That’s where Grand Funk Railroad focused its efforts, and it worked.
In hamlets many big acts didn’t bother to go to. There were still kids going to their first concert. FM rock was still new in the hinterlands. That’s the world we lived in, one of concentration, where it was hard to get into the game and if you got on the radio people knew your name.īut radio was still regional. Then again, there’s not a single act today as big as Grand Funk was yesterday. Now today you just go online and find out the band sucks. Knight spoke of Grand Funk Railroad’s triumphs in every burg but your own, you had to see them. It started with their debut album “On Time.” Reviled by critics, Knight put money into something most other managers didn’t bother with, radio advertising. Controlled by Terry Knight, an almost made it rock star himself, the band made it on hype more than ability/songs/records, but for a moment there, around 1970, they were a big deal. Grand Funk Railroad was an American band on the decline. She had the whole show and that’s a natural fact” Last night in Little Rock put me in a haze
