MARK FARNER Lost Millions When He Gave Up Writing Credit For This GRAND FUNK RAILROAD Classic; PROFESSOR OF ROCK Investigates (Video)

Professor Of Rock has released the new video below, along with the following message:

"Legendary 70s singer guitarist Mark Farner, formerly of Grand Funk Railroad or just Grand Funk as they came to be known, tells the wild story of the 70s classic rock staple, 'We’re An American Band', a song that every fledgling bar band has covered on their way up. A staple of the classic rock cannon. First of all, he recorded it with a broken nose… and he co-wrote the song with the drummer but he says out of the goodness of his heart, he allowed the drummer to have the sole writing credit which has ended up costing him millions. We get the real story behind an urban legend that’s been floated for years. In 1971 Grand Funk sold out Shea stadium faster than The Beatles and has been snubbed by the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame for decades. The interview is next on Professor Of Rock."
