Grand Funk Railroad – Inside Looking Out 1969

Grand Funk Railroad performing “Inside Looking Out” live from 1969. This clip was shot at “The Show” WITF-TV in Hershey, Pa. November 1969. Mark & Don were 20 & Mel 18 years old. This clip is timeless. I’ve had hundreds of personal messages from people of 4 generations worldwide that are in awe of this powerful performance. (Folks from 11 to 83 years of age.) I’ve been told it’s early “METAL”, to the original “GRUNGE”, to the real begining of “PUNK”, to the first “GARAGE BAND”, to pure “TRIBAL ROCK”, to “INDUSTIAL STRENGTH ROCK.” One thing’s for sure, it is powerful, passionate, singular, & unique. Mark, Don, & Mel changed music forever with 10 minute Power Songs like this one. This is the ULTIMATE POWER TRIO. Grand Funk Railroad was truly a “Performance Vehicle”. What you heard on the albums could be duplicated 100% on their live performances. Many would say it’s impossible for a 3 piece band to do this live. See the impossible. Once you start watching it, it’s hard not to finish it. This is the most popular GFRxR video on the Web.
