Album Description

The Turtles are one of the most fondly remembered '60s pop acts—quite an achievement considering that they came up in an era dominated by Motown, The Beatles and other musical giants. After releasing a series of chart-topping singles, including the #1 hit "Happy Together," the band broke up in 1970. Singers Mark Volman and Howard Kaylan continued as a duo under the name Flo & Eddie, recording albums, hosting their own syndicated radio show, and singing backup for T. Rex, John Lennon, Bruce Springsteen, Blondie, and many others. In 1985, they reformed The Turtles as a very successful touring outfit.

Happy Together: The Very Best Of The Turtles collects the band's biggest hits, including the career-defining "Happy Together" and Top 20 smash hits "You Showed Me," "You Baby," and "Elenore." The album also features an early Warren Zevon-penned song, "Outside Chance," and Bob Dylan's "It Ain't Me Babe," as well as the classic protest anthem "Eve of Destruction."

One Of The Great Groups Of Years Gone By.......2007-06-18

This is one of the groups of the 60's if you want something to remember, or learn about from back then. They had a lot of great hits along with Peter & Gordon, Chad & Jeremy, Herman's Hermits, Gerry and the Pacemakers, & the Lovin Spoonful, just to name a few. Don't take my word for it. Listen to the sample songs and buy it for yourself. I just happened to grow up in the 60's so I didn't have a problem loving every song. After you buy this you may want to try some of the other groups next. It becomes a Blast into the Past or for those like me, a trip down Memory Lane.

A nice collection.......2007-04-14

This is a very good collection of the Turtles' biggest hits. Their lite, pop-rock was fun to listen too when I was a kid and still is! While some of the lyrics may not be the most profound, their music is enjoyable. My favorites are the classic "Happy Together", "You Baby," "She'd Rather Be With Me," "Elenore," and "It Ain't Me Babe."

Happy Together..........2007-02-03

I'm a fan of 60's music. "Happy Together" is one of those songs of my elementary school days. I rate this classic collection five stars!!

Cooking Turtles.......2006-11-10

These guys were great in the sixties.....Now those of us who once drifted away have come back and there we find the Turtles. Still sounding as good as they did back then...........it was great to run into these guys again...

Feel good hits from the 60's.......2006-11-06

These are the essential Feel-Good hits from the 60's. This cd features most of the Turtles happy songs. There are a couple of minor hits missing, but they're hardly missed from this collection. The Turtles had the great talent of producing happy, playful songs (Happy Together) as well as meaningful music (Eve of Destruction). The music of the 60's is definitely represented in this greatest hits collection.

Customer Reviews:

Fabulous for any Broadway-lover.......2007-01-30

Packs into 5 CD's a sampling of Broadway tunes from the 20's thru (almost) today, mostly from original cast recordings. Includes not just well-known hits, but also some lesser-known gems. Sound quality is first rate, booklet is informative too. Have given this as a gift to several friends with rave reviews.

Top Shelf.......2007-01-04

This is THE definitive collection of Broadway hits. I have other collections, and none of them measure up. A great deal of care was obviously taken in compiling and presenting this box set. It covers a lot of ground, starting with some long-forgotten but still very enjoyable hits from the days of yore, and finishing with present-day favorites. To the best of my knowledge, the recordings are by those who made them famous. You won't be disappointed.

TERRIFIC CD'S.......2006-03-23

THESE BROADWAY MUSICALS CD'S ARE A BROADWAY LOVERS DREAM. WITH EACH SONG, MEMORIES COME FLOODING BACK. BOTH THE FAMILIAR AND THE FORGOTTEN SONGS ARE A TRUE LISTENING PLEASURE. IF YOU LIKE BROADWAY, YOU'LL LOVE THIS SET.

Great Collection of Broadways greatest Songs .......2005-06-14

This Collection was perfectly made it has almost all the most famous Broadway songs on this 5 cd set. The Music is great and has Broadways greatest treasures like "Memory""People""With One Look""Give my regards Too Broadway" just to name a few of this numerous cd set with over 100 songs. This is a great buy if you like musicals or The music of Broadway

Great Compilation!.......2005-01-17

If you are a fan of the Broadway Musicals, this is a collection that you should purchase. Since I got the 5 disc set I've enjoyed listening to it. The majority of the songs are done by the original singers. The collection is priceless considering that you will have over 100 songs from popular musicals since the beginning of Broadway

Tell me where you're going to........2006-03-31

White Whale was a Los Angeles based independent record label that operated between 1965 and 1971. The Turtles were their most successful act, but they had a few other acts that managed to place singles in the Hot 100. Most of the tracks here are good songs that should have been hits, even if they weren't. I especially like "Follow Me" by Lyme & Cybelle and "All Strung Out" by Nino Tempo & April Stevens, as well as the songs by the Turtles, of course. A lot of these songs are downright obscure, and it's a real treat for pop music fans to have them on CD. The tracks are all in the original mono single mixes, with the exception of "I'll Hold Out My Hand" by the Clique, which is in stereo for some reason that I'm not aware of.

Small label retrospective.......2001-12-31

For a few years in the mid-60s, White Whale records of L.A. put a stream of singles on the charts, headed by their flagship act, the Turtles. This compilation, with a sampling of the Turtles best-known tunes, includes eight top-100 songs along with a variety of singles that didn't get as far. While White Whale had its share of avant-garde material, where it succeeded best was with its classy, sophisticated pop productions. One prime example is "All Strung Out", Nino Tempo, with sister April Stevens', Spectorian pop extravaganza. Beyond the well-known Turtle tracks, this CD includes such rarities as Liz Damon's Orient Express' "1900 Yesterday", Rene and Rene's Latin hit "Lo Mucho Que Te Quiero" and Lyme and Cybelle's "Follow Me". All tracks are mono as they are single versions with the exception of track 17. The eight-page liner notes booklet offers up backround information on the included artists. Overall, an interesting gathering of tracks from this short-lived but productive independent label. For more detailed coverage of the artists on White Whale, there are several Turtles CDs available and Varese Vintage has reissued Nino and April's White Whale album with bonus tracks.

If you enjoy your oldies in mono!.......2001-10-26

I honestly cannot recommend this cd for the following reasons- all selections with exception of I'll Hold Out My Hand are in flat and what sounds like totally unprocessed mono. Many of the songs have a lot of hiss also.I have the cd copy of the Clique lp and it sounds really good in full digital stereo. Ihonestly bought this because I was looking for a clean cd copy of Friends by Feather. The copy here sounds like they pressed it too "loud". It really doesn't sound much better than my original promo 45 copy!. The bottom line is why not remix what they could in true stereo and at least do some reprocessing to enhance the selections that were in mono. I think they just threw it together and really didn't care about the sound quality. What a shame with some real obscure gems here too. Better luck next time White Whale Records. Thanks for the memories!

An Excellent Overview of an Interesting Independent Label.......2001-05-03

If you are looking for an album of the more obscure things you've never come across, this is the CD for you. This focuses on the White Whale label started in 1965. The Turtles were the well known act, but others (The Clique,John's Children,Matthew Moore Plus Four) are the ones to check out on this disc. All tracks, like the original 45s are in mono (except "I'll Hold Out My Hand" by The Clique, which was issued in stereo and is here) and this is a trip back to the underground music and forgotten classics from the 60's. Although there are a few more songs that call for inclusion, and some album tracks (namely from JK and Co's "Suddenly One Summer" album!) this is worth you time and is a collector's dream. Lots of music on here you won't find anywhere else.

great band, great collection, a must to have, and GROOOOVY!!.......2002-10-14

I recognized this groovy California outfit from their hippie tune 'You Showed Me' from a local radio station in my city. Then I was hooked up!... But, then I found that a quite few from recording company to include this number into their record. Then one day, I found this collecion on local record store that include 'You Showed Me'. This collection contains the other 19 tracks that very, very, very delights me.

I highly recommend this record to buy and to enjoy for all of you who enjoys 60's tunes.
