About People Like Us

People Like Us is the fifth and final studio album released by the American folk rock vocal group the Mamas and the Papas. Released in November 1971, the album came to be because the former members of the group were still under contract with Dunhill Records. The group had originally been signed to the label when it was run by their original producer Lou Adler, but by 1971, Dunhill's distributor, ABC Records, had purchased the label and discovered a clause in the group's original contract. According to their contract, the group had to produce one more album, or else be in breach of contract and subject to possible fines up to $1 million. The album is considered a disappointment by fans and critics with some notable exemptions such as “Snowqueen of Texas” and “Lady Genevieve”. Despite its reputation, it sold moderately well. It was produced by John Phillips. Michelle Phillips later wrote in the liner note of a Mamas & Papas CD compilation that the album "sounded like what it was, four people trying to avoid a lawsuit". This mostly had to do with the spark in the group's original content leaving as the group had parted ways.
