@mindfullofbread It probably IS her! I read she was at the festival with Brian Jones, and hung out with the Mamas & Papas and others....

@MrAssaabloy That rat was a chinchilla cap that John Phillips liked to wear. Now you can go google 'who were the mamas and papas.'

[MrAssaabloy]

Well... God is near. But after you enjoy popularity and inevitably die, only than are worth a cent. God is near. Worms.. In some countries worms are a sauce.

Now this is proper music.I can't think of anywhere i would like to be more than this.Every musician in the world should aspire to be as good a the mamas and the papas.Because they set the bar.They still are the best.

It's good to see how important Michelle's voice is in the harmonies! Mama Cass is great, but Michelle is a good contrast

[johnmitchel1958]

Who was that on electric guitar?

[johnmitchel1958]

@kdm98 You're so wrong.
