CD Reviews
Closer To Home
Review by Gary Hill
This is definitely not Grand Funk Railroad's strongest release. That said, I can think of at least two reasons to have this disc.

Grand Funk
Review by Gary Hill
Another in the series of Grand Funk reissues, this one shows the band not straying too far from their home turf musically. Still, when your home turf is such a great blend of bluesy rock laced with fuzz bass and tasty guitar riffing, why not stay close to home?

Live Album
Review by Gary Hill
Once upon a time if you wanted to buy a Grand Funk live disc, this was the one to get, because it was the only one. Now, however, there are others to choose from.

Live The 1971 Tour
Review by Gary Hill
Grand Funk Railroad was a band on which I, and many others cut my teeth. They were called the worst band of all time by Rolling Stone Magazine, but that didn't bother us.

On Time
Review by Gary Hill
With On Time Grand Funk released a mixed bag of music. With the reissue, Capitol has added a couple of bonuses to sweeten the pot.

Grand Funk Railroad - Live in Beloit, WI, 2002
Review by Gary Hill
Rolling Stone Magazine may have branded Grand Funk Railroad as the worst band of all time, but you sure couldn't tell it by the reaction of this crowd. Guess that just goes to show just how much that magazine does not know.

Mark Farner - For The People
Review by Gary Hill
Right off the bat, you might notice that the vocals on this disc sound very familiar. That’s because Mark Farner was the main voice of Grand Funk Railroad (along with the guitarist).

Union - Live in Chicago- April, 2000
Review by Gary Hill
Union delivered a scorching set to the enthusiastic crowd at Chicago's House Of Blues. The band came out and showed that they were a band that really can deliver live what they promise in the studio.

Frank Zappa - Studio Tan (vinyl)
Review by Gary Hill
This Frank Zappa disc has some trademark sounds. I think the side long "Greggary Peccary" has quite a bit in common with the "...Yellow Snow..." suite from Apostrophe.

Union - The Blue Room
Review by Brian Angotti
The Blue Room, the follow up album from Union, is an exceptional piece of work. This album shows the growth and maturity in the band, both musically and lyrically.

Various Artists - Thriller - A Metal Tribute to Michael Jackson
Review by G. W. Hill

I know the title says this is a “metal” tribute, but I question whether the person who gave it that title knows what “heavy metal” is.
