“Do You Wanna Dance?” (Mamas & Papas) #76 12/14/1968

As we’ve mentioned, the Mamas and the Papas were in serious turmoil by now. The last straw was Mama Cass Elliot’s (kinda) solo billing on “Dream A Little Dream Of Me.” The label went back two years to the group’s first album for this remake of a Bobby Freeman and Beach Boys hit. It was the act’s last single before splitting up, except for one from a contractually obligated LP three years later that also tanked. Still, some of the sweetest harmonies of the 60’s on display here.
