Grand Funk is the second studio album by Grand Funk Railroad, released at the tail-end of 1969 by Capitol Records.

From Wikipedia:

Recorded at Cleveland Recording Company, the album was produced by Terry Knight and engineered by Ken Hamann. The album was certified gold by the RIAA, the first for the group. It includes a cover of the Animals’ 1966 song “Inside Looking Out”, which is still a staple of the band's live concerts.

The title on the front cover is set in Tension, a crop-and-repeat condensed geometric face offered by Photo-Lettering.

The credits on the back cover are set in Helvetica (regular). The group members' names on the inner gatefold are also set in Helvetica, with the credits underneath set in a revival of italic Garamond – possibly Linotype’s Garamond No. 3.
