CLOSER TO HOME
GRAND FUNK RAILROAD
USA lime green Capitol Records - SKAO 471
1970 Original first pressing on the scarce lime green Capitol label and in thick gatefold cover.
The great GRAND FUNK in the peak of their success...
Grand Funk's third studio album, 1970's CLOSER TO HOME, was the album that catapulted the band into the big time and placed it at the top of the hard rock heap. One of GFR's most consistent albums, the most recognizable song remains the title track, which deals with the nightmare of getting drafted into the then still raging Vietnam war. Add to it such other solid rocking ditties as "Sin's a Good Man's Brother," "Nothing is the Same," and "Hooked on Love," and you have arguably Grand Funk's finest album. Throwing a beautiful hook and strong arrangement into the hard rock mix on the epic "I'm Your Captain," it also contained the show-stopper "Mean Mistreater."
