Album Of The Week: Grand Funk Railroad's, Good Singin', Good Playin'

Good Singin' Good Playin' is the eleventh studio album by American rock band Grand Funk Railroad. The album was released on Aug. 2, 1976, by MCA Records and focuses within the genre of hard rock.

The band had actually broken up, but after Frank Zappa expressed interest in producing an album for them, they reassembled for one more attempt at success. Recorded in 1976 for MCA Records, this album included a guest performance by Zappa, playing lead guitar on the song Out to Get You.

Grand Funk decided on the first day of overdubs to split up again, although Zappa stayed until 4 a.m. trying to talk them out of it.

The album peaked at No. 52 on the Billboard Top 200. The album was the final release to feature both bassist Mel Schacher and keyboardist Craig Frost.
