The Grassroots - Della Linda Midnight Confessions

Review by Asep Goemilar

Album Review: Della Linda / Midnight Confessions by The Grassroots If you’re a fan of late ‘60s rock with a pop twist, Della Linda / Midnight Confessions by The Grassroots is worth your time. Released under Roulette Records and produced by Steve Barri, this album dives deep into the era’s Rock & Roll vibe while keeping things catchy and fun. It’s not perfect, but it’s got charm—and sometimes that’s all you need. Let’s talk tracks. First up, “Midnight Confessions.” This one sticks in your head like gum on a hot sidewalk. The vocals are raw yet smooth, with an emotional punch that feels real enough to make you stop whatever you're doing and just listen. There’s something about the way the harmonies build—it’s like they know exactly when to hit you with the feels. And the guitar? Subtle but sharp, adding just the right amount of edge without stealing the spotlight. It’s no wonder this track became one of their biggest hits. Then there’s “Della Linda,” which takes a slightly different turn. It’s more laid-back, almost like a lazy summer afternoon where nothing much happens—but in the best way possible. The melody has this easygoing groove that sneaks up on you. You might not notice at first, but halfway through, you’ll find yourself humming along. The lyrics aren’t groundbreaking, but they don’t have to be; it’s simple storytelling done well. What makes these songs memorable isn’t just the music—it’s how they transport you back to a specific moment in time. Listening to them feels like flipping through an old photo album, full of faded colors and nostalgia. Sure, some parts sound dated now (hello, ‘60s production quirks), but that’s part of the appeal. It’s authentic, unpolished, and refreshingly human. Steve Barri deserves credit for letting The Grassroots do what they do best—crafting tunes that balance heart and energy. He didn’t overproduce or try to reinvent the wheel here, and honestly? That was the right call. In the end, Della Linda / Midnight Confessions isn’t going to change your life, but it doesn’t need to. Sometimes, music is just meant to be enjoyed for what it is—a snapshot of its time, a little escape from reality. And hey, if nothing else, it’s proof that even decades later, good hooks never go out of style. Now excuse me while I hit repeat… again.
