It's not good music is still made in we can come back in listen to the past . I'm 26 in I'm here listening to this . California dreamin is one of my favorite songs . The 60s has some of the best music ever created by humans ever , no one denies that . Good music is still being made , everything changes
Cass Elliott finally received her star on the Hollywood Walk Of Fame this week. It was a grand ceremony with speakers including her daughter, Owen, Cass' sister, Leah, Stephen Stills, Michelle Phillips and John Sebastian. A perfect cool day graced the dedication and various offspring of the Phillips, Elliott clans were in attendance. Cass was an absolute joy to be around and was a walking lesson in how to use your voice. More than a few of us fellow performers studied her method, in hopes of gaining some insight on how she made the glorious sounds she did. Safe sailing, Cass. We were lucky to have you in our lives.
This was my husband and my song in 1975! RIP my darling Joe! You left me 22years ago! I’m 71 now and I never loved again, you were the only man for me that I loved so totally and had three children together with! I will see you again soon and our hearts will beat together for eternity!😞💔
Я из казахстана, мне 60. Слушаю и восхищаюсь. Нам в СССР только на кассетах приходилось слушать такие группы. У меломанов, по большому знакомству. Диски стоили половины заработной платы. Следили органы, как приобрел диск, откуда, у кого.
Yes, they were all breathing and talking. Then the audio track begins, and the Great Mamas & The Papas have to LIP-SYNC their own music in a controlled environment. There is NEVER a reason to LIP-SYNC anything. Musicians, Singers etc, this is their JOB, so if they cannot simply SING and PERFORM LIVE, then they need to choose different careers. Just be Studio Musicians, and never do shows such as this. I give them ZERO Credibility.
@@iknowthatsrite6009 - They are trying to sell records, not impress you or anyone else with live vocals. They succeeded by selling millions of records, being inducted into the Rock n Roll Hall Of Fame, and are considered one of the greatest vocal groups of the 60s. I guess your assignment of credibility means ZERO.
@@iknowthatsrite6009 There are actually very good reasons to lip sync tracks at certain times. I learned this from the guy who was in charge of running Superbowl Pregame Shows for more well over a dozen years straight. If he had not done his job well the first time, they never would have hired him again, let alone for all those years in a row.
@@dahawk8574 ELVIS PRESLEY Never Lip Sank in his performances. He sang every performance LIVE. His movies were a different story due to so many moving parts, stops and starts, and cast members fouling their lines. His concerts, guest appearances, tv spots, etc. Elvis ALWAYS Sang Live, Never Lip Syncing. This says a lot for Elvis, and his abilities as a Great Entertainer. 🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲
You could just tell when you’re seeing Cass singing that there’s a warmth about her, that she loves her fans and she is so appreciative of all the positive attention she got because she truly looked like a woman who just loved being a star
She looked like such a warm, caring person. I would have loved to have known her. She was so beautiful. I hope she found the Lord before her early death.
Without John writing those great songs we wouldn’t have heard of them. Not a fan of John’s life choices but he wrote some great songs to showcase their talents.
Me too. Will be 69 in November. Thanks to an older brother who introduced their music to me at the age of 13 yrs old. Have loved their music since. Continued to follow and collect all of Cass’ work. July 29th 1974 was a sad day for the music world It lost a phenomenal person and singer. Never to be replaced. I look forward to meeting her in heaven someday. She brought a lot of joy in my life as an often confused teenager.
@@PapaAlec Alec, I am so thankful that your generation has been exposed to their music too now. Music is eternal, as we all are too. Check out Janis Joplin’s story and music. Her style was very different from Cass’ but they both knew each other. She made her debut at the very first music concert, at the Monterey Pop Festival back in 1967. You tube has a clip of Janis singing Ball & Chain at the festival which was a ground breaking event. Cass is in the audience and her expression after hearing Janice was recorded is great. It is on You Tube also. Cass was a special lady who was multi talented. Lots of clips on You tube on Carol Burnett and others like Tom Jones. All worth checking out!!
@@rogersargent6453 and I’m just as thankful for the previous generations that gave us such incredible music. I’ve watched that Ball and Chain video (loved it) and I remember Cass going “wow!!” At the end. I don’t know too much about Janis so I’ll have to be sure to read up on her :) I’ve watched so many videos of Cass performing and it never gets boring, she’s so fun to watch. I’m glad there’s so much footage available to help younger people like me find her. I only wish there were more live performances of The Mamas and The Papas lol
@@PapaAlec Hey Alec! Cass and Janis were friends, but each had a totally different style of music. I loved them both! One of my all time favorite Janis song was Little Girl Blue. Check out her live performance on Tom Jones. It is such a moving rendition. That song has been sung by many artist thru the years, but none as heartfelt and emotional as Janis’. According to her sister, Little Girl Blue was Janis’ favorite to perform.
I dance To California Dreaming “ when there’s sunshine in my place with my 1960s gear upon me caftans and all! Thinking of the joy yet sadness of losing sweet Ellen!
I love their out fits they are all totally groovy. The 60s had real style not like now a days where we have zero style. Cue up the time machine beam me back Scotty. Mama Cass has a gorgeous voice and the harmonies are incredible.
@@rainstein3680 yes very sad about the early lost of Mama Cass and then the sudden lost of Karen Carpenter. Two lovely talented women with beautiful voices. R.I.P. ladies you are missed and loved.
Gee I can't wait to get old... "Used to be cheap and talentless naked strippers making my music, not like these abstract shape AI holograms banging on coffee grinders we have to settle for today!"
Can you imagine young kids today forming a band and producing the extraordinary vocal harmony's and quality of sound that the momma's and papa's were willing to create. Just about doesn't exist in our youth today.
Fond memories, of the whole family gathered around the t.v. watching Ed Sullivan Show every Sunday night. Thanks for bring these videos back to enjoy.❤❤❤❤❤❤ L Canada 🇨🇦
First real hippies I ever saw in my life when I was a little boy. They did a more than an excellent job selling the California Dream to a little boy from New Jersey. Their ballads and harmonization are the best
Actually they were the first imitation hippies to hit that big time. Cass may have been a hippie but the others not so much. Do some research and you'll find out that Phillips saw what was going on and knew the hippie thing would sell. Certainly they had some good material and good voices, and perhaps it wouldn't have sold so well without the "hippie" guise.
@andrewz4537 I was actually around 10 when the song came out..I really did not know what a hippie was except from "Mad Magazine " I went to a strict catholic school in New Jersey. You are correct in a pre-fab look controlled by an agent and record company..now that I think about it...I enjoyed your feedback..it's really nice that anybody actually reads what I wrote..Respectfully..Bob
@@andrewz4537 For me that's a tough one because I do have M&P actually credit for the Monterey Pop Festival and for writing San Francisco which was the theme of the Summer of Love. However, what you put is also true, though I do think Denny was probably a hippie, or was at least was a folkie and had come from the folk world. He was part of the Halifax Three with Zal Yansky of the Lovin Spoonful and was in the Mugwamps with Cass. Michelle was an immature eighteen year old who married a twenty five year old struggling musician named John Phillips who was married with a daughter and yeah wanted to hit the big time and saw his chance with this growing counterculture emerging in NY, California and London and would go worldwide by decades end. I think he was also a military school dropout to. But for all their faults, you have to give the group a lot, they did for the hippie movement and the image, though how good or bad that is, seems to still be written. I'm Latino, and I'm just starting to see myself in the history of the 60's. I also found out "fun fact," Latino was actually a counterculture word. The mainstream didn't call us Latinos, they called us "Spanish," or "Spanish American," and introduced Hispanic in 1970. Latino came about from the counterculture's early interactions with the Latino communities in New York and California, who had migrated from Puerto Rico or had immigrated from Mexico, Cuba or Dominican Republic or other Latin American countries which President Johnson opened up immigration to in 1965. They would say often say, "yo soy, Latino Americano, I am Latin American," hippie kids shortened it to Latino and the term started appearing in the counterculture press. There was also Chicano to refer to Mexican American identity and would be the first expression of Latino American identity in the US. Anyone cop or square you see in some movie saying the word "Latino," just know how unrealistic and untrue that is, nor would they have said Chicano either. Spanish would be the nicest thing they would call us or just randomly assume okay this is California, you must be Mexican, this is New York you must be Puerto Rican, flower children were the ones to use the words "Latino," and "Chicano." Please get it right Hollywood.
Quit with the hippy rascism....none of you have a clue...there was a choice made in those days..and not based on Nehru collars and cultural appropriation ( India ) of dress. This band wanted success and money..not contributing to conservation, protection of environment. Get real, man.
Hello from a 70-year old Jersey girl transplanted to near Mammoth Cave. I grew up in a small town 30 miles north of Trenton. My Dad was so conservative. He was very strict about my younger brother’s haircuts……. “There will be no long-haired hippies in this house”
Love this group, The Mamas and The Papas, and this song “Monday Monday” is truly great. Absolutely love yesterday’s music, they had lovely music and beautiful lyrics. God bless the soul of all those artists and musicians that entertained us with excellent music. They are IRREPLACEABLE and UNFORGETTABLE. 🙏👍👏♥️
Cass Elliot...what a beautiful, soulful voice!!! She's up there w/Karen Carpenter, Gladys Knight, Aretha Franklin...if you can't feel her tone, your soul is a hollow cone
This is my favorite Mamas and the Papas segment on the Ed Sullivan show, and it will be great to have the entire performance in one video! Thank you! I love the set with all the bright colors and psychedelia. This was their last appearance on the Sullivan show. Thanks again for posting this for us!
They were FABULOUS, especially MAMA CASS.God rest her sweet young soul. I was 15 years old back then when they were singing these great songs that all became hits.They were just terrific and so were the 60's , wish I could tern back time to those wonderful years.
I found them when I was 10 in '99, love the group since then. Their voices were magnificent but the compositions were warm and soft, the joy for making music was so evident and I consider Cass as the soul of the project, you can watch her passion, she stole the show too many times.
It's great to hear mama and papas has finally been placed into music hall of fame. I wander why it's taken so long.. I have a good feeling they Will be remembered for year's ahead to come especially with this song and all other songs. I love them so much.
Btw..Ed Sullivan should be in the rock and roll hall of fame..maybe he is...this guy and his team were absolutely way ahead of their time bringing rock and roll into our living rooms...and our parents actually let us watch these acts...Ed was brilliant
The contrast of the image of Ed Sullivan with the Flower power image of the Mamas and Papas…is striking. I give him credit for bringing on all of stars going back to the late 50s . The Mamas and Papas songs are timeless and will last for generations to come. If Mama Cass was never born..the decade of the 60s music would have been drastically different..she was responsible for bringing so many people together including CSN.
Wonderful ... i like the Sound and Music of the group, Mama Cass has one of the beautiful voices ever...it is so good to hear and watch this clip in this horrible time we must live in today.THANK YOU so much. Love,Peace&Respect ✌️
My now 82 year old mother, back when i was a child and she was much younger, sat in front of the record playing console at our house playing her albums, and she showed me this album because i already had a mama and papa and couldn't figure out whose parents they were on the album cover...I think this was one of my earliest memories I can still remember...I couldn't have been older than 4 or 5. Weird which things a person can remember but i guess I've been a fan of The Mama's and The Papa's for 55 years!! (I'm a couple months shy of 60).
The colour quality of this video is spectacular. So is the audio. Those were better times in every way than today. I was twelve years old then. I felt I was young again watching this
@@BennyCFD search up Michelle Phillips singing no love today, and you'll see how wrong you are. she never was able to shine in the group, just staying in the background with harmonies, because f her soprano voice.
How I love, love, LOVED THE “MAMAS & THE PAPAS” AND “THE ED SULLIVAN SHOW!” Love this channel/blog and great segments they showcase! It truly is “the best blog/channel….”PERIOD!” Love UTUBE too for bringing us amazing blogs like this! 🎼🎵🎶🎼🎵🎶🎼🎵🎶🎼🎵🎶
They don't make music like this anymore 😢such a loss for today's generation
It's not good music is still made in we can come back in listen to the past .
I'm 26 in I'm here listening to this .
California dreamin is one of my favorite songs . The 60s has some of the best music ever created by humans ever , no one denies that . Good music is still being made , everything changes
They have their own wonderful songs (whether I like them or not.)
👍👍👍
Thats right
Cause they want to destroy emphaty

Owen, Cass' daughter sounds so much like her mother when she sings. Wish we'd hear more from her.
she is one of the most beautiful singers in the 60s ❤️
She was all that you say. She was also a "Wide Load". Clear the way, she is coming through!

I still remember seeing them on this show..Cass had such a wonderful voice.
What a harmony laden group they were No one came close to The Mama's and Pappas how fortunate where we to have then in our golden era.
God bless you, how sweet… Of course, he will see Joe when the time comes
There is no marriage in heaven.☁️☁️☁️
Those were my happiest days of my life. I'm 71 now.
Mine too, and I will be 69 in November. Where in the world did time go? Aging is so strange. But like music, we are all eternal!!
@@rogersargent6453 And we want to be eternal with Jesus in heaven, not in the other place (shudder).
Yes, really happy times we had - you are just 4 years older. hehe
Me too
Mine also, the world was so beautiful then but so different now for our children and grandchildren 😢
Wow loved them
Selten so eine Harmonie von 4 Stimmen gehört. Mit dem Geschrei von heute nicht zu vergleichen
Love the sarcasm from Cass.
This group is in a league of their own
Perfect harmony
Perfect articulation (every word easily understood)
Perfect tone
Everything
❤
too bad this is just the studio recording played and lipsynced live
It would be hard to find talent like this
Their voices just blended with great harmony!
Amazing vocals and music.
Perfect harmony, one of the best vocal groups in the history of pop music.
And here it is for the first time, in all of its glory, the entire historic appearance as shown on the original broadcast. YES!!!

Yup, she was truly special. Take it from someone who knows.
Cass had the best voice of the group an angels voice. God rest her beautiful soul.
I never knew her and yet I miss her so much😭
She looked like such a warm, caring person. I would have loved to have known her. She was so beautiful. I hope she found the Lord before her early death.
@@PapaAlec she died 10 years before I was born and yep, i feel the same.
Without Cass, we would never have heard of The Mamas & The Papas. They are one of my favorite groups, but she made them.
She followed them to Tahiti to get them to let her into the group.
They didn’t know how to design Clothes for larger women back then. If they had she would’ve felt so much better about herself
Without John writing those great songs we wouldn’t have heard of them. Not a fan of John’s life choices but he wrote some great songs to showcase their talents.
THEY WERE NOTHING BEFORE CASS AND WENT BACK TO NOTHING WHEN SHE LEFT!!!!
THATS A BIT HARSH.
A classic era for fab music todays music has no soul love California dreaming always on my playlist and I am 64 years old still love this music.
Really one ofe the best flower power bands
I am 68 years old and this video touched me deeply . These songs and performers I love love love them.
Me too. Will be 69 in November. Thanks to an older brother who introduced their music to me at the age of 13 yrs old.

California dreaming is clearly inspired by gospel music, so beautiful and harmonious.
Not even close! It’s about freezing on the east coast and dreaming about being in California.
I wish i was around in the 1960s I could of sang along. I was around in the 1970s but was too young to remember the early 70s So I'll sing along now
I wish I could travel back in time to see them on stage for real.
Greatest vocal group of all time
i wish i could go back in time and see them perform
AND ID STAY THERE.
And I’ll bring the ham sandwiches!

Yes I agree awesome singers,
California Dreaming was their best! Their harmony excellent! Lyrics super! 💐🍧💐🍧💐
Classic music will last forever
California Dreamin gives me goosebumps!
one of my favorite groups,
I love how you can eat a banana, chew it , and still hit your notes perfectly as the day you recorded it.
Of course, lip syncing here made that banana eating more possible.
i noticed that - like when they start their medley you can hear Denny and those beautiful harmonies while the mic is still between his legs
This was a happy time in my life!
the lip syncing is strong in this one
It was a protest. They despised lip syncing. Reason for the banana
Always Loved this group of real music! And totally love michelle phillips! Natural Beauty!!!
This is my favorite Mamas and the Papas segment on the Ed Sullivan show, and it will be great to have the entire performance in one video! Thank you! I love the set with all the bright colors and psychedelia. This was their last appearance on the Sullivan show. Thanks again for posting this for us!
This was my Dad's favorite song of the mamas and the papas
A bittersweet blast from the far better past. ❤️
Merci ❤

There is nothing more classic than this. Incredible footage. They were all that!!
They brought...the greatest musicians in the world, around❤
The contrast of the image of Ed Sullivan with the Flower power image of the Mamas and Papas…is striking. I give him credit for bringing on all of stars going back to the late 50s . The Mamas and Papas songs are timeless and will last for generations to come. If Mama Cass was never born..the decade of the 60s music would have been drastically different..she was responsible for bringing so many people together including CSN.
Wonderful ... i like the Sound and Music of the group, Mama Cass has one of the beautiful voices ever...it is so good to hear and watch this clip in this horrible time we must live in today.THANK YOU so much. Love,Peace&Respect ✌️
My senior year in H.S. was just starting. What a time to be young and free
My now 82 year old mother, back when i was a child and she was much younger, sat in front of the record playing console at our house playing her albums, and she showed me this album because i already had a mama and papa and couldn't figure out whose parents they were on the album cover...I think this was one of my earliest memories I can still remember...I couldn't have been older than 4 or 5.
Weird which things a person can remember but i guess I've been a fan of The Mama's and The Papa's for 55 years!! (I'm a couple months shy of 60).
Bless your heart ❣️ sweetie 🥰.
@@waskyhenry6306 Back atcha!!🤎
Fascinating, you can actually hear them sing over the plabyck track occasionally, I never noticed that, thats really cool!
Takes me back to when I lived in San Francisco, back when San Francisco was fun.
The colour quality of this video is spectacular. So is the audio. Those were better times in every way than today. I was twelve years old then. I felt I was young again watching this
Michelle was stunning. Rest in peace John, Denny, Cass.
still a lovely person
SHE BASICALLY WENT NOWHERE AFTER THEY BROKE UP,
MAMA CASS ELLIOTT IS THE GOAT FEMALE VOICES.
Rebellious Michelle for the Monday Monday and California Dreamin’ lmao
Yeah but that Banana did not look good
Queen
One of THE best groups of the 60's, beautiful harmony. RIP Denny, Cass and John. I still listen to these wonderful tunes now.
Yes I agree awesome group and songs sung in1966,year I was born
wonderful
The 60s, 70s were the coolest dressed, people, cars and times I think in American history. The definition of everything cool🇺🇸👍
God bless America xx
God they were sooooooo good!
I knee her as mama Cass Elliot and I remembered her singing Baby Am yours. Great voice.
their outfits are everything
I loved this group. They well their music carried me many a time. Hippie what?? lol love that.
We sure don't have this kind of music today........
Music production has improved so much since the 60s, but the songs keep getting worse by the decade.
Such an amazing voice from Nova Scotia CANADA!
Mamma Cass had a sweet strong voice!
She was super gifted 😮 genuinely natural
This video helped me to see these my favourite singers' faces. Before, I thought they should have been more than 10 singers!
I love their songs.
These are fantastic tunes! Magnificent!
Michelle was gloriously beautiful. The epitome of a dreamy "California Girl"
Voice wise she was a hack compared to Cass.............................
@@BennyCFD search up Michelle Phillips singing no love today, and you'll see how wrong you are. she never was able to shine in the group, just staying in the background with harmonies, because f her soprano voice.
A Susan Dey twin.. I guess that was the standard of beauty then, looking like a young child
@@pattyayers Michelle was no child at the time of this filming. She was 23 years old. And a total natural beauty.
I 100 % love this
One of my favorite all-time bands. Michelle Phillips, what a babydoll!!
Viviré eternamente enamorado de mama Cass Eliot, que gran voz y físicamente es una mujer muy hermosa.
Key words im reading.harmony and soul❤😊
I thought I'd seen all the Sullivan shows but this is new to me I just wish they had sung live but it's great to see them anyhow
I LOVE THEM!
How they sounded like a choir instead of 4 people is unbelievable! ❤
lip sync
They were lip syncing ( badly 😁) . The records were double and triple tracked to make them sound like a choir.
Very refreshing hearing them sing. It's been a while since I heard these songs. Their vocals are awesome.
How I love, love, LOVED THE “MAMAS & THE PAPAS” AND “THE ED SULLIVAN SHOW!” Love this channel/blog and great segments they showcase! It truly is “the best blog/channel….”PERIOD!” Love UTUBE too for bringing us amazing blogs like this!
