For what its worth, in a Mamas & Papas video biography some years
back they talked about a "ghost voice" they heard when they
all sang together (Denny said they had a name for the voice, but
I forget: Larry?). And I recall reading about the Hollies saying
something similaqr, and they all sang into a single mic (at least in
the early days).

You probably don't get that with separate vocal tracks.

Including what is often the most sensible and effective at getting good
vocal _blends_: using a single or a pair of mics to track the singers en
masse.

Harvey (as in the rabbit). I think they were referring to what happens when
close harmonies produce over and undertones. That's a performance thing. Does
anyone know what they really did in the studio?
