Made me think of so few grand funk silver discs; why are there so few humble pie or quicksilver messenger service silver discs? Bands that on a hot night put on a terrific show!
I have a gfr Show of theirs from Atlanta 1970 that is quite good; was hoping this would be equivalent; sadly disappointed.

I do not usually make such negative remarks about many shows; alas, this grand funk show is nothing more than noise; made me feel as if i put a match to $28; rather disgusting release!
This Grand Funk title has been released just because it is a early japanese gig. Japanese gigs sell well in Japan…
It’s bizarre that the only Grand Funk Railroad silver released in many years has to be so awful. I really wonder what the manufacturers are thinking? If you’re going to release something by a not-often-booted band, why not use a great sounding tape of a great show with some recognizable hits?
I know I sound provincial when I say this, but it doesn’t even have “Locomotion” on it. It’s not their only hit, but it is the only song of theirs I know.
Went back and TRIED to listen to the new Grand Funk; it must be the absolute worst recording i’ve ever had the misfortune to hear; far worse than the old stones piece-All Rights Reserved; just a heads up for those contemplating purchasing it!

Hey Pookie. Would you like to submit a full review? Just write one and send it in.
This Clapton show titled we’re all the way has one of the most intense stormy monday versions i’ve ever heard; i have heard many ec versions of this; all ec collectors will love this show!!

On further listening; the Clapton-We’re All the Way show on Tricone is a top of the line audience recording; the performance tight with a blistering version of Badge and Bottle of Red Wine; a must have for the Clapton collector!

The quality of the Grand Funk is awful-noise;a very poor recording; on thew other hand the Clapton-We’re All the way is an excelent audience !!
Does anyone know if this Grand Funk Railroad is considered a common source? Not too many labels are willing to press their shows and I’m very curious about quality and performance if anyone picks this one up?
