It's their seventh album and it's produced by Todd Rundgren. Grand Funk wanted a more polished, radio-friendly sound and who better than The Runt to help them find it. Todd's production tightened up the rhythm section and added some keyboards which helped turned Grand Frunk from a "people's band" into legitimate rock royalty.

Closer to Home
#grandfunkrailroad #closertohome #seventiesrock #rock #rockmusic #music #musicsky #musiciansky #markfarner #howardstern #classicrock Grand Fund Railroad release their breakthrough album on June 15, 1970. The "radio edited" title track was all over the radio that summer and put GFR on track to become a powerhouse American rocker. Mark Farner's vocals and guitar, Mel Schacker's huge baseline and Don Brewer's drums and that title track were perfect timing for a country in the middle of the Vietnam War -- a lost captain desperate to find his way home -- resonated with vets returning home and soldiers still serving.

A song often pops into my head during #MorningMeditation. Today it was "Closer to Home" by Grand Funk. It seemed like it was a message that we're getting closer to to a level of sanity thru the world's chaos. I dug deeper & found this. Straight from #MarkFarner himself.
