    What I admired about Mark Farner was that he was one of the very few guitar players worldwide that never had to have his eyes on his fingers and guitar while playing. Mark the extraordinaire guitarist doing his this thing. Millions of guitar player's past, present and future have to ALWAYS keep their eyes on the guitar and their fingers while they play. Mark Farner Was Grand Funk Railroad With A Style All His Own.

    Wow! What a performance! I was only 15 years old when this concert was held. I missed a lot of good concerts because of my age. But I'm glad I found this song live. This has got to be the best live performance of Inside Looking Out. I wonder what the policemen in the background thought of this concert. Wish I were there during that period of time. Great performance guys. Grand Funk Railroad Rocks!
