Michelle Phillips of The Mamas & The Papas speaks about her life and time in the group. From their inception, hits, and the tangled web of their demise, she unearths the soul behind ‘California Dreamin’, ‘Creeque Alley’, and ‘Monday, Monday’. The interview takes us back to the 1960s, where the music soared, tensions simmered, and legacies were etched into vinyl. Phillips’ words resonate with the turbulent rhythm of a rock ‘n’ roll saga.
