Sloan and Steve Barri in order to release folk-rock music, including “Where Were You When I Needed You”. The single took off but without a band to promote it, they subsumed another group, The Bedouins. But The Bedouins were not keen to continue in the folk-rock genre and all but the drummer abandoned Sloan and Barri.
The album of the same name foundered without a band to promote it. Another group, The 13th Floor, was brought in and adopted the Grass Roots name. “Let’s Live for Today” was the first single from the newly assembled band.
They had several hits during the years that followed but the line-up of the band changed several times and as they moved into the 70s, the hits fell away. By 1975 it was all over.
Amazon.comAs 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.
