Golden Hits was released later that year, charting in the top The similar album covers for The Turtles! In , rhythm guitarist Jim Tucker left the band citing the pressure of touring and recording new material.

He moved to Grass Valley where he became an electrical contractor. He has denied that he left the band because John Lennon was rude to him as suggested by the Turtles' lead singer Howard Kaylan. The first two singles in , "Sound Asleep" and "The Story of Rock and Roll", stalled somewhere in the middle of the top The band's fortunes changed when Chip Douglas returned to work with them in the studio.

Late in the band released a concept album called The Turtles Present the Battle of the Bands , in which the group pretended to be 11 different bands with fanciful names including 'The Bigg Brothers', 'Nature's Children', 'the US Teens featuring Raoul', and 'the Fabulous Dawgs' , each with a song in a different genre.

Towards the end of , the group released its next album, Turtle Soup , a critically well-received LP produced by Ray Davies of the Kinks. Inspired by the revered concept album The Kinks Are the Village Green Preservation Society , this was Davies's only released production work for another band although Davies had previously produced demo recordings for The Iveys.
