Funk Railroad as much as i could,and we got to go to cambodia to a live concert they did for us troops in nam,I thought it was awesome then and still do they are still one of the greatest bands of all times

[whatthebollocks]

@bills8in that's cool dude, thanks for the service :)

[blueogrady]

This is when Music was still fun to play and not OVER PRODUCED.

[iwillrocknroll4eva]

Dddddaaaaaannnnng!

[ChimeraAZ]

This is energy and music at it's best! I saw these guys do this at the Salt Palace in Salt Lake City a loooong time ago,when they were still on top! The show they put on was incredible,I tell you.WHEEEEEEW!! Mark can still sing this great,too.Oh,and his hair was so long it was below his belt. He wound up cutting the pony tail off for charity,selling it for a whopping $13,000.00!

[micheal2009able]

T.N.U.C.,  If they spelled it correct it would have never made it on the album, it is a great song. Long live GRAND FUNK!!!!

[overtherainbow71]

AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!  EXCELENTEEEEE!!!!!!

[theoneandonlysarab]

damn he can scream!

[Sonja662]

I don't remember there being any energy drinks back them...These guys were the very BEST !!! So good in fact they opened up for Led Zepplin(also a great band) and were booed when GFR left the stage.

[rinker1096]

Mark, Don, and Mel. Saw them in 1996 at a county fair and saw the Chili Peppers at a much larger venue. If only the fools at the Peppers concert knew what they were seeing had already been done better 25 years prior.

[Orion579]

Is that Tommy Lee on drums? LOL

[ribinfo]

GODDAMN!.....that was the greatest thing i have ever seen.

[npauljarrett]

these guys dont need 2 be in the hall of fame because the shit people they have in there nw it wud just seem bitter sweet nw, plus any1 whos a fan of GFR knows there the best anyway so its all good. PS fuck Beiber

[yucchhiiowwee]

Are there any REALLY GOOD GFR tribute bands around? If so, I'd love to see some vids with them in it. ESPECIALLY doing this song. If anybody does do a tribute to GFR, they should have the same energy level as GFR otherwise, it would just be a waist of time, because that is one of the outstanding attributes of GFR!!

[47tooter]

@yucchhiiowwee Yes , There is the " Back City Rockers " A Japanese Band , and they are very good ! They have a bunch of videos of them doing Grand Funk songs.. And they do T.N.U.C. But the one I was impressed with is Black Licorice.. Watch a few videos , They are fun.

[yucchhiiowwee]

@47tooter Hey hey, I appreciate that. I'm going to check that out for sure! Thanks. And just so you know, GFR was the very first concert I ever went to in either 1973 or 74 during the shinin' on tour. Wet willie band opened for them.

[estyle40]

Fair exchange: put Grand Funk in the Hall Of Fame, take out ABBA, Lovin Spoonful, Rascals, Mamas & The Papas, and you got a deal. People talk about Madonna all the time, but I do believe she belongs in. She redefined pop culture as we know it, so give her that much. Too bad she don`t rock like this!!!

[wahyeh]

Bonzo was a great drummer but Don is THE BEST EVER!!! Who else could take a small drum kit and play the living hell out of it?!?

Also Mel Schacher is one of the best bass players ever :)

[2xUeL]

Talk about rudiments

[thebig450]

I grew up in the 70's listening to these guys. I still have a few of there albums, but don't have a turntable to play them. I've started watching them and there old songs on YouTube and I had forgotten how good Mark, Don, and Mel really were. In t.n.u.c Don is really outstanding on the drums. He is often over looked when it comes to Rocks all time best drummers, but I think he should be in the top ten.Grand Funk is Bad To The Bone.

[whatthebollocks]

@thebig450 so is george thorogood. lol

[DanielGonzalezC]

Does anybody know if THIS version of the song is featured in any live cd of GFR?

[47tooter]

@DanielGonzalezC I beileve its on both live cds , caught in the act , and live album.

[CVAN687478]

Rogers drums & REMO Heads

[vivelavidarocka]

He's not Bonzo, but fuck this guy got soul for rock and roul. Like the band, weren't the best in their instrument, but like a band, were on top. Anyways, who said you needed to be one to create good old raw and energetic music like this.

[CVAN687478]

critics use to tear up Brewer in print but i think after all these years he's got the last laugh.................

[MrPurpleZeppelin]

Speedy & powerful...perfect. Thanks for posting.

[DIXIEJEFF]

Saw these guys in Mobile, Al. 73'ish.....too much smoke under the bridge, but

at a mere 14 years of age I knew this was a powerful band. Other concerts had me on my feet sometimes....but this one, I never stopped jumping and lost my voice (plus some hearing) still remember Don's drum solo, closed the show with it. wow , what a show ,hay has anyone spelled this song backwards, cause that's the real name of the song but the thought police wouldn't allow it, Mean Mistreater is my fav.

[katyshalo]

@DIXIEJEFFdrum solo was the best

[MarcosBrom]

DFefinitivamente este es el verdadero Rock, me gusta el Rock, amo demasiado el Rock, quien hable mal del Rock es mi enemigo, quien ama el Rock esta conmigo, llevo el Rock circulando por mis venas y mi corazon late al compaz del maximo Rock, ahora diganme, alguien conoce un baterista mejor que este?? si es asi, quiero verlo y.......... QUE VIVA EL ROOOCK mas naaaaaaaaa

[MarcosBrom]

Definitivamente, este es el verdadero Rock, lo maximo en musica, yo amo el Rock, por mis venas circula puro Rock y mi corazon lat al compaz del Maximo Rock, ahora diganme: hay alguien que conosca un baterista mejor que este?? si es asi, muestrenmelo, y....... que VIVA EL ROOOOOCK mas naaaaaaaaa

[TheKarzlo]

да, да! ритм прежде всего!

[CLEVELANDJOHNNY]

Don Brewer was A Tremendous Drummer Live in the day. ( Still is ). Saw GRAND FUNK on 4 tours and Don, Mark , Mel and Craig On keys for 2 of those tours Hammered. One of the most underated bands. From the 1st song onward you were out of your seat just dancing in the aisles. It would be great for a 40th reunion put on video. If they could put aside Business concerns ! But Music is about the BIZ so we can only hope.

[Realitytourist]

Don Brewer is a whole drum line by himself.

[StillRiverEditions1]

The best part is the roadie wiping up the puddle of sweat under the drummer after the song.

[StillRiverEditions1]

The best part is the roadie wiping up the puddle of sweat under the drummer after the song.

[kevslady306]

drum solo is amazin

[The1952sonny]

jedna od najboljih grupa 70 godina

[krevedborg]

Ненавижу барабанные соло ))

[KerrysMusic]

I saw this performed live in a free concert in Hyde Park, London on July 3rd, 1971. It was one of the finest drum solos I have ever witnessed and it left 100,000+ Brits speechless. Don Brewer, world-class drummer. Period.

[androydxnt]

me encanta esa rola !!!!!!!

[Luckzzz]

I wish it was released in DVD quality.. I would cry for it.. Or maybe a remastered version.. I wish nothing more in my life .. period

[jacqo817]

sweet jam!

[DrewFireset]

I love this band and this drum solo is superhot groovin´!

[wcoxy2003]

the sky wasn't even the limit for these guys. truly one of the greatest bands that ever was and ever will be.

[mightybeeb]

Don Brewer is the most "FUN" drummmer in rock and roll...he loves to play and it shows

thank you Don!!!!

[dlm9293]

that was some trippy shit

[hedgehogbrett]

I agree with Ruraljohn !! Absolutely !

[scatterd100]

Oh, I agree with your comment about Donnie's drumming. He's a machine!

[sttroy]

donnie and bonzo ....they did it all with one bass drum !!!!!!!!

awsome 

[slippyt22]

fantastic

[roxiboxi1]

very very great and hotttttttttttttttttt!!!

[HAMAGINKO]

GFR・・

Good Band＾＾

[TurboDog08]

Wow..I used to listen to this at my friends house. He had an older brother. I was probably about 12 he was a year older than me. That puts me it about 1969-70. This and Led Zeppelin. My introduction to rock other than the more popular stuff back then. The only album I ever owned by GFR was the red album. I'm sure I still have it too. Three guys. Rock n Roll... What more??

[jessenogara]

don brewer such an amazing performance...

[generatrix999]

Brewer can sing and play, pretty aqwsome

[bluesdrummer715]

Funny how Mel started off with the wrong bass line! Love when that happens :)

[yourunclehank1]

This is the band that invented the concert-jam

[091558yew]

DUH>>!!!! Grand funkie... geez..

[xxbulletx]

Don Brewer sorta reminds me of Animal off the muppets!

[franz909]

There's a reason the Sold Out Shea stadium faster than the Beatles , in the early 70s they were the hottest live band in the land and still are .

Look Up Kick Ass in the dictionary and you'll find a pic of these guys .....

[7305Rory]

Just kicks pure ass.

[Longmiestr]

Back when the Drum Solo was cool! Somebody needs to have a drum solo channel from back in the day. Led Zepplin, Iron butterfly all had great drummers who played extended solos in concert.

[dannys199420]

@Longmiestr

ron bushy was awesome.

[paulaccurso]

play this monday morning as you brush your teeth!!!!!!

[frasierdf]

This band is so awesome, I wanna cover this song in my band but everyone else only likes playing death metal where they scream constantly and its all monotonous. I wish young people liked old rock and roll/classic metal like I do, this stuff is infinitely better than what kids listen to today, we have no taste and it sucks.

[eerieshor]

@frasierdf ...nice to hear (read) there are some young folks out there that appreciate GFR&R...keep up the good fight with your band mates...if you play it, they will come...

[mydrums4evr]

@frasierdf well you got to play with the right people i agree 101% with you!!

[starb10]

@frasierdf

this was some far -out times frasier - i remember the 70's and it was cool

[AodhaMaredud]

@frasierdf

i agree. last time we hear it often that our time sucks! no taste at all, iam born in the wrong decade :(

[whatthebollocks]

@frasierdf i totally agree dude, i tlove this as well, i have all their records on vynyl and CD. (i got the vynyl from my dad lol)

[fzappa007]

@frasierdf yea and ABBA is in the R&R Hall of Fame in these guys aren't ???WTF? RIGHT?

[burraburiash666]

@frasierdf I could be your bass player!!!!!!!! I love metal, but GFR are the KINGS!!!! Only a bass drum and a lot of ATTITUDE!!!!! Greetings from Mexico!!!

[enjoimovies]

@frasierdf sounds like you were born to late because YES! this is 1 of the Greatest BANDS of all time! BADASS!

[garjas1]

@enjoimovies i tottaly agreeeeeeeeeee

[ndennis1]

Donnie ALWAYS had the BEST drum sound...

[lucaskz13]

nossa nem deito em brower

[mse1576]

It's good to see the afro is largely in tact these days.

[DoubleDutchBust]

2:04pm Saturday (CDT) - Time in Mississippi, United States of America

[purplehouse26]

I have this on dvd for sale. if anyone wants a copy please message me : )

[DsveysNavy]

@purplehouse26

This fuckin rocks..what concrt and tour is ths from? Im interested:)

[47tooter]

@DsveysNavy I believe its their 1974 tour in L.A. , its just like their " caught in the act " live album,,,try it,, its really good.

[kyla2112]

@DsveysNavy this is from a video recorded and originally only released in Japan of the 75 All The Girls In The World Beware tour. A visual document of the Caught In The Act record. You can get it in the U.S. now from ads in the back of music magazines.

[j6711ab]

esto es una locura siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii­iiiiiiii

[IrishKickapoo]

wow, thx

[wcd47]

Still The greatest 3 piece group ever.

[TheMattcoa]

Don Brewer, Don Brewer! Thank you!

[chihawks2010]

I love this song, a great 3 man band.

[marmotaestelar]

take a look paranoia grand funk , banda tributo from Chile. So good

[47tooter]

they are not in the same league as GRAND FUNK.

[purplehouse26]

i have this on dvd. if anyone wants a copy, message me : )

[astronomius]

i know these guys were really wild and crazy @ 20 yo (even Mel) when they first wrote the song, according to one of their bios.

and, well, um, yeah, Capitol Records were kind of keeping an eye on the guys because they were always writing songs about anything and everything they were interested in and were really bold and upfront about it: sex, women, cars, religion (something like christianity), ecology, big government, politics. hardly anyone else was, and they just tore up the music scene

[louie817]

Paul Gilbert sent me here.

[1kroz1]

Pablo Gilberto :)

[victoriadaniel]

Uno de los mejeres baterista de todos los tiempos lo tuvo gran funck sin duda alguna

grand banda de rock clasico de todos los tiempos saludos desde

lima - peru

[purplehouse26]

i have GFR live in tokyo 1974 on dvd if anyone wants to buy it message me : )

[1904gman]

I would like that video. Toykyo

[Ruraljohn]

Don Brewer is the most underated drummer in rock & roll history.

[astronomius]

@Ruraljohn

yeah, and top ten songwriter, too !

[dannys199420]

@Ruraljohn

check out carmine appice of vanilla fudge on the album near the beginning.break song.one of the best.

[toolboxdam]

@Ruraljohn AND FARNER ONE OF THE MOST UNDERATED GUITARRISTS TOO

[HortHawg]

@Ruraljohn Amen to that!

[radargod1977]

@Ruraljohn I concur. I would have gotten a stick stuck in my 'fro ten seconds into this jam.

[sinning1966]

@Ruraljohn This drummer deserves a flag of its own ;-).

[johnnybgoode2605]

@Ruraljohn he and ringo starr

[nazzare79]

@Ruraljohn no, I think mel schacher is very underrated, not so much Don Brewer...

[astronomius]

really? i heard it might have stood for "This Night Under California"...

[47tooter]

wrong.

[jn51jn]

Actually when gfr presented this song to the record company to be produced, the record company could not publish the word "cunt" on the cover but did after the word was read backwards and printed. Best performance by The Don Brewer!!!

[GFRFan12]

5:00 is amazing. Around 7:00 is also amazing. Much better than Matt Cameron, Foges.

[Foges6694]

@GFRFan12 haha i see you placed this for me

[gcm2645]

I don't know why it's necessary to say Tokyo Japan, isn't Tokyo just enough?? Hahaha

[GrandFunker]

@gcm2645 if you're talking about this vid, it's LA, not Tokyo. I've had this show for almost 20 years! I know there's a Tokyo show from like 83 with Dennis Bellinger on bass...parts of it were on the boxed set.

[ginkax]

Three piece music like it's never been done before or ever since.

[1dublj]

I think you overlooked the Cream, arguably one of the best three piece bands ever with Jack Bruce, Ginger Baker and Eric Clapton.

[eddyb6666]

CUNT SPELLED BACKWARDS , THINK MAN

[recontrachismoso]

what does it mean T.N.U.C ???

[astronomius]

BREATHTAKING.

i think this is from the GFR concert @ Los Angeles Forum, June 6th, 1974. Geez, where the heck was i? oh, yeah, home from summer school, probably playing with my - - - . i wish i was at The Forum watching and listening to THIS!

[purplehouse26]

this is live in Tokyo Japan : )

[astronomius]

@purplehouse26

COOL !

[jtlirette]

Neil Perks is great but Don Brewer was our Drummer at that time

[En0ErUP]

puts guns and roses to shame.

[24Rocka]

This is THE powerhouse sound I grew up on. Listen to the version on the Grand Funk Live album turned up . The most powerful pumpin' song that this old punk rocker ever knew...hell ya. this version rocks but you gotta check out the live album version...smokin'

[wzrubicon]

these guys rocked. Hardly anyone knew them outside of the top 40 crap they were forced to play. I wore out many a Caught in the act tape back in the 70s. They were the American band!!

[lololiet]

I have found Keith moon's twin brother

Fucking hell.

[ryan79ryan]

no , pretty dam close!

[purplehouse26]

i have GFR in tokyo 1974 full show on dvd for sale if anybody is interested. send message for details : )

[NewfoundHunter]

How much?

[astronorm111]

Saw them at the Filmore NY in 1971 and when they introduced this song Mark says,"everybody is wondering what this song title is, well it's just plain CUNT backwards". True story. Actually lost my hearing for few days after that concert.

Totally awesome group.

[astronomius]

Farner's all over the stage, here... how does his power cord not get tangled up? lol. wow, the American equivalent of Keith Moon here, too, this guy is fantastic!

[mcgstudmuffin]

drum solo is fucking amazing

[jacksus5]

@ CusterFlux, If I'm not mistaken I believe that this was in 1974

[pinboyjorf]

HOLY SHIT!

[CusterFlux]

What year is this?

[GnomeAbduction]

I was directed here by Paul Gilbert's website, telling me to watch the video at 5:55

Lol

[hamerexploreremd]

same here.

[bcdon1]

Gotta love Paul Gilbert. Amazing guitarist and a very nice guy.

[grandfunkie]

?c.u.n.t.-

[daneslav]

you got it!

[GrandFunker]

@grandfunkie  duh

[gershwinriff]

Funky High Energy! Capitol shoulda released this whole concert on the latest compilation.

[sputnikx100]

mark has back problems,, thats why he uses these guitars,, there light and easy on his back.

[Napco205]

What type of guitar is mark playing? fish tail,...He always has played strange looking guitars. Now he uses a parker.

[alexisleroi]

veillette guitars I think, not sure

[jimmythecreep]

someone please post "black licorice/the railroad"...the funks finest hour.

[mrsplitterman]

tal vez no figuran como los creadores del rock duro pero eso no impide que ellos sean LOS CREADORES DEL ROCK PESADO DURO

[rainbow3922]

Se parece a deep purple,led zeppelin pero los grand funk son mucho mas poderosos yque raro que no figuren como los inventores del rock duro.

[balligood]

Mark Farner is about 5'6"....but Don Bewer is 10' tall on this one...

[skullerism]

DON BREWER es uno de los mejores bateristas y si kieren escuchar la misma cancion pero mejorada les recomiendo el concierto en Bosnia de 1997

[dasdrummer]

the first time i heard that solo it blew my mind been a drummer ever since

[poepneukerobotjes]

damn they have a lot of energy

[2468oldschooltimes]

does anyone know how tall mark is?

[FABIANFABIAN09]

El tiempo se ha acumulado sobre mi vida, se ha encajado en mi epidermis, pero esta musica hace que mi corazón vibre con el ansia de juventud...persiste...vive

[2468oldschooltimes]

i believe they all had new instruments after the law suit.... i love that messenger!

Terry Knight, should be gutted like a fish . slimmey fuck.
