144. MICHELLE PHILLIPS OF THE MAMAS & THE PAPAS: THE INTERVIEW OF A LIFETIME (PART 4) (Discograffiti, the music obsessives’ podcast)

(To win a personalized 8x10 Michelle Phillips autograph, keep reading.)

Simply put, this is the best interview I’ve done to date. It helps that band biographer Richard Campbell (@richcbart) and I were faced with a woman who was ready to come clean, to be so vulnerable, so funny….and SO RAW.

During Part 4 of this without-precedent 16-hour interview, the legendary singer and actress from The Mamas & The Papas tells it exactly like it is, in between rating everything the band’s ever released.

In Part 4, Michelle reveals:

• A blow-by-blow of how she wound up falling in love with Mamas & Papas producer Lou Adler while she was pregnant with Chynna;
• The true story behind how she brought “Dream A Little Dream” to the band;
• And her contemptuous dismissal of their 4th album “The Papas & The Mamas,” recorded while the band fell apart.
