• Fourth studio album by the American folk rock vocal group the Mamas and the Papas, released in 1968.

• Unique gatefold cover art package features two photos of members' faces (by Tad Diltz) with different expressions. The front cover contained two flaps which, when folded, created interchangeable funny faces mixed from the heads of John, Cass, Michelle and Denny.

• Grading based on visual inspection and close listening, not by pro rating company. Very good sound and overall condition. See photos. Note minor fading on album sleeve - relatively slight and not unexpected for an album in storage over 55 years.
