Grand Funk Railroad: Track On! The Best of Mark Farner, Terry Knight & Donnie Brewer
Greg Shaw, Rolling Stone, 22 June 1972
WOW, TALK ABOUT obscure rock history! Do you care that Mark Farner was once in a group called the Bossmen? Do you think the average Grand Funk fan cares enough about the group's origins to buy this album of old Terry Knight & the Pack recordings? Do you think anybody but the most ardent punk-rock archivist could stand to listen to this stuff?
