@bluegrassreb1 Flo (Fluorescent Eel) is the one armed with the tambourine. Eddie is the gentleman dressed in tweed.
-
I love the 'Toit-les'! :)

Johny Barbata is also still active and has a band of his own in Oklahoma.
Chip Douglas lives and works in Hawaii today.
-
@bluegrassreb1 Mark Volman (tambourine) is "Flo"
and Howard Kaylan (lead vocal) is "Eddie".
Both of these guys were 19 when they did this number.
Chip Douglas (bass) was 24 and Johny Barbata (drums) was 21. :)
R.I.P. Jimmy Durante(1893-1980)

I have three veterans of The Turtles
in my Facebook contacts and it's a treat to share music with these guys:
Howard Kaylan, Johny Barbata, and Chip Douglas. :)
Chip is still active in his field of music arrangement today
and has been since he performed with The Turtles...
And if I'm not mistaken, I think both Chip and Johny
made their debut with the band in this episode of the
Hollywood Palace program..

LOL, jimmy durante.

Wow, I thought I knew all of the turtles songs. Here I am 52 yrs old and this is my first time hearing this song.
SEEING SOOOO MANY VIDS HERE ON UTUBE I REALIZE THAT 1) The Turtles had a great drummer and 2) good backing singers. and 3) flo and eddie? who was who? 4) only the lead singer sang while the other seemed to be on his coattells... anyway, i LOVE THIS BAND.
