Rob Grill, Lead Singer & Bassist for The Grass Roots died on Monday, July 11. Call it a guilty pleasure , if you will, but I am a huge Grass Roots fan & feel they belonged in that joke of a Hall Of Fame ahead of many that are already enshrined. Thank you, Rob, for all of the music I loved so much growing up. Godspeed, man.
