Grass Roots - Heaven Knows [Excellent quality]

[fab42355]

I was disappointed at this years Grammy Awards on the segment of the music artist we lost last year that Rob Grill (Nov. 30, 1943- July 11, 2011) who for nearly 45 years was the lead singer of the Grass Roots, who sang on such hits as “Midnight Confessions,” “Temptation Eyes” and “Live For Today,” was left off of the tribute. The Grass Roots spent a record breaking 307 consecutive weeks on the Billboard charts.

Forgotten at the 2012 Grammys remembrance segment. Shame on you on you money grubbing trendy fools. I remember you Rob. You'll make a good duet with Whitney in R&R Heaven.

Those flowers make that stage look bad assssss

[Beatlejoose56]

It's sad to see so many music makers from our generation go....damn sad.

[ran6658]

The first song that I saw them sing on American Bandstand. I've been a fan for 43t years. Thanks so much for posting this video & keeping the music alive. Happy Birthday, Rob. R.I.P. & never forgotten, Rhonda

[bearron]

How cool are those threads?

[aimeemannfan2010]

@jjmmjj44, thanks for the info. I didn't know they were in Milwaukee? What a loss. Rob will be missed.

[kwanda53]

I only now found out that Rob Grill passed away this summer. I am so sorry.......thank you for all the wonderful memories!!!!!!!!!!! :9

[DiscoKat]

Anybody know which show this performance comes from? Is this American Bandstand, Happening '69, Ed Sullivan maybe?

[SixtiesPopGold]

@DiscoKat It's from the short lived (September 1969 - January 1970) show "Music Scene".

[LasVegasJim]

@SixtiesPopGold Thanks for this post. The video is fantastic quality!! Wow...what great music! Thanks.

[aimeemannfan2010]

@VioletJm, thank you for info. What a terrible loss. I meet him back in the 80's when I worked security at ChicagoFest. I

was surprised that he took the time to talk with me. I was just some goofy kid from Milwaukee in awe of this very kind and wonderful man. Very sad. R.I.P Rob.

[aimeemannfan2010]

I didn't know Rob Grill passed away! What a loss. When and what did he pass away from?

[violetjm]

@aimeemannfan2010 - Rob Grill died July 11, 2011. (Age 67.) He had been in a coma since sustaining a head injury a few weeks earlier when he fell after suffering a stroke in Lake County, Florida. Wonderful, talented man.

[jjmmjj44]

@aimeemannfan2010 he passed awy around august 1st . we saw them on tour in miwaukee on aug, 7. I believe it was the first concert ever without him, i really miss his vocals....

[ringo244]

Rob Grill lead singer dies at age 67 Rock on Rob

[cllewis1]

live vocals over a music track?

[brofranomo]

@cllewis1 No. Totally recorded "lypsinc" in a studio for the show. Beatles, Moody Blues, just to name a couple of bands who did it.

[killjoytjp]

Rest in peace, Rob

RIP Rob. (also belated RIP to former drummer Rick Coonce, d. 2/25/11). To respond to an earlier post, Creed is currently a cast member on The Office.

[Goods17]

What a tragic loss. I was to see them next week here in Florida. Rob will be missed tremendously. Thank God we have these video's and the music that will live on forever. RIP Rob.

[imgone54321]

One hell of a band they must have in Heaven now

[gabelguy10]

I was actually online listning to the grassroots when I read that Rob Grill had passed.I was shocked and saddened.His music will live on forever.RIP

[Krangypoo]

Great song by a great group. Just glad I had the chance to witness Rob Grill in concert with Tommy James twice.

[skyline2343]

RIP Rob- thanks for all the great music!

[marfragg]

RIP Rob, we will miss you madly :(

[AngelaRed]

R.I.P. Rob , I will forever be a fan!

[JamesDHake116]

where in the heck is creed, such a good lead guitarist!

[losttouchwithreality]

@JamesDHake116 Creed quit the band right before this single was recorded.

[MsJan1974]

Not only was it great music but we also had great looking guys to look at!

[YesiLove10]

I wish those were my times....

But I still got love for the 60's & 70's (:

[cmartin19711]

I only have one word to say about this video..................GROOOOV­Y!

[MultiJRobert]

I will say they are lip synching their own song cause where are the trumpets, etc? And it sounds exactly like their release. And what is the bass guitarist doing? Does he play or is he high? I still love them. I want to take Rob home and kiss him!

[fouxminecraft]

@MultiJRobert the keyboard is doing the trumpets, and this sounds nothing like the recording that i have

[MultiJRobert]

Lead singer is so hot.  Love this song!!

[brendan129]

No Creed!!!! Therefore it sucks.

[ChrisCurtisFan]

Your Grass Roots vids are fantastic!! Thank you!!

[criesatnight]

Why is the bassist pretending to play? Loser.

[helterselter]

I LOVE THE LEATHER JACKET,THAT WILL NEVER GO OUT OF STYLE.

[mjfoghat]

@sixtiespopgold--Thanks for posting these classics in such high quality, very nice.

[shadoww1000]

fine songs by a very credible group...and Ms Janis..there isgood music now too ..u just need to look a but..AKA..Shinedown is a fine band,,,

[killjoytjp]

Take me back to my teenage days!

[SMcG2012]

Is it just me or are the lead singer and drummer wearing the same jacket in different colors? And I have to say it... bitchin' stache!

[Amazingsound]

Rob Grill is a gorgeous man with a very sexy voice. Whoa.

[mybabba]

@Amazingsound I agree! His voice is incredible. And Warren was no slouch in the looks department either.

[239tucker]

@mybabba Don't tell anyone but I liked Warren best...great looks, loved his deep voice and the way he moved when playing/singing. Very cool guy.

[melliemae]

I'd kill for that jacket!!!!!!!!!

[w9x7cv3vg6]

it prooves that the videos are out there somewhere esp in the USA i just came across it sooooo bizy I had the 45 when it came out though back then

[17865329]

Excellent, how bout incredible quality, how did u manage it?

[MsJan1974]

Take me back to 1969! My favorite group of all times. So nice to look at too! No music today compares with this. The Grass Roots knew how to make music!

[theCheesenOnions]

this music generated a good vibe......the so called crap music of today is a negative sound.....it makes houseplants shrivel.......

[jessesgirl1956]

Love this!!!!

[TheBach2rock]

wow! my first time seeing tihs video. Fantastic. I was lucky enough to get to see them a few years ago. What is wrong with Rob?

[oOMadhuriOo]

Wow, perfect quality. Thanx for uploading ...

[luangu]

The keyboardist's outfit should be in a fashion museum--right down to the red socks & white shoes!

[BCK]

@luangu Denny Provisor. Overkill on the colors!

[pkappel006]

@luangu I had a pair of red pants back in 69 but this tops mine, that guy had it all going for him......you just gotta love it! We all will miss you rob............Amen

[bancoran]
