DESCRIPTION
A very rare ‘promo’ Aussie pressing of this scarce 5th single from US outfit The Turtles ….the B-side written by vocalist / keyboard player Howard Kaylan.The Turtles were an American pop, psychedelic and folk rock band defined by a good-natured, joyously melancholic and occasionally cheeky sound. A precursor to the bubblegum pop of the late 1960s and a foil to the more self-consciously hip and "serious" acts of the era, the Turtles produced at least a dozen memorable, radio-friendly chart singles but remain best known for 1967's "Happy Together".
This particular single never troubled the charts too much Downunder, sold poorly and copies are few and far between.
MORE NOTES
The band — originally a surf rock group called The Crossfires — was formed in 1965 in Westchester, California (a Los Angeles neighborhood) by Howard Kaylan and Mark Volman. With the help of DJ and club owner Reb Foster, the Crossfires signed to White Whale Records, and, adhering to the prevailing musical trend, re-branded themselves as a folk rock group called "The Tyrtles", the intentional misspelling inspired by The Byrds. However, the trendy spelling did not survive long. As with the Byrds, the Turtles achieved breakthrough success with a Bob Dylan cover. "It Ain't Me Babe" reached the Billboard Top Ten in the late summer of 1965 and was the title track to the band’s first album.A NOTE ON PACKING & POSTAGE
