Of all the things - the complete ABC/Dunhill masters

"After the gradual dissolution of his group the Mamas & the Papas was complete, Denny Doherty found himself at musical loose ends. As the other members of the group were setting off on solo pursuits, their label, ABC/Dunhill, contacted Doherty and reminded him of a contractual obligation for a solo album. In response, Doherty gathered together a small group of friends and studio cats and set to work on an album. The gentle and loose country-rock-inspired Watcha' Gonna Do? was the result. That 1971 album makes up the bulk of Real Gone's 2018 collection Of All the Things: The Complete ABC/Dunhill Masters. While it's not exactly a lost classic, the laid-back pastoral warmth that flows out of the grooves like a Laurel Canyon sunset and the occasional pedal steel-infused gem make it well worth hearing".
