5.0 out of 5 stars Masterpiece!, June 15, 2001
By 
This review is from: John the Wolf King of La (Audio CD)
I am glad this is in print again, I found it on CD sometime ago, and also owned the LP when it first came out. Did everyone forget this was called a "Masterpiece" by Rolling Stone when it was first released? Anyway, by that review I purchased it, and it has remained in my collection ever since! It is very unlike the Mama's and Papa's. But I cannot think of another piece of work that sounds like it!! And Mississippi, which received some play should have been a huge hit. With John's recent passing it makes me wonder what other music he held in his heart that we did not get to hear. I was always looking for the follow up. He was extremely talented and will be missed. I hope someone young rediscovers this classic!

5.0 out of 5 stars Better late than never, May 24, 2001
By 
"paulkristi" (Mount Prospect, Illinois United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: John the Wolf King of La (Audio CD)
I wore out my Grundig(Hi-Fi)playing this album. I had no idea this album ever existed til about 10 years ago when I learned about it on The Mamas and The Papas documentary "Straight Shooter." I bought the album at age 14 in 1992 at a record store for .... Hell, I have to be the youngest Mamas and The Papas fan ever and that was the first time i had ever seen that album so [the price] was worth it to me.(I also own Denny Dohertys' rare solo album "Whatcha Gonna Do") The songs on this album are classic. As said before Very mellow, no, not carpenters or Tom Jones mellow, but more of a Donovan or Bob Lind mellow. Excellent song writting and vocals by Papa John (God bless him)The only thing that would of made this C.D. better would be if Sundazed had releaed it instead of some off the wall French label. Sundazed would of Interviewed Denny Doherty and Michelle Phillips on their thoughts of the album and what Johns life was like at that time, also would of had unused photos from the album covers photo sessions. Otherwise perfect. If your a Journeymen, New Journeymen, Mamas and the Papas, or just folk music fan buy this CLASSIC C.D.

5.0 out of 5 stars Save your money, February 12, 2006
This review is from: John the Wolf King of La (Audio CD)
After doing a little research online, I found out that there are plans to re-release this album some time in 2006. I'm going to save my money until that time.
