English Beat- Tears of a Clown
Roy Buchanan- Hey Joe
Joe Jackson's- San Francisco Fan

I suppose it would count, except that when The Mothers covered "Happy Together", the 2 guys that WERE the Turtles were IN The Mothers Of Invention (Howard Kaylan & Mark Volman; aka Flo & Eddie).
The Turtles went through many different encarnations, but always revolved around Kaylan & Volman. For the record, "Happy Together" was written by Gary Bonner and Alan Gordon, who were in a band in NY called the Magicians.
