Monumental Funk is a unofficial archival release (bootleg) recorded by Mark Farner and Don Brewer in the late 1960s. It was released in 1974 by Quadico under the name of the duo's then-successful band Grand Funk Railroad.

The album is credited to guitarist Farner and drummer Brewer, and conspicuously very careful not to actually say "Grand Funk" anywhere on it -- though the duo is pictured sitting under a sign reading "Grand Junction" inside the gatefold.[2] Farner calls the album a "bootleg" that was originally released by a company called Lucky Eleven, which handled music by their former band Terry Knight and the Pack.[1]
