Best of The Mamas & The Papas

The Mamas & the Papas (credited as The Mama’s and the Papa’s on the debut album cover) were an American vocal group of the 1960s. The group recorded and performed from 1965 to 1968 with a short reunion in 1971, releasing five albums and 11 Top 40 hit singles. They have sold nearly 100 million records worldwide.
