Many times on BlogExplosion I've come across a blog called No Ordinary Moment. Among other blog-y posts it features the artwork of the author, and I'm quite fond of her work.
As a matter of fact, were I ever to be in the position where I could afford to throw down a spare $85 on artwork - or just have a spare $85 period - I'd probably pick up a piece she did called Fraility.
Anyhow, today her blog featured a youtube clip of The Turtles singing their signature hit "Happy Together".
Cheerful eh? Eeven if you get the sense it's all a bit tongue-in-cheek.
Quite the websurfer tonight, I searched for some additional Turtles' clips, and came across this gem. In it the much older Turtles (circa 1990, if YouTube can be trusted) discuss, in painful but humourous detail, the problems they had with their managers during their career. Think it's a simple thing? Just try following the chart they draw:

I saw these guys live in 1971 or '72 on the campus at the University of Hawaii. They played in the amphitheater which was a small venue for a group of this stature. It may have been towareds the end of their career, but it was a fantastic evening. Their performance was excellent!
