I wish they would release the Shea Stadium show.

anybody who can surface (new) GFR vids is great...Historic Value should be the concept, not the commercial (ie, TN) aspect of it....

So Terry, be a MAN, vote, POSITIVE, and do accept certain vids/perormances to get tot the online world...for HISTORIC reasons, not commercial reasons...

Terry Knight kind of rules in this.

I've been a Grand Funk fan ever since I heard their first Live Album, at my cousins house in 1971! Thanks for bringing back the memories, and hopefully their taped performance at Shea, will soon see daylight!

I was at this concert, it was awesome. 55,000 at Shea. Humble Pie was the first act. Wow the good old days. I was in High School in NY. Saw a concert every weekend!!

Way Cool! This really hits home! Thanks for sharing this wonderful piece of history. I just bought the Live Album (again) on MP3.

I'd give anything to see more footage of that show.

this is history, my friends...Terry Knight was great at making them successfu...Shea Stadium was the highest point of their career, GFR was the top hard rock group in U.S.

Great quality or crap quality, I'm STILL SEEING IT! YEAH!

That Funk airplane was the same plane they used in American Graffiti.

Awesome historical footage - what I would have given to have been there. Kind of like Woodstock :-)  Thanks for posting John!

[PackedFunk]

JohninFunk,

I don't know what the expression would be there in the country of Greece, but, here in America we say; YOUR THE MAN!

Unbelievable video footage! And your serving it up to a very hungry Rock audience...we are eating it up!!!

Bless your heart for sharing...I'm sending this everywhere I can!

Much LOVE to you Sir!

[JohninFunk]

Well, I'm not all alone in this world of video research... My close friend FUNKMAN from Copenhagen, Denmark helps me out and of course, I do the same. He's a veteran GFR / Farner fan and the second 'Grand' video collector I know. Quess, who's the first... ??? o:) o:) o:)

[ForReelFunk]

All these video's will re-connect vintage Funk fans with their favorite band...plus,it generate new fans for Mark and the original players of GFR!

Salute to you and FunkMan! Thank you for not being driven by greed and selling this footage instead of sharing!
