I like Don's playing and respect that he had a unique style. But this is basically a repeat of his solo from the first album 50 years ago. Not quite as good though. And long drum solos are simply out of vogue. But Don has to make it out like people go to see Grand Funk to see HIM. Nope. He was a part of a great musical legacy and this is not only a faint shadow of what once was, it's a reminder that he sold out a friend for a little more money and that makes him a piece a crap. What a shame.
