Grand Funk Railroad Live Performance of Loco-Motion at Coconut Creek Casino

Date: March 12, 2012

In March 2012, Grand Funk Railroad delighted fans with a live performance of their iconic hit 'The Loco-Motion' at the Coconut Creek Casino in Florida. This concert came years after their classic era, which spanned the late 1960s and 1970s, marked by albums like 'We're an American Band' and 'Closer to Home.' By the time of this live recording, the band had experienced numerous lineup changes and regroupings, but their signature blend of rock and roll remained intact. A fun tidbit: 'The Loco-Motion' originally written by Carole King and Gerry Goffin, was turned into a rock anthem by Grand Funk in 1974, showcasing their knack for transforming popular songs into crowd-pleasers. This performance is a testament to their enduring legacy and ability to connect with audiences, even decades after their heyday.
