Product Description

For a brief period of time between (about 1966 and 1972, give or take), the Grass Roots were a hit machine: fourteen Top 40 hits, a handful of gold singles, including one tune (Lets Live For Today) that iconically captures its time as clearly as Buffalo Springfields For What Its Worth or Jefferson Airplanes White Rabbit. In the hands of producer Steve Barri, the Grass Roots had grown from a hastily assembled cover band to a full-fledged writing and performing force. Despite having lost lead guitarist Creed Bratton earlier in the year, the band gained keyboardist Dennis Provisor, who turned out to be a valuable addition to the lineup. The first single for the album came out before the rest of the album had been finished, and it was a smash: Id Wait A Million Years. When the record was finally finished, there was another Top 25 track lurking in the grooves: Heaven Knows. But dont overlook such underrated pop gems as Out Of This World and Melinda Love. The latter proves, if youll pardon the double negative, that theres no song that cant be improved with hand claps.

The Grass Roots.......2006-06-19

Don't have the CD remaster but I have a very good vinyl copy of this album . This is definetly the best normal Grass Roots release . Really not a weak cut on it . highly reccomend this if you are a Grass Roots fan .

This Grass Roots GEM finally makes it to CD... .......2006-06-04

Finally, this GREAT LP by The Grass Roots is available on CD...
"Leaving It All Behind" is loaded with some great songs... not only 3 of The Grass Roots major hits, Wait A Million Years, Heaven Knows, and Walking Through The Country... but some of their best pop songs, like Out Of This World, I'm Living For You Girl, Melinda Love... This LP was also the start of Dennis Provisors history with the band... Dennis was the most prolific song writer of the band...
This CD is great and hopefully only the start of other GREAT Grass Roots lps being released on CD... like: "Move Along"
"More Golden Grass", "Lovin' Things", "Alotta Mileage" and "Golden Grass"...

The GRASS ROOTS Pop Sound Kicks into High Gear!.......2005-12-08

First time on CD! And it's a very limited run so obtain while you can.
We've been waiting forever for the non-compilation Grass Roots CD's to see the light of digital day (only 3 others so far) and Hip-O Select has done a great job with this one.
It was here on this album that the formerly folkie/pop group completed the transition to punchy pop. Given the full Jimmie Haskell horn treatment and radio friendly pop production fourishes, Steve Barri turns The Grass Roots into an irresistable hit making machine. And it's not just the 3 Top 40 hits that shine here.
(1. I'd Wait a Million Years 2. Heaven Knows 3. Walkin' Thru The Country)
There are other delights that could easily have been hits, like "Out Of This World" and "Back To Dreamin' Again." New keyboardist Dennis Provisor makes his debut and his contributions are noteworthy, although he would become more of a presence later. He's got 2 songs here but on the next project "More Golden Grass" he would write or co-write about half the album. Provisor's soulful pipes added a new dimension to the group on both lead and shadow vocals.

This group had 14 Top 40 hits and their Best Of compilations always sold well but their regular album releases were marginal sellers at best. And that's a shame because there is lots more to enjoy BEYOND THE HITS if you like 60s/70s feel good pop as "Leaving It All Behind" proves. This is a very satisfying listen from start to finish and there are 2 or 3 essentials here that didn't make the cut for the excellent Grass Roots "Anthology" on Rhino (now out of print).

Here's hoping that more of the Grass Roots catalog will come to CD. There are still several titles that are begging for release. Especially:
"Move Along" (probably their best album)
"More Golden Grass"
"Lovin' Things"

It would be nice to have the other two obscure albums as well,
("Alotta Mileage" and "Grass Roots") but don't hold your breath on that.

Gordie Sampson.... What more can I say?.......2005-05-05

This cd is phenomenal. If you like East Coast, folk/rock music or anything that defies musical category this is a winner. Gordie is an AMAZING songwriter, artist and performer. Lyrics are my thing, and Gordie knows how to use them well. If you're a fan of Jimmy Rankin, Gordie wrote Followed Her Around off of Jimmy's first solo album Song Dog. Sunburn is an excellent investment. It should produce countless hours of enjoyment, and leave you feeling inspired and awed by life. Or at least it does for me...

You Gotta Have This !.......2007-04-21

This album already has a place in the top 5 of my music collection! Excellent tunes, excellent music. Dead-on guitar leads, and the drummer & bass player are tight in each others' pockets. I think pretty much everyone can relate to the lyrics, or has at some point in their lives, which makes it all the more meaningful. All the vocals are great...but the female lead is absolutely phenomenal. What a voice. Check out this CD!!! I've seen these guys live and they play a rockin' show, too!

Great band, great CD!.......2007-03-12

I've seen this band perform live and they get everybody up on their feet. This CD really was "Worth the Wait"--every track is worth listening to. Lyrics don't just fill in the music--they're clever and meaningful. And the music is just plain enjoyable--no weak spots to push "skip" over! Great for party music, next road trip, or for a quick pick-me-up on the way to work so you walk in humming. Highly recommend!

I Love It!.......2007-03-02

I really love this album! Great melodies, great beats. Really easy to listen to! Great driving music - - got it in my car as we speak! Nice mix of styles. An all around winner! These guys are good and I want to hear more from them!

EXCELLENT! ---- Great Original Band! This CD is a MUST HAVE!.......2007-02-23

AWESOME CD!!! This is one of the rare ones that you will actually enjoy listening to from begining to end. Great songwritting and vocals and the music is really tight. Worth The Wait is definately worth a listen! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Customer Reviews:

Tryst's Debut CD is Definitely "Worth the Wait".......2000-10-07

The debut Tryst CD includes 10 original cuts that span a number of genres. From the sweet ballad "This House is Now a Home" to the sexually-charged, blues number, "You Make Me Do Things, " Tryst shows versatility, originality, personality, and sound lyrical and musical talents.

The music of Tryst puts me in mind of other women artists such as Melissa Etheridge, the Indigo Girls, and, sometimes, Mary Chapin Carpenter. Depending upon which song is playing, I see the band touring with any or all of these artists.

The songs I like in particular include "Tender Kisses" (which could easily 'make it big' one day) and "These Shadows." Both songs show raw emotion backed by dynamic compositions.

"Contradictions" and "You Make Me Do Things" add up-beat tempos with intelligent lyrics to the mix. "Into My Heart" borders on country, but not to the point of appearing out of place in this collection.

I highly recommend this CD for listeners of many types of music.
