God...that man is a legend. One of the best American rock bands ever for sure. Listen to the albums "Closer to Home", and "On Time", and "Grand Funk"...anyone that disagrees with me is just plain stupid.

when I first listened to Grand Funk back in 1971, I was 12 years old and now I'm 64 but Mark Farner looks younger and in better shape than I am.

Mark seems like a very friendly guy love his music

what a great Mom he had, to be so supportive

It's nice to hear about marks journey to grandfunkrailroad

Good raconteur. One can listen to him for hours on end.

What a great guy! He IS Grand Funk!!

Awesome chuckle, love his vibe. Praying with Bill Graham is good story.

It breaks my heart that these guys can't get along after all these years....what a complete shame.....

We should all be so glad Mark hurt his knee playing football!!

Lucky for us we have KZfaq we can see Mike Farner like we've never dreamt we could and this is just an interview I no longer have to remember my uncle's stories about the concerts I can see it.... but no my uncle stories are far out too.

WoW Mark, good to see you still hanging in there, you were and still are the best to me, I learned how to sing as close to you as i could, and people would say to me, wow you sound just like mark, I practiced for a long, long time, you will always be # 1 in my Heart, so called friends can really screw you huh, if you ever come to my town you can bet you will get MY MONEY, May god Bless you and your family.

Thank you, Mark for all the great music.

Charisma is the number one attribute of a rock legend and this dude is the definition. Thank You Mark.

It's strange to hear Mark talk about who got him started and his guitar heroes. He got me started way back when. 1000's of garage bands started around that time. He is one of the only two guitarists on my wall right now. Right next to EVH. You are and will always be MY hero Mark!

Steve Cropper !!! what a reference !! great pleasure to hear this !! i can't stop listening to you mr Farner , the child in you remains .

Mark was/is the best. Great vocals, stage presence and the author of all of the songs. If one fellow is instant recognizable as the leader of GFR it is Mark. GFR via Mark was with me throughout high school. Mark - just market yourself at Mark Farmer formerly of GFR. That is legal most likely. Although I would love to read your documents. I am a lawyer.

Mark is charismatic!

Good for you Mark Take Care

You can learn a lot by just watching other musicians and applying it to the way you want to play.

he has a badass mullet

only 70,000 views! wow. I've watched this about 5 times myself.

GFR was American rock&roll. I mean like the Zeppelin of the USA. Flint, MI REPRESENT!!!

Born to Die is their best LP...amazing stuff. Early GFR to their financial loss and then to create the pop hits...then they wrote Bron to Die before the last commercial attempt. Brewer's drumming was excellent on this LP...

I always wondered if Mark knew Dick Wagner, I guess so....... This was really interesting to learn.

"Dick Wagner & the Frost!! I remember then!!!

Legend.

🎵Great guitarist 👍shredding not necessary, just play the dang thing!!🎸🎵

LOL @ 0:29 It's easy to like a guy who can laugh at himself like that.

Great guy....

I religiously trim my left hand's nail too, but I think that's all right handed stringed instrument musician too. Anyway, dude's awesome!

Always dug Grand Funk.

Not a shredder? Mark obviously has forgotten that it was he would played guitar on "I Come Tumblin'" on E Pluribus Funk.

Heartbreaker was his first song???!!! Jeez.

one of the best guitarists ever...shredding is boring....

Sad, if I would have known what a real jerk don brewer was, I would have never gone and seen GFR this past weekend. Never again - I will not support that kind of greed and hate.

too funny

He was probably a hard hitting linebacker.

Is he comparing himself to Steve Cropper and Jimi Hendrix?!

Okay - what can someone/anyone tell me about what happened with Don & Mark & Mel? In under 100 words or less preferably. :-) I could look it up somewhere but I'm sure some Real FANS of GFR can give me actual FACTS, vice Rumors & Innuendo, you know? Thx.

I remember learning that Terry Knight sure screwed GFR out of a lot of money. I hope Mark got some of that money back from that swine...

That guitar he played in Grand Funk sounded like a wooden cargo pallet.

The human race is not that bad, you could learn to love them? 🤔👽👽👽👽👽🎥🚐
