This ORIGINALLY RELEASED IN 1973 release of Grand Funk’s "We’re An American Band" continued the band’s winning streak. It has gone on to become one of the most popular albums ever. Slightly more pop based than previous work, the band plays as if it can do no wrong on this strong set.

Loneliest Rider When released in 1973, the first 100,000 units were on virgin gold vinyl as is this long out of print re-issue. Grand Funk was the only group to release their albums on virgin vinyl. It was sign of things to come for the band and was truly the most successful year for the group, which they needed after dumping Terry Knight and embroiled in lawsuits and fears that maybe they wouldn't succeed but they did. Although more POP then previous albums, this was a Grand Funk album no doubt; introducing the songwriting abilities of Don Brewer (who had co-written other songs previously, but this album has songs written only by him). It was more upbeat then the previous "Phoenix" album and had a party theme to it, yet Mark Farner did contribute a soul-searching song on how American Indians are treated in " Loneliest Rider". It's the second album with keyboardist Craig Frost now a full fledge member of the band, posing nude with the rest of them on the inside gatefold of the cover. "The Railroad", "Stop Looking Back" along with the Mark Farner signature type song "Ain't got Nobody" with the hits "Walk Like a Man" and of course "American Band"E-BAY STORE.
