'''The Mamas and the Papas''' was a - no, ''the'' - 1960s folk-pop band from Southern California. What made them stand out at first was that, in an age of girl groups and boy bands, they had a mixed-gender lineup: Cass Elliot, Michelle Phillips, John Phillips, and Denny Doherty, backed by session musicians. Then people heard their music, and they didn't need a gimmick to stand out.
