RockerMike and Rob Presents: Charles F. Rosenay and Mark Arnold
Not Just Happy Together: The Turtles From AM Radio to Zappa by Charles F. Rosenay and Mark Arnold is a detailed chronicle of the 1960s pop rock band The Turtles. The 466-page book covers the band’s entire history, from their origins as The Crossfires through their mainstream success, including the hit “Happy Together,” and later collaborations with Frank Zappa. The book explores the band’s hits like “It Ain’t Me Babe,” “She’d Rather Be with Me,” and “Elenore,” as well as their less-known ventures like performing with T. Rex and Bruce Springsteen. It also touches on the legal and business issues they faced with their record label, White Whale.
The authors bring a wealth of experience in music history, having written about iconic bands like The Monkees and The Beatles. Through interviews with band members and associates, the book provides fresh insights and behind-the-scenes stories that appeal to both casual listeners and hardcore fans of the band.
