Written by Garry Bonner and Alan Gordon, the song was released in 1967 and became The Turtles’ best-known recording, reaching number one on the Billboard Hot 100. Its bright melodic character and distinctive vocal harmonies reflect the colorful pop-rock sound of the late 1960s. \u003cspan class=\"contents\" data-content-reference-start=\"559\" data-content-reference-end=\"592\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchor\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"598\" data-end=\"918\"\u003ePublished in Istanbul by Musiki Ar-Ak Evi, the sheet belongs to the output of one of the notable music publishers and printing houses active in Turkey during the 1960s and 1970s.

A popular song could be brought into the home through a piano, guitar, or another instrument, allowing families and friends to reproduce and share the music themselves. In this sense, this sheet music is not simply a printed song but a small surviving document of the social and domestic music culture of mid-20th-century Turkey.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"1346\" data-end=\"1660\"\u003eFor collectors of vintage sheet music, The Turtles memorabilia, American pop-rock, 1960s popular music, international music ephemera, and Turkish music publishing history, this Istanbul-printed edition offers an evocative example of how American popular music was published and enjoyed in Turkey during the period.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(170, 26, 23);\"\u003eKey Features:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"1677\" data-end=\"1698\" class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchorContainer\"\u003e• Artist: The Turtles\u003cspan class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchor\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"1700\" data-end=\"1728\"\u003e• Song Title: Happy Together\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"1730\" data-end=\"1780\"\u003e• Original Songwriters: Garry Bonner \u0026amp; Alan Gordon\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"1782\" data-end=\"1811\"\u003e• Publisher: Musiki Ar-Ak Evi\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"1813\" data-end=\"1842\"\u003e• Publication Place: Istanbul\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"1844\" data-end=\"1871\"\u003e• Publication Period: 1960s\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"1873\" data-end=\"1892\"\u003e• Language: English\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"1894\" data-end=\"1926\"\u003e• Genre: Pop Rock \/ American Pop\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"1928\" data-end=\"1949\"\u003e• Format: Sheet Music\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"1951\" data-end=\"2050\"\u003e• Subject: The Turtles, Happy Together, American Popular Music and Vintage Turkish Music Publishing\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\" data-start=\"2052\" data-end=\"2236\" data-is-last-node=\"\" data-is-only-node=\"\"\u003e• Collector Appeal: A vintage Istanbul-printed sheet music publication documenting the circulation of American pop-rock music and the domestic music culture of mid-20th-century Turkey.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Turkrex Collectables","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50331115421834,"sku":null,"price":30.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0716\/3687\/7450\/files\/1_227e64cc-a326-46a7-bfe9-022e700aca58.jpg?v=1790852962","url":"https:\/\/turkrexcollectables.com\/products\/the-turtles-happy-together-turkish-vintage-musical-notes-sheet-turkey","provider":"Turkrex Collectables","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
