Grand Funk Railroad: Funk On A Grand Scale
Chris Charlesworth, Melody Maker, 4 May 1974
RINGING EARS are a symptom of excessive listening to loud rock and roll. When the ears tingle after a gig, you know the band in question has pushed out plenty of juice. When they're still ringing the following day, then that band must have employed a brave sound engineer to control the volume setting.
