Grass Roots - Temptation Eyes

[@marypiver4040]

If u didn't grow up in the 60s or 70s u will never know what u missed!!!

[@HarperShawn-xu3en]

Hello 😊 how are you doing today??

[@richardpotter2288]

Me, I was born in 1960. And I love this music. It's hard to say what was better the 60s music or the 70s music really. So very many amazing groups from the 60s like the Stones ,The Moody Blues, the Bee Gees The Beatles just never-ending massive talent really. And I love the 70s with groups like Aerosmith, Kiss, Boston, Kansas, all those really good Motown groups. Just so much fantastic music. Music is the best what would we do without it ?

[@kerrylewis7964]

You can't explain it to them.

This was my favorite song by the Grass Roots. I wasn't even a teenager yet but bought this eight track. I would come home from school and just play beautiful music like this until dinner time. What great memories this song gives me. Long live the Grass Roots ❤❤❤

[@megastick9324]

The great thing about 8 tracks in the car was they’d just repeat forever. This was one of those albums, you stuck it in the deck and let it play. So many great songs on it.

At the time and several years later, everyone I knew loved their songs. And those were the days when Queen, Eagles, Michael Jackson and all the other great artists ruled the radio waves. In fact, our yearbook used the first several lines from The Times Of Your Life when you first opened the book.

[@markdye9967]

One of my earliest memories as a kid. Rob "Bob" Grill was a friend of my dad's and they use to fish together when Bob was a starving musician living in his car. We moved from California to Oregon and the Grass Roots played at the Coliseum. A limo pulled up to our little house and Bob and the band came over for dinner with the opening act, Three Dog Night!!!

[@DLBMOS]

Wow...

[@slickmic6113]

Mark Dye that's a great story thanks for sharing it

[@dbrinkm1]

Great Story ! Rob Grill did not forget where he came from and remembered his friends! Very sad that this is NOT the norm in the entertainment and music business today.

[@garypmarquis]

Hey ClayTamm, thanks for the nice compliment. Yes, we boomers enjoyed great songs, but youtube also shares these great moments for all to see and hear. Thank goodness. Back when I was a teen, we had to hope and wait for the D-jay to play or replay, over the airwaves, our fav-tunes. Sometimes waiting for days or weeks to hear it again. Today, tune delivery, is sooooo much greater. Just instantly. But ,no regrets. Just that technology was lacking then. 1953 was a good year for me. I was born at a good time. GPM-53.

In 70 it cost me $1200. 28k on odometer. Never thought I'd see 30 years old so I lived fast and hard until 1988 at near 35 I saw that light. Too stubborn to die.

In southern cal, we were listening to KHJ (an AM station that played all the current, mainstream stuff) for driving and FM (KMET, little bit of heaven 94.7 KMET, a deedle dee).

I saw them perform on the back of a flatbed truck at the opening of the White Front Store in La Mesa, CA in the Spring of 1967. A few months later they were one of the top groups in the county. The other celebrities present were Betty White and Allen (Pass word) Ludden.

[@gulfgypsy]

I remember the White Front stores! We used to go to the one in San Diego, about a mile or so from the San Diego Sports Arena....... Saw Joplin at the SD Sports Arena in 69, IIRC. It was a great time to live in southern California. Perfect weather, beaches, museums and concerts!
