Grand Funk (commonly known as The Red Album) is the second studio album by American rock band Grand Funk Railroad. It was produced by Terry Knight and engineered by Ken Hamann. The album was certified gold by the RIAA, the first for the group. It includes a cover of The Animals' "Inside Looking Out" which is still a cornerstone of the band's live concerts today.

Grand Funk (née Grand Funk Railroad) weren’t the best of the early-’70s hard-rock titans, but they were probably the most shameless. The Michigan band were already tremendously popular arena-wreckers by the time they hit with We’re An American Band, a song that’s all about how awesome it is to be tremendously popular arena-wreckers. Farner and Grand Funk were finishing up their album Shinin’ On with We’re An American Band producer Todd Rundgren, and Farner walked into the studio singing the song. The band messed around with the song for a bit, and Rundgren convinced them that they had a single on their hands. Rundgren knew what he was talking about. The Loco-Motion would be Grand Funk’s last single. They kept cranking out albums over the next few years, and they landed a couple other big hits. But then they got sick of being an American band and broke up in 1976.
