Grand Funk Railroad is an American rock band that was very popular throughout the 1970s. Formed in 1969 by Mark Farner (vocals, guitar), Don Brewer (drums) and Mel Schacher (bass). Craig Frost (keyboards) was later recruited around 1972. Grand Funk Railroad has sold in excess of 25 million records to this date, 10 million of which were in 1970 alone. They were a top concert draw and often cited as “the loudest rock and roll band in the world.” Early in their career they headlined a much hyped free concert in Hyde Park - whilst virtually unknown in the UK. They also opened for Led Zeppelin in Michigan, their home state. |

or trademark repeated over and over until it was closely associated with a performer. People love it, come to expect it, and talk about it the next morning after the show. All great comedians have at least one, but what was remarkable about Laugh-In was that it developed a whole repertore of sight gags and catchphrases using little-known talent exclusively (though some of them became quite famous later). Among the favorites: Arte Johnson as the German Soldier, peering out from behind a potted palm murmering, "Verrry interesting!"; Ruth Buzzi as Gladys, the little old lady with the hand bag, forever whacking the equally decrepit Tyrone who snuggled up beside her on a park bench; Lily Tomlin as the sarcastic, nasal telephone operator named Ernestine; Gary Owens as the outrageously overmodulated announcer, facing the microphone, hand cupped over ear; Alan Sues as the grinning moron of a sports announcer; Goldie Hawn, as the giggling dumb blonde; Lily Tomlin as Edith Anne, a child philosopher whose catchphrase was "and that's the truth," and so on. |
