Grand Funk Railroad or...The Great Train Robbery
“Well, I’ll tell you,” says Mark Farner, pausing after the question and looking intensely into my eyes, “Detroit is a spoiled city.”
EDITOR’S NOTE - ’Member 01’ Terry Knight? Original Detroit popster dj. With delightful Brian Jones long hair (except black) and spiffy mod clothes. Oh yeah, he knew where it was at all right. The sixth Rolling Stone, right here in the Motor City. A t one point he quit his job at CKL W (?) and was off to England to go tour with the Stones. The story was that he was going to be a supporting act, singing, until he could be phased into the band itself. He was, you see, going to replace Bill Wyman. And so much prettier. Anyway, that fizzled and he came back to take on a job as program director with a radio station up in Flint. And kind of drifted out of our consciousnesses. Well, ol’ staggerin’ Terry’s been back in town of late, and this is the story of his new thing.
