Dream A Little Dream Features the most comprehensive cross-label career overview of this great vocalist & larger than life musical personality. Compiled in consultation with her family to ensure that the choice of music studies the key areas of her musical career spanning the golden years of the Mamas and Papas through to her own stunning solo output including tracks previously unreleased such as 'Does Anybody Love You', If You're Gonna Break Another Heart', East of The Sun & West of The Moon' & Cass Radio Jingles. MCA. 2005.
She wasn't the cute one, but, damn, she certainly could sing her ample rear off. Featuring only one track with the Mamas & the Papas--the hit "Words of Love"--this unfortunately titled collection spotlights Elliot's solo career, from the ancient Tin Pan Alley gem "Dream a Little Dream of Me" through Top 40 treats like "New World Comin'" and "Make Your Own Kind of Music" (recently covered by Paul Westerberg). Actually, only 5 of the 12 tracks can be considered big ones--but that voice was simply perfect pop and pure ear candy. Pity she left when she did. --Bill Holdship
