The haunting magic comes at 5:19 when Mama Cass only sings "dreamin" while Mama Michelle sings "California Dreamin" Then Cass sings an extended "On such a winters day" while Michelle sings "California Dreamin" at the same time. It is mind bending yet it is so haunting and flows ethereally.

Michelle Phillips (The slender younger blonde) was married or dating at the time John Phillips (the leader and guitar player). One night John woke her up and wanted to work on a song. He couldn't wait until the morning. That song is California Dreamin' and Michelle got co-writing credit. She says it was the best sleep she has ever missed. The royalties are still flowing in today.

I liked them and they were big when I was in high school. Chynna Phillips is the daughter of Michelle (the blonde) and John (the taller of the two guys and he passed away March 18, 2001). Carnie and Wendy Wilson are the daughters of Brian Wilson of Beach Boys. Denny Doherty (shorter of the two guys) passed January 19, 2007, Mama Cass (Cass Elliot) passed July 29, 1974. Michelle is 77.

When this song was released, it blew people away because nobody had heard the harmonies arranged quite this way in a pop song before. The real vocal powerhouses of course were Denny Doherty (the lead singer in this song) and Cass Elliott, also known as Mama Cass. She also had a solo career before she passed away in, I think, 1974. Her voice, when she let go, was *amazing*. Other songs worth listening to by them include "Monday Monday", "I Saw Her Again" and "Creeque Alley" which is more or less the story of how the band got together.

Here's some trivia. The blonde and the guy with the guitar (Michelle & John Phillips) are the parents of Chyna Phillips, whose band Wilson Phillips is the one that plays in the wedding scene on the movie "Bridesmaids." John was also the father of 2 actresses, McKenzie Phillips and Bijou Phillips. Both were in shows & movies from long before you were born. Haha. Just gives perspective on how old this is.

For another all time classic song with great harmonies check out The Beach Boys' "Good Vibrations". And, as others have already noted, the flute is featured prominently in most of Jethro Tull's music. (On a side note, "Jethro Tull" is the name of the band, but is not the name of anybody in the band.)

I introduced my kids to the Mama's and Papa's when they were newborns singing Dream a Little Dream of Me, a solo by Cass, when I rocked them to sleep. Great memories whenever I hear them singing. They're all passed now, except Michelle. She's the blonde. At least I think she's still around.

Mama Cass sadly died at the young age of 32 in 1974 not long after completing a 2 week engagement at the London Palladium😢, she died in her sleep from heart failure while still in London, the only one still alive today is the other female singer Michelle Phillips who I believe is around 79 yrs old now, her ex husband and fellow band member John Phillips died from heart failure in 2001 and the lead singer Denny Doherty passed away at the age of 66 in 2007, such a great loss of talented musicians RIP.

It's and alto (lower tone, larger) flute. The only one still alive is Michelle Phillips. Cass Elliot (Moma Cass) died at 32 years old in 1974 of a heart attack. Denny Doherty died at 66 in 2007 (he is the shorter male vocalist). John Phillips died at 65 in 2001. As the taller vocalist John also played guitar and was the mastermind of the group; he put the group together and as Moma Cass put it "wrote all of their songs and most of the songs they stole". In my opinion Mama Cass and Denny Doherty were the most talented in the group (as vocalists), they could sing anything!

It's so hard to explain to young people how iconic these songs are. young folks are really picking up on the talent, no special effects or computers, real instruments no auto tune and recognizing that this is pure talent and writing, how different it is from today. I believe this is a bigger flute you are hearing that plays lower than a regular flute, called an alto flute. Only one member is alive today, Michelle Phillips, the blond. when computers infiltrated over the decades, many musicians lost their jobs as studio musicians...a really f-ing SAD thing.

The ladies are Michelle Phillips and Cass Eliot (cast is the larger lady). The guys are John Phillips (the taller guy and Michelle's husband) and Denny Doherty. Cass and Denny are the stronger singers. Cass had a solo career after the Mama's and Papa's split. The band split after it was found that Michelle was having an affair with Denney. This was 1966, the year I graduated high school and the year before the Summer of Love.
