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.

Didn't they also cover Laguna Sunrise and, if I'm not mistaken, they did a version of N.I.B. that has Ozzy on the Vocals

I know the newer version of NIB is done by Primus with Ozzy on vocals.I can't recall Laguna Sunrise being done by Pantera but I have some fairly obscure Pantera recordings that could very well have it.
