- The Truth About John Phillips (1935 - 2001) "California Dreamin" Mamas and Papas
John Phillips can easily be called one of the best pop songwriters of the later 20th century. He honed his songwriting and arranging skills with singing groups that gained a modicum of success. But his crowning musical achievement was the work he did with his '60s group the Mamas and the Papas. Their popularity helped to stem the tide of the "British Invasion" of the 1960s, and bring attention back to American popular music. After a stunningly successful three-year run, the band collapsed under the weight of personal tensions, and seemingly so did Phillips.
His later challenges involved battling years of substance addiction and recovering his health and creativity. John Edmund Andrew Phillips was born on August 30, 1935 on Parris Island, SC. He was the son of a career military man, and a homemaker. Phillips' upbringing was troubling and often lonely. Phillips formed several bands while in high school, in Alexandria, VA, and again, after he returned home from an abortive try at college life. He had a minor hit, "Softly," in the late '50s with his group, the Smoothies.

There is absolutely no doubt that he is one of the greatest songwriters of the generation. But to say that he was cruel to Cass Elliot is an understatement. Everything from blaming her for the crimes of Manson, to never letting her forget about her weight and how he constantly threatened her that he was going to kick her out because she was bad for their image.
Both of his daughters have “daddy” tattooed on their rear ends. The man was an actual monster. Neither one ever denied it either. Because it is a sickening fact.
True. Sickening indeed.
Why would they do that?
John Phillips was one of the most talented writers of the 20th century. I am an African-American musician who was a teenager during the Mama and Papas run. I miss Mr. Phillips genius and wish I had experienced playing music with him (Bass Player) he was one of the greats who embraced us with his talent. I am thankful to his contribution in the 1960s.
RIP John Phillips
He was a horrible human.
Fav John Phillip's song ... MMMM ... No Salt On Her Tail ... Rooms ... April Anne! (I could go on!!)
RIP Mama Cass
I just LOVE “California Dreamin”😍😍🔥🔥
Timeless track
It was such an iconic time - so my fav has to be "California dreamin"... Thanks for a great video. I am grateful for the chance to know more about these loved musicians!
Mine too! California Dreamin' is a definite favourite. RIP John Phillips
"Weird scenes inside the canyon" by David McGowan is an excellant book. I'd recommend it to anyone who has an intrest Californian 60s music. Good stuff.
Yes, great read!
I just finished it. I'm going down the rabbit hole now.
8. The documentary is very well done, with excellent production quality and a compelling narrative that keeps viewers engaged from beginning to end.

6. I appreciate how the video addresses some of the challenges and controversies that Phillips faced throughout his life, giving a more balanced perspective on his legacy.

John was also a member of the Journeymen, if I'm not mistaken, but his absolute apex was California Dreamin', a nearly-perfect record.
I agree with you Robert. California Dreamin' is an incredible song... RIP John Phillips
9. I feel like I have a much greater appreciation for John Phillips and his contributions to music after watching this video.
Much appreciated Azra. RIP John Phillips
Yeah but when someone rapes their own child it puts you off listening to them.
4. The video does a great job of capturing the spirit of the 60s and the counterculture movement that Phillips and The Mamas and The Papas were a part of.
Thank you. RIP John Phillips
10. This documentary is a must-watch for any fan of The Mamas and The Papas or anyone interested in the history of rock and roll.

3. The archival footage and interviews with friends and family give a personal touch to the documentary and make it even more engaging.
RIP John Phillips
Miss Mr. John Phillips musical mind!
RIP John Phillips
I can understand why Cass had a crush on Denny D I felt bad for Cass with her weight struggle. My beloved mother had a serious weight problem most of her life
RIP Mama Cass
John Phillips makes R. Kelly and P. Diddy look like Saints
You make a good point. What he did was pure evil 😈
@@HistoryandNostalgiaChannel that aint the emoji you wanna use chief.
I'm shocked there are so many people in the comments praising him. Are people unaware of his relationship with his own daughter?
Sorry but this guy was an absolute horror! But one of my favorite musicians ever!! Pity🥹
Agree. Disgusting human being.
Your comment reminds me of a description of another musical genius in an obituary.
What shone from him was much more beautiful than what it shone through.
Did John forgive Denny for sleeping with his wife?
Did John's daughter forgive him for raping her?
