Free Music Review: Yet Another (pretty good) Grand Funk Compilation
Hit: 4 Stars
If you want a single-disc compilation of Grand Funk Railroad, you basically have four discs to choose from: 1991's Capitol Collector's Series, 2001's Very Best Album Ever, 2002's Classic Masters, and 2006's Greatest Hits (the one you're looking at now). All four of them are actually pretty good, not to mention very similar. Here's some of the goods and bads of Grand Funk's "Greatest Hits."
THE GOOD
- I've always considered Grand Funk Railroad to be the only "heavy" American rock group who could hold a match to Led Zeppelin in the early seventies, and this collection gives you fourteen choice cuts from the band.
- In addition to the big hits like "We're An American Band," "The Loco-Motion," and "I'm Your Captain;" you also get some underrated gems such as "Time Machine," "Footstompin' Music," and their only UK hit, "Inside Looking Out."
- All songs are digitally remastered from the original master tapes, resulting in excellent sound quality.
THE BAD
- Despite the number of great tracks, there are a few songs I would have traded for. I was particulary disappointed at the absence of two great cover songs, Dave Mason's "Feelin' Alright" and the Stones' "Gimme Shelter" (the Classic Masters compilation does contain these, but it lacks "Inside Looking Out").
Overall, I would cautiously call this the best Grand Funk collection available. If you're a fan of classic American rock, make sure you own something from this great band, even if it's one of their regular albums or one of their two fantastic live recordings.
