This is an attempt to right a rock wrong. One of the most famous musical myths is simply not true.
The daughter of Mama Cass Elliot from folk vocal group Mamas and the Papas, Owen Elliot-Kugell, has a clear message to share about her mother’s cause of death: “There was a ham sandwich, but she didn’t eat it and she didn’t choke on it. So enough with the jokes.”
And there have been a lot of jokes, for almost half a century, including by Mike Myers as Austin Powers.
Who made them dress like that?
