Essential Mamas & Papas Collection
This was the 1st CD ever issued of The Mamas & The Papas, in 1986. What makes it very unique is that it contains several different mixes that are ONLY found here. DEDICATED TO THE ONE I LOVE has a different mix, especially heard in Michelle Phillips' opening of the song, and the closing of the song has harmonies by Cass & the group that are closer to the different 45 single mix . Plus MY GIRL is really different, having more of a vibrant mix of vocals by Cass & Denny and a longer fade. And LOOK THROUGH MY WINDOW has a longer fade out too. I prefer the stupendous sound on this CD of these rarities, as well as their biggest hits like CALIFORNIA DREAMIN', MONDAY MONDAY, CREEQUE ALLEY, I SAW HER AGAIN, WORDS OF LOVE, DREAM A LITTLE DREAM OF ME, and the rest. Not much bio or photos in the booklet, but the rare mixes make it an essential CD to have .
