In honour of Mama Cass Elliot, whose 70th birthday it would have been this week, and also just because the sun is shining and looks set to remain so into the weekend, here is the big Mama herself.
One of my favourite summer songs, Dream a Little Dream of Me was originally written and recorded as a dance band number back in 1931, but it is this version we love the most. Who can forget the beautiful closing moments of the film Beautiful Thing, as the boys slow-dance to this tune across the concrete of their grim estate? Bliss...
