[78-L] San Francisco (was Kookaburra)

[Cary Ginell]

They wouldn't pay The Mamas & the Papas, they would pay John Phillips, who wrote the song for Scott McKenzie. The Mamas & the Papas never 
recorded "San Francisco."

As it has in many jazz records.   I, too, would like to know how the  
labels dealt with this.  Did Led Zeppelin pay the Mamas and the Papas  
for "Are You Going to S. F.?"   That was clearly a cover, medleyed  
into their set.  But the flute part  in, "Down Under," was less than  
a sample (stem) within a mix.
