    I beg to differ with the author of the notes for this entry. Surfer Dan apes Jan & Dean, a sound that truly is distinctive from the Beach Boys 90% of the time. That said, this is a fine collection of turtles music.

  • Elenore

    One of their best songs, and one of the best bands of the '60's.

  • EXCELLENT!!! Just a Great Album!

    Not to be missed. You Showed Me is a freat song and so are the other 11 tracks.

  • Amazing Stuff

    The Turtles should not be mistaken for some of their more earnest contemporaries. It is no coincidence that Flo and Eddie worked with Frank Zappa when the band were defunct. This album is an impressive tour through the various subgenres popular at the time of its release. Hilarious and cool at the same time.

  • Thank you!

    I'm so glad this album is available. I just love "You Showed Me".

  • Listen closely ...

    The humor and goofiness of the Turtles may make you miss some really well-crafted production. You Showed Me is a great example -- haunting and touching, great arrangement and a strange-but-perfect final chord on the fade-out.

  • Hidden Treasure!

    "Oh, Daddy" is a nice rock song. I thought only the Beatles wrote riffs like that in '68. I guess not!
