Cass Elliot - The Complete Solo Collection 1968-71 - CD1 et CD2

Mama Cass... la baraque!
A l'exception d'une poignée de chansons aux accents country (au mitan du premier disque, ici), presque tout est bon dans l'opulente carrière solo de la big Mama. Un poids lourd de la pop californienne (encore méconnu, malgré son envergure). Présence massive; mélodies vaporeuses et serpentines. Toute la dialectique de la pesanteur et de la grâce.
"The room nobody lives in" me donne envie de pleurer, parfois.
