For our first Independence Day offering we have The American Band Grand Funk Railroad. This recording comes from the 1980's reunion. For this reunion original bassist Mel Schacher decided to opt out due to his developing a fear of flying. Dennis Bellinger was recruited to take his place. This line-up recorded 2 albums, Grand Funk Lives and What Funk? The song "Queen Bee" from Grand Funk Lives was also included on the soundtrack to the animated movie Heavy Metal.
