The first of 20 Top 40 appearances for the 5th Dimension was a cover of the first record by the Mamas and the Papas. The difference was that the 5th Dimension got into the Top 20, whereas the Mamas and the Papas version did absolutely nothing; the next release, "California Dreamin' " would be their breakthrough single. Video is from a "Bandstand"-type syndicated show called "Shebang!" hosted by Casey Kasem and (I believe) taped at KTLA in Los Angeles. Love the 60's fashion sense!
