The Mugwumps

An early on folk-rock band of kinds, the Mugwumps produced some recordings within the mid-’60s, however the short-lived NY clothing are principally remembered for what their associates did once they split. Cass Elliot and Denny Doherty would become one-half from the Mamas as well as the Papas; Zal Yanovsky would sign up for the Lovin’ Spoonful; and Jim Hendricks was the unusual man out, not really achieving any significant subsequent popularity. Their periods — released on obscure posthumous albums which were released to capitalize in the music artists’ following notoriety — present a tentative action with branches both in folk and direct pop. Seeds of the future folk-rock actions can be noticed within the male-female harmonic mixes especially, although material is basically unimpressive, as well as the arrangements as well pop-based to keep very much similarity to either the Mamas & the Papas or the Lovin’ Spoonful.
