If you grew up listening to the Top 40 on an AM radio, you'll remember these guys:

Rob Grill, the longtime lead singer and a very nearly original member of The Grass Roots, the immensely popular rock group of the 1960s and afterward, died on Monday in Tavares, Fla. He was 67.

The cause was complications of a head injury he sustained in a fall last month, his wife, Nancy, said. Mr. Grill was a longtime resident of Mount Dora, Fla.

Enjoy their music:
