4.0 out of 5 stars A "transition" album between the first and Happy Together, June 25, 2000

This review is from: You Baby/Let Me Be (+2 Bonus Tracks) (Audio CD)

You Baby, the Turtles second long-player, finds them to be in somewhat of an identity crisis. Although they were moving towards a new, "Lovin' Spoonful"-esque image with the title song, they obviously had quite a bit of folk rock left over (and more yet showed up on Wooden Head).

So this album is like a bridge, basically, between It Ain't Me Babe and the cheerier Happy Together. Not to say it isn't good! Just a Room, the title song...quite a few tracks here more than make the cut. However, the patchwork nature of the album can be more than a bit distracting.

There are two issues of this album availible: this one, and the one on Sundazed Records. THIS is the one to get; the Sundazed has marginally better sound quality, but this REPERTOIRE RECORDS issue has the complete mono/stereo program, plus two incredibly bizarre bonus tracks.
