 A Must for a Classic Rock Collection
This CD contains almost all their great songs throughout the group's career. My son is a budding drummer who likes all the classic rock groups as well as R&B and Jazz. He is constantly listening to this CD on his Ipod. Well worth the purchase.

 Grand Funk's Greatest Collection
This collection will make a Grand Funk Fan out of anyone. This is the greatest compilation of GFR that is available. Of the course there are the traditional GFR hits like "Footstompin Music" "Loco-Motion" "Bad Time to Be in Love", etc. that really bring back the often forgotten 70's rock-n-roll jam, but there are also some rare cuts that don't receive the radio play that they well should have that deserve a listening to that are on this collection. My personal favoite is the cover of Traffic's (Dave Mason's)" Feelin Alright" Really great cover that is well worth a listen.

 THIS IS A BOX SET !
This is how all box sets should be put together. First the booklet with notes puts everything into perspective.Great history of the band,song info,album info, and great pics.The songs:the hits are all here along with some outstanding album tracks.Next we have some killer previously un-released material. The power trio days has mostly live tracks that are being released for the first time and everything from phoenix on has some smokin' previously un-released tracks. What makes this set smoke is the fact that we get 3 tracks from THE PACK before GRAND FUNK and 3 brand new songs recorded for this anthology.In my opinion the perfect package.

 Nothing like a Funk History Lesson
Don't understand anyone who doesn't get off on GFR. The Red Album's "Paranoid" let us know that Don, Mark and Mel were to be seriously reckoned with and 30 years later ... still to be reckoned with. Their early years were America's answer to the Brit Power Trios that proved the Brits didn't have a monopoly on heavy, on hard, on thumping bass lines, on guitar frenzy. Then later years with the addition of keyboards Funk added some commerciality to the grunt. One of my top 10 albums of all time ... it doesn't get much better than this!
