Dream a Little Dream is the debut solo album by American singer Cass Elliot immediately following the breakup of The Mamas & the Papas, though she was still billed as "Mama Cass" for this release. Capitalizing on the success of her first solo song as the album's title, it was released in October 1968 by Dunhill Records.
When Elliot presented the album to the studio of Dunhill, they were less than pleased, they had expected her to produce material similar to her work with the Mamas & the Papas. They felt the album she had made was only marketable to a hippie audience, and thus went about marketing it toward the underground media. Elliot was displeased with this; she felt that the album really showed who she was and where she was at that moment, and that, had the album been promoted properly, it would have been a hit. Dunhill was also keen on keeping the "Mama Cass" name alive, hence the decision to bill her under that name, despite Elliot wanting to separate herself from that image as much as possible and to be known as Cass Elliot.
Despite the clashes between Elliot and Dunhill, the album sold over 150,000 copies and was a moderate success, landing at No.87 on the Billboard album chart.
