If you enjoy Falsetto as I do be sure to listen to the ending.

 

Hello Stranger

 

Great band...

 

I saw the Turtles play live as well as Barbara Lewis who made the most well known recording of Hello Stranger. She actually wrote the song. I still have it on a 45 rpm.

 

A great documentary about the actual musicians who played the studio recordings of the hits...
