The Mamas and the Papas had a sound that helped define a portion of the 1960s. Their breezy folk classics had a bit of San Francisco psychedelia woven in, and, despite the sweet harmonies, there was also a noticeably dark feel to some of their more popular work. "California Dreamin" and "Monday, Monday" both utilized enough minors to give them a spooky edge. Greatest Hits is an essential part of any audiophiles collection, especially if they dont have the original recordings that spawned the hits. "Dedicated to the One I Love" is almost ironic for its tenderness, considering the turmoil that rumbled through the bands interrelationships. While John and Michelle Phillips and Denny Doherty were all responsible for the success of the Mamas and the Papas, listening to this collection reveals that the late great Mama Cass was not only the heart but the soul of the band. Greatest Hits closes with her "Dream a Little Dream of Me," and serves as a touching tribute to Cass Elliots talent. --Steve Gdula

It took Amazon just one second to find the CD I wanted, prompted me for a list of the best prices, one click to order and it came when promised just a few days later.
Throughout, I was e-mailed on the progress of the transaction and delivery.
Cant beat it!

We bought this CD for our young granddaughter who loved the song "Monday, Monday," which this disc contains. However, she really liked all the other songs included in the collection. Another fan for the Mamas and the Papas!!!!
