All Music Guide Review

A collection like this one can't help but underscore what an amazing group the Mamas & the Papas were in their prime, and songs like "Monday, Monday," the immortal "California Dreamin'," "Go Where You Wanna Go," the gorgeous "I Saw Her Again," and the autobiographical "Creeque Alley" were simply great singles full of wonderful (and at times achingly spooky) vocals and harmonies and superb arrangements. If there's a problem with this set, it's that at only ten tracks it's way too brief to do anything but scratch the surface of the Mamas & the Papas' story. ~ Steve Leggett, All Music Guide
