Music Review: The Mamas & the Papas: Greatest Hits

The Mamas & the Papas: Greatest Hits, MCA Records, 1998.

This  C.D. includes the favorite Mamas and the Papas songs.  This includes: "Monday, Monday," California Dreamin,'" "Go Where You Wanna Go," "Dancing in the Street," "Dedicated to the One I Love," "Words of Love," 'Creeque Alley," "I Saw Her Again Last Night," and

 "Dream a Little Dream of Me."  Creeque Alley is an autobigraphical look at how there musical group got together.  "Everybody's getting fat except Mama Cass."

As a group the Mamas and the Papas were short lived, 1965 to 1965 with a brief reunion in 1971.  They were John and Michelle Phillips, husband and wife (John wrote most of their songs), Cass Elliot and Denny Doherty.   

Mamas and the Papas has a unique sound which is very pleasing to listen to.
