    Mark Farner sounds as good as he did in 1971. GREAT, strong voice. The song sounded like the 1971 recording. Wow, most older bands do not sound like they did in the beginning but Grand Funk does. The bass sounded sweet too. GREAT job Mark!!! Thank you.

    Wow, is that Bruce Kullick?? So Mark basically played the song with the guitarist who 'replaced' him in current Grand Funk Railroad band lol 😂 And Bruce even played the acoustic guitar riff with Mark gave a shout.
    Just a prove how cool Mark Farner is, I believe he had no issue let alone objection about that. Thinking about Blackmore's Night invited to this studio playing a Purple song with Steve Morse as the 2nd guitarist.
