Prodali su više od 25 milijuna ploča, bili stalno na turneji, punili arene širom svijeta, i primili 4 RIAA zlatna albuma 1970.-te - najviše od svih američkih grupa te godine. Trenutačna postava koristi nadimak "The American Band", kao referencu na njihov hit iz 1973. - "We're an American Band".
Zanimljiva stvar kod te grupe je bila da unatoč tome što ih je kritika mrzila, publika ih je obožavala. Ime benda je igra riječi s "Grand Trunk Railroad" - željeznička linija koja je prolazila kroz njihov grad - Flint, u saveznoj državi Michigan.
"People, Let's Stop The War"
Hey all you people, for goodness sake,
Let's get together, what does it take,
To make you understand the value of a man?
I'm talkin' about your son and neighbor, yes I am. oh ...
People let's stop the war.
People let's stop the war.
People let's stop the war.
People let's stop the war.
If we had a president, that did just what he said,
The country would be just alright, and no one would be dead,
From fighting in a war, that causes big men to get rich.
There's money in them war machines, now ain't this a bitch? oh ...
I been excited, ain't nobody ready.
They don't know what to get ready for.
Let's get ready and stop the war.
Ooo ... excited, ain't nobody ready.
They don't know what to get ready for.
Let's get ready and stop the war.
I been excited, ain't nobody ready.
They don't know what to get ready for.
Let's get ready and stop the war.
Ooo ... excited, ain't nobody ready.
They don't know what to get ready for.
Let's get ready and stop the war.
