Pop music with a martial beat – yes?

“Happy Together” knocked the Fab Fours’ “Penny Lane” out of the number one slot. It would be The Turtles only chart-topper in the United States. The trumpet player was gay before gay was cool.

      Yup…She’s the “pretty nurse, selling poppies from a tray.”

      P. S. Love the upbeat stuff the Turtles always did; made me think I had a chance, somehow, too.
