He walked on stage with a cane and a pronounced limp, and had some singing limitations, often letting Dawson sing lead. A month earlier he had suffered a pair of strokes after falling, then was stricken with pneumonia and lapsed into a coma. I'll miss ya, brother. This would give us something to hold on to now that he is gone although he will always be in our Hearts. ), That July Monday, in the arms of his beloved Nancy, Rob Grill died at age 67. I told him I had a cover version of Midnight Confessions by the Blake Babies that was interestingly odd. Rob retired at a relatively early age, married Nancy and picked a county outside Orlando known for its fishing (maybe not in that order.). Thanks, Rob. Rob looked and sounded great. Writing your own material and creating albums, Grill said, wasn't as important.". Kim has 3 boys, too! We’d gather at someone’s house and grill out or whatever. The group’s performance of that song Monday was particularly emphatic, with guitarist Dusty Hanvey playing an authentic psychedelic guitar solo that the crowd cheered heartily. You were so very lucky to have him in your life but he was always in my heart too. Please do it for the fans, I bet Rob would love it too. You managed to keep Robs dignity and that is a special gift from you! And in 1998 I emceed a concert with The Grassroots and finally met ROB GRILL. I didn’t know Rob Grill from Adam but as soon as I started humming the Grass Roots songs, I was surprised at how many were rolling around in my head. Leave feedback, Robert Frank "Rob" Grill (born November 30, 1943 in Los Angeles, California) is an American singer, songwriter and bass guitarist best known as lead singer of the highly successful (between 1967 and 1972) rock and roll band, The Grass Roots. But he also has the number for All-American Rejects' Nick Wheeler on his cell phone, wrote the first story ever done on Jack's Mannequin and hung out in Wiz Khalifa's hotel room. It's like losing an old friend. The first record album i ever purchased with my own money was THE GRASS ROOTS 16 GREATEST HITS. In 1979 Grill launched a short-lived solo career with the album Uprooted, with members of Fleetwood Mac joining him on the sessions. I he you are well. Very Romantic! I had the good fortune of meeting Rob back in 1983. I read all good things about Rob from people who actually met him and talked with him. Rob Grill, who for nearly 45 years was the voice of the 1960s band The Grass Roots and sang on such hits as “Midnight Confessions,” “Temptation Eyes” and “Live For Today,” died Monday just hours before the group was to take the stage at Musikfest Café at the ArtsQuest Center at SteelStacks. In addition to complications from his stroke, it was reported that Grill had sustained a head injury after a fall days ago. I love their songs! For me, it’s one of those passings that hurts deep inside. May God bless Rob his family and all the Grass Roots. We recorded songs that were hits. I got to talk with him backstage and he was just a genuine guy and class act. Accessing the Artists that got lost in the Sixties and Seventies, Thanks again and much love to you, More later, Nancy, Saddness surrounds those who loved and appreciated the wonderful man we call Rob Grill. a very fortunate man to have met nancy and my heart goes out to her. Grill had a connection to the Lehigh Valley. Thank you for your beautiful words! We always looked forward to seeing them; Rob in particular. They talk about their upcoming album and tours. “We say God bless you, and Rob says the show must go on.”. I am keeping you in my thoughts and prayers. Our thoughts are with you Nancy & Family. An incredible talent one of the great voices of rock and roll who defined an era of music for me. Please think about how it would have been if you didn’t get to marry him, that’s how the rest of us feel. I would see him several more times(last time 2007). I have a Midnight Confession to make - The Grass Roots are my most favorite band of all time. Grill launched a solo career in 1979, assisted on his solo album by several members of Fleetwood Mac. As a teenager I would hear those great songs like MIDNIGHT CONFESSIONS and say WOW, I love that voice! After we moved to California we lot touch. I was fortunate enough to see Rob in concert through out the years. Thank you,Rob,for being there. In all, with Grill The Grass Roots had just two gold albums and just one that went platinum, but tallied an amazing 15 Top 30 hits from 1966-72, and had almost continuous chart presence with its hits, which also included "Sooner or Later" and "Two Divided By Love.".
