Mama Cass shines in this beautiful performance

There is no denying Mama Cass‘ extraordinary talents.

For me, she stands with an incredibly talented group of women who dominated the 60’s and 70’s. Janis Joplin, Michelle Phillips, Grace Slick, and Stevie Nicks. 

These were the icons who changed the face of ‘women in rock’.

Though she often shared the stage with fellow bandmate Michelle Phillips, Cass was a powerhouse who would kindly give and take in the display of vocals. She knew when to belt it out, and when to soften to let Phillips shine.

This beautiful song was written in 1931 in depression-era America by Fabian Andre, Wilbur Schwandt and lyrics by Gus Kahn.

After Andre’s death Mama Cass decided to record it with the Mama’s and The Papa’s, and it quickly became an iconic song for Miss Cass, often singing it as her signature song during her solo career.

+Dream a Little Dream of Me+

Stars shining bright above you
Night breezes seem to whisper “I love you”
Birds singing in the sycamore trees
Dream a little dream of me
Say nighty-night and kiss me
Just hold me tight and tell me you’ll miss me
While I’m alone and blue as can be
Dream a little dream of me

Stars fading but I linger on dear
Still craving your kiss
I’m longing to linger till dawn dear
Just saying this

Sweet dreams till sunbeams find you
Sweet dreams that leave all worries behind you
But in your dreams whatever they be
Dream a little dream of me

Stars fading but I linger on dear
Still craving your kiss
I’m longing to linger till dawn dear
Just saying this

Sweet dreams, till sunbeams find you
Gotta keep dreaming leave all worries behind you
But in your dreams whatever they be
You gotta make me a promise, promise to me
You’ll dream, dream a little of me
