Editorial Review:
Album Description:
This low-priced disc is far & away the best single-CD compilation ever issued of the Grass Roots' work, 16 chart singles covering every phase of their history, from 1966's 'Where Were You When I Needed You' (in its actual hit version) thru 'Let's Live for Today' & 'Midnight Confessions' to their last hit, 1972's 'The Runway.' Originally released in 1996. MCA.
Amazon.com:
As a band the Grass Roots were always a shadowy bunch, a front for studio musicians and professional songwriters looking to get their songs on the radio. They scored 14 top 40 hits during their reign in the late '60s/early '70s and their hits were among the catchiest and most enjoyable of the AM radio era. "Let's Live for Today," "Midnight Confessions," "Bella Linda," "Two Divided by Love," and a slew of others are shameless pop made brilliant by multilayered harmonies and arrangements that liberally borrowed from folk-rock and R&B. The Grass Roots may have been product, but what great product. --Rob O'Connor

- The Grass Roots still sound great!If you were a fan of the Grass Roots and want a really good comprehensive collection of their hits, this is a good one. Everything that I remember hearing at the time is here. A couple of the songs seemed to have the lead vocal mixed a little quieter compared to the instrumental tracks but I like this CD. All of my favorites are here, and these guys still sound great! They got a lot of airplay back then, but you don't hear them as much as I would like on stations that play 60's music these days. ...

- With Four More Selections This Is A 5-Star CompilationI agree completely with the reviewer who suggests that MCA could have been a bit more generous and expanded this to include the missing hits he mentions, along with one he overlooked - Only When You're Lonely, their second charter for Dunhill in fact, and a # 96 Billboard Pop Hot 100 in September 1966.
There is a nice fold-out insert containing three pages of liner notes written by Todd Everett in May 1996, a discography of the contents, and reproductions of their LP covers Let's Live ... Read More
