Description

PLEASE READ BEFORE BIDDING: Please read the entire auction listing, including shipping costs, before writing to ask a question.   OUR GOAL IS CUSTOMER SATISFACTION. In order to meet that goal, we will ALWAYS work with our customers on any concerns that may arise. Because of that dedication, there should be no need to open a resolution dispute before working with us.  Please keep in mind, we would prefer to continue to provide you the opportunity to acquire the rare music we present each and every week.   Payment is required within seven days. We mail all paid items ONE WEEK after auctions end. Our listings are time consuming in detail and we are often traveling to find these gems, which at times delays the delivery schedule by a day or two. We ALWAYS process and ship every paid order. We have no control over parcels once they are mailed from our local Post Office. Overseas mail to some countries (Italy, Russia, France, in particular) has become very slow. Opening a dispute for slow mail is unacceptable.  We work hard to provide excellent service as is represented by our well over 18,000 positive feedback.   We use an ultrasonic KLAudio machine and thoroughly clean all records. Each order is carefully packaged by removing the LP from the jacket to avoid seam splits, use of 3 ml plastic cover sleeves over each LP and jacket, cardboard pad inserts, and placed in sturdy record mailers for safe delivery.   We take Customer Service seriously, and want you to be satisfied. Please give us 5 stars in each category through the feedback system, and we will be able to effectively continue to fulfill your passion for rare and collectible music! We have served thousands of satisfied customers - far more than our feedback records indicate - and our aim is to continue to do so.

>>> 1970 FIRST PRESSING DOUBLE ALBUM <<<

Grand Funk Railroad were one of the biggest American bands of the early 1970s. Caught in full flight on this live album, the band that brought Cream's power-trio concept to the U.S. stadium circuit can be easily identified as the link between Woodstock-era blues-rockers like Ten Years After and the heavier rock bands of the '70s. Singer/guitarist Mark Farner is the focal point, as his wailing vocals and fret-burning guitar licks take center stage throughout. Bassist Mel Schacher and drummer Don Brewer provide muscular support without venturing into showoff territory.

At this point, so many of the songs feature extended jams built around simple-but-effective blues-based riffs, sizzling guitar in heated tight rhythms, all very exciting ...and Grand Funk's bag of tricks wasn't entirely devoid of catchy choruses (the soulful "Heartbreaker") or the insane tense burning tratment of the Animals track "Inside Looking Out", surpassing the Animals version by miles.

The band's LIVE ALBUM is a definitive statement not only of what GRAND FUNK RAILROAD were about, but of the early-'70s hard-rock scene as a whole....in a word, "exciting."

  • "Introduction" - 2:30
  • "Are You Ready" - 3:34
  • "Paranoid" - 6:20
  • "In Need" - 9:50
  • "Heartbreaker" - 6:58
  • "Words of Wisdom" - 0:55
  • "Mean Mistreater" - 4:40
  • "Mark Says Alright" - 5:10
  • "T.N.U.C." - 11:45
  • "Inside Looking Out" 12:22
  • "Into the Sun" - 12:10


CONDITION: The Cover: rated: near M- nice!  The thick gatefold cover is stiff and strong; still a top copy = the cover is prone to a lot of cover wear having the dark colors and being 48 years old.  Very heavy package as a thick gatefold cover & 2 Lp's and a huge poster ... No split seams, no bends, no writing, no delete marks...good luck EVER finding a better original copy!!!

The Vinyl: BOTH records (all 4 sides) are all glossy clean, M- Looks AND Plays beautiful! The lime Capitol labels are both clean

the HUGE poster is MINT!
