The Turtles Present the Battle of the Bands (Music)	comment	The Turtles Present the Battle of the Bands was the fourth album by The Turtles, released in 1968.Graciously, rather than promote themselves, the band decided to use the album to showcase the talents of 11 different bands by featuring one song from each of them. Sadly, nothing was ever heard from any of these bands again after this album.One interesting fact is that, judging by the photos of the bands inside the gatefold sleeve, they all had members who looked a lot like The Turtles. The singers also had voices reminiscent of them as well....Okay, all of the bands actually are The Turtles. Going beyond what The Beatles had done on Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, the band decided to take on the persona of not just one but many Fake Bands, allowing them to showcase their musical versatility while doing Affectionate Parodies of various genres.While the album only sold modestly, it spawned two Top Ten hits ("Elenore" and "You Showed Me") and is now considered a Cult Classic.

The Turtles Present the Battle of the Bands (Music) / int_cff53786	comment	Cover Version: The majority of the album contains Turtles originals, but one of its hit singles was a cover of "You Showed Me", an early song by Gene Clark and Roger McGuinn recorded by the members of The Byrds shortly after they got together but before they formally became The Byrds. They did two other non-originals: "Earth Anthem" written by Bill Martin (who'd written some songs for The Monkees) and the title track, composed especially for the album by Harry Nilsson and producer Chip Douglas.
