Cass Elliot Cass Elliot (Vinyl - RCA, 1972) **
Genre: American pop/rock
Places I remember: Chaldon Records and Books (Caterham-on-the-hill)
Fab, and all the other pimply hyperboles: Disney Girls
Gear costume: I'll Be There
Active compensatory factors: Obviously, Cass Elliot has become a tragic figure, dying young at 32 from a heart attack, but her vocals can instantly recall the sixties when she was Mama Cass.
Here, she's in full on glamour mode, singing standards with lush backings - not really my thing.
What made me take a punt on the album was seeing the immortal Disney Girls on the track listing. In this case she's also got Bruce Johnston and Carl Wilson appearing with her. Magic ensues!
Where do they all belong? Back to those Mamas and Papas' greatest hits packages.
Music is the wine that fills the cup of silence - ROBERT FRIPP. Information is not knowledge; knowledge is not wisdom; wisdom is not truth; truth is not beauty; beauty is not love; love is not music; MUSIC IS THE BEST - FRANK ZAPPA. I think we're a little happier when we have a little music in our lives - STEVE JOBS. Music in the soul can be heard by the universe - LAO TZU. Rock and Roll is fire, man. FIRE. - DAVID BRIGGS. Music grips you, gets into your soul - GEORGE MARTIN
