  • my afghan song :)

  • I was at Cobo Hall in Detroit Michigan with a friend on April 29th 1971. Frisbees were flying, bics were lit up everywhere, and the band was throwing free joints to the crowd! Security didn't mind all the drugs floating around...they just wanted to make sure all of that was contained within the concert area.

    "Sin's a Good Man's Brother" was awesome! So was “I’m Your Captain” (Closer to Home). I will never forget that magical night!

  • Folks this is what real rock sounds like,I remember watching these guys on the midnight special back in the day.

  • a good video- much thanks-

  • A little Sabath, Zep and Hendrix feel in this song, it just plane Rocks!

  • @RCTankWars that is EXACTLY what I was thinking!!!!

  • I wore this album out...loved the real eyes on the cover! I remember pretending to be Mark Farner playing all those cool riffs from his Messenger when I was a liitle boy. Oh yeah, and I also doubled as Mel playing all those amazing lines. Every kid has his hero's...they were mine!

  • One of the greatest rock and roll songs of ALL time! Release Closer To Home on DVD audio & SACD Now! Wake Up Capital...

  • My dad was so draconian when I was a kid , he said " Son you only get to choose one rock band we will buy you albums of".. I choose GRF.. it was the only way I could give my dad the finger at 12 years old.

  • Mel was the Master of the bass slide in his time.. and still few can hold a candle to his passion and creative innovation.

  • this song seriously kicks ass from its subtle intro to its hard driving bass riff beginning at 0:28.. Oh yeah

  • When i heard this song i thought it was Led Zeppelin :P

  • that riff just kicks your fuckin teeth in, doesn't it?

  • classic funk. too cool.

  • BAD ASS!

  • i have hunch early 90s grunge highjacked this material and tweeked the vocal harmonies, to brand!

  • saw him play this last nite, AMAZING

  • in Venezuela, this song, its opening guitar & the primeval scream of the singer, revealed to us a new, deeper, level or rock & roll, a magnificent but scary USA

  • This song makes me wanna bop my head so bad! You know, the bluesy swagger head bop/nod

  • I'm sure they were called Grand Funk, They had a album called "Grand Funk Railroad"

  • @MrKemo54

    they were grand funk railroad and the grand trunk railroad here in michigan was being wuss's about the band using the name like that, sooooo they took the "railroad" part off...what a joke they had to do that

  • @MrKemo54

    they were first called grand funk railroad but after their manager terry knight left they werent allowed to use their full name anymore so they just took the railroad part out.

  • only caveat to this is, i wish they'd have miked/tuned don's drums (toms) right. otherwise excellent

  • Earliest Heavy Metal right here , Paranoid { by Grand Funk } might be first !

  • I loved it when they played this song for the closing credits for "Law Abiding Citizen".

  • Jeff Surges and Universe did a big band version of this!

  • Cmputer >. just aint Buffering right >. Pisses me off to See a / Hear a " GOOD S ONG go to waste >>

  • What a kiff Fucking Song !!! GFR oh yeh !

  • Good song so why don't you fix so it plays right you moron or are you just going to leave it up messed up you lazy sob.

  • I heard this song on "Law Abiding Citizen" last night and recognized Marks voice. Great song!

  • en mi opinión los cuatro primeros albums en estudio de GFR son auténticas maravillas

  • wow!!! great song

  • @cherben This is on the soundtrack for "Law Abiding Citizen"

  • @Brian77TX great song...great band, the movie industry has to use great old songs from the past because 90% of todays stuff is total crap both whats written and who's writting it and Playing it!
