DVD Reviews of The Turtles - Happy Together
DVD Review: Excellent DVD on The Turtles History
Summary: 5 Stars
This is one of the best of all dvd/vhs movies I ever purchased focussing on the beginnings of a great 60's rock & roll band to date! The songs featured on this dvd can be played separately or throughout the filming and discography and sound excellent. I also saw them live the last time back in the 80's during their Happy Together Tour which then also had the Monkees, Gary Pucket & the Union Gap, Grass Roots, the Association,
Hermans Hermits and Spanky & Our Gang as I remember.
I love how the original members explain their start and unbelievable unexpected propelling into mainstream rock & roll acceptance then when they really were a bunch of geeky, frumpy local southern California kids in highschool who grew up together like the rest of us then, and simply enjoyed getting together to make music, and everything that happened to them was literally by chance & luck along the way before they even realized what was happening. I like the Tom Jones tour bus matter too!
I especially like the candid explanation about how the Beatles' vision and influence of the early 60's was thought of by them and many of us here in the States, and then seeing one Turtles band member when finally seeing the "real Beatles" in a UK tour a few years later, became so upset seeing what he visioned of the Beatles (his heroes of sorts) to really be a group of UK rockers messed up on drugs & alcohol and wiped out nightly at a local UK nightclub the Turtles would play at on the tour. It affected one Turtles' band member so much seeing this side of the Beatles, he walked out after a few days playing the gig. I have always wondered if there was no British Invasion in the 60's, where US rock music would have gone? Because due to the British Invasion, is where the influx of drugs into US culture initially was supplied from and the rest is history...
Excellent 90 minutes of pure nostalgic fun and excitement of this American group of the most unexpected, unlikely and un-rock-like fellows who made some lasting music that is still very enjoyable today. Unbelievable vocal abilities and instrument ability by each member which also actually gave way to other 60's groups who built on them and what they did.
