- There's no story quite like Mama Cass Elliot's story. The Gertrude Stein of Laurel Canyon, the girl with the booming voice.

John Phillips was a reprehensible man. Cass, on the other hand, seems like an absolute sweetheart, and so talented.
The fact that their stories are so interwoven is unfair to say the least. Thank you for watching!
I didn't realize how young she was when she passed. Think of all the amazing things she could have done.
Cass has a voice like an angel 😇
I love Mama Cass who was so amazingly talented and obviously a wonderful person. I remember when she died and it still makes me sad.
When I heard the "ham sandwich" story, I assumed "heart attack" because my maternal grandfather was barfing and looked like he was choking when he had his heart attack.
The one time I saw Cass doing a comedy sketch where the humor didn't involve her weight was on the Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour. She was singing "Dream a Little Dream of Me" as she was lulling Tommy Smothers to sleep. Just as he was about to honk out, she'd get to the bridge where she was belting, and he'd bolt up. My (already high) respect for the Smothers Brothers went up when I saw the skit.
John Phillips was a creep on many levels. His fat phobia with Cass pales in comparison to the stuff he did to his daughter Mackenzie.
I'm a guitarist in Amarillo Texas.
I've never looked at Cass Elliot as anything less than my second mother.
I study her relentlessly. I like to know the deep things about those who have influenced my musical output.
I'm grateful for the information this Channel has provided.
Outstanding praise....and I agree. Being an 80s and 90s music lover in Australia, I ended up loving the blues.
At the young age of 24, I started playing guitar (still playing....albeit poorly....30 years later). I absolutely fell in love with Bonnie's music as it was not the basic blues and crossed into some mainstream stuff.
She has so much depth to her art, and it actually strikes me as weird that nobody understood it. Anyway.....thank you for pointing out something obvious that most people have no idea about!!!
You rock!!!!🤘😊
Great one about mama cass. It has always bothered me the fat-phobia in the song Creeque Alley, great happpy song, but i always felt if had been comfortable enough to put that on a record, naturally that is what is going on behind closed doors too. Sad story of Cass but great legacy, and love your videos and history deep dives as always!
Mama Cass Elliot now has a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
What a brilliant video! Thanks x
I had never heard of her!! Thank you for sharing her with us!!
You where great doing this, I really loved Cass and her voice...
Love your content nice to see someone who can tell the whole story and true thanks for all the work you must put in to learn music lovers

I follow you on TikTok and I’m loving your content.
Can you do an episode on Loretta Lynn? Such an interesting amazing woman 🧡
Absolutely!! Loretta is definitely on my list.
💛💛💛 Mama Cass 🧡🧡🧡
Cass was great but she got in with some bad people which may have contributed to her early death, will always wonder what she could have done❤
John Phillips was a monster.
Disgusting person overall.
Had to switch off. Too much vocal fry! 😮
Cant take your voice sorry.
You can't tell me that Denny didn't slap the meat to Cass a time or two. We've all did a little "chubby chasin" a once or twice. There, I said it
the real truth about cassie elliot she was murdered.. before the murders of sharon tate and friends she used to party with them at the wee hours of the night and of course lots of traffic going on there if you know what i mean. anyway the night of the murders its been said she went there at 4:00 am in the morning and was the first one to discover the bodies of sharon jay steven parents abagial and boyfried... someone heard a woman scream and that was cassie she told someone about it and she was scared to come forward what she saw....
