This first Grand Funk live double album was panned by the critics, but was very successful commercially. It is said that people either loved it or hated it.

Grand Funk Live Album (1970/2002 CD). The original 2 LP set is complete on this single CD and despite its being remastered, the cuts are not fiddled with (we get the performances, warts, glory, and all). For the Grand Funk fan, this is an essential live album. For others, there is a lot to like about these energetic performances. While I do not think this is the greatest think since sliced bread, I still want these recordings in my collection.

Love it or hate it, the album is a solid collection of performances from Grand Funk Railroad’s original three-piece lineup dating to shows in Florida in late June of 1970. It, like Grand Funk’s studio albums up to that point, was produced by the band’s manager Terry Knight.
