My friend JD just took off for L.A. yesterday. Before he left he posted, "California Dreaming" by the Mamas and the Papas, on his blog. Even though I'm not going to L.A., and it's not the dead of winter, I couldn't resist also posting this fantastic video. What a gem of an American song.... and so 60's. Mama Cass rocked...

They say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, so I'll overlook your copycat-ism. Yes, a lovely song...I listened to it several times in the car while I was out there. The flute solo has always been my favorite part, kind of haunting. Two other bands (at least) covered the song, the Carpenters (surprisingly good) and America (not bad). But the original is the best.
