Cass Elliott was a huge fan of Rodgers and Hart, and the Mamas and the Papas did a number of songs from their songbook. The one that is the most striking is My Heart Stood Still. They turned it into an anthem. Michelle thought the group never topped it. Lou Adlers production is superb.
The Mamas and the Papas: My Heart Stood Still
