After She'd Rather Be With Me

John Lennon was often a mean drunk, and he noticed that Jim Tucker seemed to be the weak link in the group. According to Kaelin in his autobiography, Tucker was so demoralized by Lennon's abuse that he quit music forever shortly afterwards. From their return to LA on, the turtles would be down to just a five-piece band. After she'd rather be with me, the next single to be released wasn't really a proper single. That didn't chart, but the group followed it with two more top 20 hits written by Bonham and Gordon. You know what I mean, and she's my girl.
