The Original hard-rock heavy-metal boogie from Flint Michigan. Pre-Disco. Pre-Rap. Pre-Techno. Pre-Lip-synch. Pre-Emo. Pre-Auto-Tune. Pre-Justin Bieber. The Real Deal. One of the reasons why those of the House of War hate us of the House of Peace so very, very much (and, no, that ain't no erroneous juxtapositional malapropism; uncle mikey just knows that the other guys have got it all wrong). Banned (please pardon the pun) in Pakistan. Homer Simpson's favorite band; except for Blue Oyster Cult, Christopher Walken's too. While throughout most of its history the band has gone by the name Grand Funk Railroad, for "legal" reasons during a few years in the early '70s when this song was initially released they were simply Grand Funk. Live from the summer of 1973. This is what popular music should sound like: More cowbell.
