 Grand Funk at full volume:
So my wife goes shopping and while she’s out I put on this new E Pluribus Funk edition on full volume. There are four new live tracks, recorded in Dayton Ohio and Detroit, Michigan, back in 1971. These were good times and music was important then. However, will my equipment stand the Grand Funk test? This is my brother’s Aiwa Super T Bass CD stack and the speakers are supposed to handle 70 watts. I’m listening to them now and the live tracks, including ‘I’m Your Captain / Closer to Home are up there with the greatest – well worth the money alone. But they need volume to get the best of the balance between drum, lead and bass. These aren’t just three guys hammering instruments – each song is orchestrated and balanced. So what happens? Imagine my sadness when both of the speakers started fluffing and losing tone. Once again my equipment has failed the Grand Funk sound test -- and I paid £60 for this CD player second-hand! Why can’t the equipment match the music? Music like this is no longer around. Here in the UK there are very few in the know so that makes this music personal. This particular CD demonstrates just what a three-piece band can actually achieve working in harmony, with the bass and drum acting as a rhythm section. Few bands have been able to do this -- The Jimi Hendrix Experience was another. Peter Hobday, Cornwall

 PEOPLE, LET'S STOP THE WAR!
A FANTASTIC album! Mark Farner's swan song as a great writer, but what a way to go! Track-after-track of great material, including one of his all-time best, "People, Let's Stop the War!" (Where are the Mark Farner's of the world when we need them now?) If you like footstompin' music, played with white-hot fire, with great melodies, harmonies, and musicianship, by all means get E Pluribus Funk RIGHT NOW!

 New edition for a classic Funk Album
E Pluribus Funk: a classic album in a new edition. I can´t say nothing new for E Pluribus funk, an album with classics like Footstompin´ Music, the beautiful Loneliness, the excellent People Let´s stop the war .. and four bonus tracks: live recording from April, 1971: I´m Your Captain/Closer to Home, Hooked on Love, Get it Together and Mark say´s alright. Grand Funk was one of the best bands from the seventies and E Pluribus Funk was and is a big, great album ... if you have the old version; you need this ... if you don´t have this album .. don´t wait more, buy it now
