180 Gram Stereo Vinyl Edition!
In their brief but eventful reign as one of Americas hippest and most popular recording acts, the Mamas and the Papas Denny Doherty, Cass Elliot, Michelle Phillips and main songwriter/sonic architect John Phillips created a uniquely captivating brand of smart, harmony-laden pop that was consistently inventive and innovative, yet effortlessly commercial.
Although their hit-making heyday lasted less than three years, these trendsetting California dreamers left a long-lasting mark on popular music, releasing a series of hit singles and classic albums that remain deeply ingrained in the pop-culture consciousness four and a half decades later. Sundazed Music brings the Mamas and the Papas much-requested, long-out-of-print third album back to the marketplace on 180g Vinyl LP that preserves its timeless brilliance for the ages.
These beloved 60s classics have been lovingly restored by Sundazed Music to their original glory, on high-quality vinyl LP. This definitive editions faithfully reproduces the albums iconic original cover art, while careful mastering from the original reels guarantees that theyve never sounded better than they do here.
Released in early 1967, the groups third longplayer Deliver is one of the Mamas and the Papas essential works, and an exquisitely engaging expression of the groups singular pop artistry. The album produced a pair of Top Five singles in the amusingly autobiographical Creeque Alley and the quartets transcendent reading of Dedicated to the One I Love, previously recorded by the 5 Royales and the Shirelles. Other highlights include the much-loved originals Look Through My Window and Boys & Girls Together, and re-workings of the Smokey Robinson-penned Temptations classic My Girl and the Beatles/Isley Brothers hit "Twist and Shout."
