Hit: 5 Stars
Scott's real name was Phil Blondheim, but he became Scott McKenzie when he and John Phillips formed a group called The Smoothies. This group only lasted a few months. They disbanded, but Scott and John formed a trio called The Journeymen. They lasted long enough to release three albums and a couple singles before they also disbanded. While John formed the New Journeymen and (later) the Mamas and Papas, Scott went solo, but made no real impact until the Mamas and Papas became successful. At that point, John helped his old friend out. They discussed various ideas and it seems that Scott gave John the basic idea for the song that eventually made Scott famous, although John wrote the song entirely on his own.Scott is not quite a one-hit wonder, as Like an old time movie (the follow-up to San Francisco) made the top thirty in America and just charted in Britain, but Scott couldn't handle the fame. He recorded an album in 1967 (including the hits, plus a mix of covers and original songs) and another in 1970 (for which Scott wrote all the songs) but neither made much impact.
This compilation begins with one track by the Smoothies and two by the Journeymen. The remainder of the tracks include the best of his solo music, although it must be said that nothing else is anything like San Francisco. The other songs are typical sixties folk music. It makes for interesting listening if (like me) you enjoy sixties folk, but if all you want is San Francisco, buy that song on a various artists compilation.
