TVP Podcast - Ep. 18 - For Love Of The Song - A Tribute to Mark Volman and The Turtles

Through Mark Volman, and the music of The Turtles, I learned how to grow, and “grow past myself.”It took years, but I learned to stop worrying about my physical appearance, get out of my own way, be a musician, and play for “love of the song.”I owe a lot to Mark Volman. My confidence boosted when I found out about him, and his history even past the Turtles.And I will miss him walking around on this Earth.Cheers and salud, Mr. Volman. Hosted by Alex Oliver (the "music man, record guy, host and curator"), The Vinyl Playground Podcast is a series of "mix tape letters to family back home."
