Turtles, The - You Baby/Let Me Be '2017 (1966)

Tracks list

Review by Scott Yanow:

Review by Edsel Records:
The Turtles enjoyed eighteen US hit singles between 1965 and 1970, three of
which (“Happy Together”, “She’d Rather Be With
Me” and “Elenore”) were also huge hits in the UK. From their
original incarnation as surf band The Crossfires, all the way to their final
single, the Turtles traversed several different musical paths during their
career. It is precisely this power through diversity that makes the
Turtles’ body of work one of the most rewarding and enjoyable of the
1960’s – they never met a genre they didn’t like. The
Turtles’ second long player, You Baby (issued in April 1966), showed the
band shifting from serious folk-rockers to a good time band with a sense of
humour. Headlined by their third hit single, “You Baby” and a
reprise of their second, “Let Me Be”, both songs were composed by
the powerhouse West Coast songwriting team of P.F. Sloan and Steve Barri. With a
booklet note by Andrew Sandoval, this 2CD digipak edition (exclusive to the UK)
has been newly re-mastered in both mono and stereo by Bill Inglot.
