(Book). If Howard Kaylan had sung only one song; the Turtles 1967 No. 1 smash hit "Happy Together;" his place in rock-and-roll history would still be secure. But that recording; named in 1999 by BMI as one of the top 50 songs of the 20th century; with over five million radio plays; is only the tip of a rather eye-opening iceberg. For nearly five decades; Howard Kaylan has been a player in the rock-and-roll revolution. In addition to his years with the Turtles; Kaylan was a core member of Frank Zappas Mothers of Invention and the dynamic duo Flo and Eddie; and part of glam rock history with Marc Bolan and T. Rex. Hes also given street cred and harmonies to everyone from John Lennon; Bruce Springsteen and Alice Cooper to the Ramones and Duran Duran; to name just a few. Howard Kaylans life has been a dangerous ride that he is only too happy to report on; naming names and shedding shocking tales of sex; drugs; and creative excess. Shell Shocked will stand alone as not only one of the best-told music-biz memoirs; but one with a truly candid and unmatchable story of rock-and-roll insanity and success from a man who glories in it all.
