Duffy’s good vibrations and our imaginations
Can’t go on indefinitely…
Sorry. Meant to change that to ‘Denny’.
Psst! Johnny, no need for a second post; you can edit your posts now.
Shows me for not paying attention.
Of the four Mamas and Papas, only one is still alive: Michelle Phillips.
John Phillips died in 2001.
Cass Elliot died in 1974.
It makes me feel old. I remember when I first heard “Monday, Monday” on the radio and fell in love with the group.
Ba-da, ba-dada, da…
Michelle Phillips gets the tonteen!
Michelle Phillips has to have made a deal with the Devil. She gets better looking every year, and she was gorgeous to begin with.
We’ll miss you, Denny. Tell Cass hello from all of us.
All the leaves are brown, and the sky is gray.
I’ve been for a walk, on this winter day.
Denny’s safe and warm, or at least that’s what they say
California Dreamin’ came to an end today.
Rest well, Denny.
Damn Poly, that one made me mist up. Well said.
Thank you M&P’s for everything.
Yes, the Mama’s and the Papa’s were quite a group. A great documentary about the foursome is called “Mamas and the Papas: Straight Shooters”
If nothing else I learned that it was Denny Doherty and not John Phillips singing “the lead” in “Monday, Monday”. Before I found that out, I always thought Denny was the Zeppo Marx of the group. Wow was I wrong. Denny was an important part of that group’s distinctive sound.
Rest well Denny.
Fabulous vocal artist. He was a pure singer, that’s what he did, and he did it superbly.
Folding hands. Bowing head. Rest in peace.
I’m sad
It’s a sad time.
I was fortunate to see Denny perform, along with John Phillips and his daughter Mackenzie, and Spanky McFarlane, in a touring version of the M&P, back in the late '80s.
We’ll miss you, Denny.
