It would be 5 years before a very different Grand Funk lived. Mark immediately put a solo LP out in '77, and Don, Mel & Craig (kind of to Mark's surprise) formed a new band called Flint that was really sophisticated, enjoyable rock on their one released LP. The band apparently had a three album deal when they moved to MCA Records, but only recorded the strange Good Singin' Good Playin' (that really seems to only be famous because Frank Zappa was the producer) album before disbanding. This was also the end of the Capitol years (save for Bosnia). Many of these tracks are edited for radio play, which again makes it very unique.

I think the majority of the self-produced Phoenix was pretty awful, but it was a transition period LP. Grand Funk Railroad includes original founding members Don Brewer (vocals and drums, writer and singer of the multi-million selling hit, Were an American.
I will never understand why lead guitarist and singer Mark Farner was opposed to bringing in a fourth member in keyboardsmen Craig Frost*. To me this is the best version of the band.
Anyway, this of course could be titled Mark, Don, Mel & Craig 1972-76 (wasn't Born to Die released in '75? 1976, I think). Kinda weird that the record company removed the bandmembers' faces off the original artwork. Release Date: The best album credited to Grand Funk Railroad is Closer To Home which is ranked number 4,479 in the overall greatest album chart with a total rank score of 305.
