5 out of 5 stars Why Aren't They in the Rock n' Roll Hall of Fame??.......2006-04-05

This is a brilliant overview of a really great and under-appreciated 60's band. And let's be clear about one thing...they were a BAND!! Unlike many of they're contemporaries who used studio musicians when recording in the studio (sorry you fan's of THE Association!!) these guy's were great musicians as well as arrangers, writers and producers. Besides the Hits, you get a good helping of essintial tracks in this collection that are just as good as the more popular tunes. This is a far better collection the the Greatest Hits package now available. My only question to the snobs who run the R n' R Hall of Fame....why aren't these guys in the Hall?? Come on already!! They are far more deserving than some of the acts already in there.

5 out of 5 stars the turtles rule, man.......2005-11-04

hey, blockhead! whadduya doing reading this? you should be in the groove zone, playing righteous air guitar to 'somewhere friday night' or downtown, belting out backup vocals to 'eleanor' in your shiny little mustang! and if you're not then Get To It! :) <> :)

5 out of 5 stars The more I listen the more I like it........2004-10-03

At first I was a little overwhelmed with a 2 disk Turtles set but now I'm very glad I didn't just go for a Happy Together Best of CD. Disk one has awsome covers of "It ain't me babe" and "Eve of destruction" and a bunch of really groovy originals. Disk two has the hits "Happy Together" "she'd rather be with me" and "Elenore". Which is why I bought the CD. It also has songs that have become my new favotites: "Me about you", "Guide for the married man", "You showed me" and "Marmendy Mill (demo)" (a song I'm sure you won't find anywhere else.

5 out of 5 stars The Best Group Of The 60's!.......2004-04-13

I consider the Turtle's to be the best Rock/Pop group ever! After you buy this CD set you probably will feel the same way.
They were for sure a super talented group, and they are my "Beatles". Buy this CD and you wont be sorry. Its a joy to listen to and leaves you with just a good 60's feeling. Every Turtles fan should own this collection! Music today just doesn't get this good...groovy man groovy!

5 out of 5 stars Just about every song a masterpiece.......2002-12-04

I have followed these guys from The Turtles to Zappa to Flo and Eddie and I am [upset] that they aren't in the Hall of Fame but as the French say, "There is no arguement when it comes to taste", I own cds from Duke Ellington to Dwight Yoacum and this is the one I am really passionate about
