Title

The album's title was an in-joke among the group, as recording commenced shortly after Cass Elliot announced that she was pregnant with her daughter, Owen. Given the social stigma of unwed mothers at the time, both the pregnancy and the birth had been kept a closely guarded secret from the public and press, and the LP's name was meant to imply that Elliot and the others had "delivered" a newborn creation.

Release

The album debuted on Billboard's Top LPs chart on March 18, 1967[1] and reached its peak position of #2 just three weeks later.[2] It spent a total of 55 weeks on the Top LPs chart.[3]

Three of the album's singles reached the Billboard Hot 100 chart: "Look Through My Window" peaked at #24 (November 26, 1966),[4] "Dedicated to the One I Love" at #2 (March 25, 1967)[5] and "Creeque Alley" at #5 (June 3, 1967).[6]

The album was first issued on CD in 1988 (MCAD-31044) and is included in its entirety on All the Leaves Are Brown, a retrospective compilation of the band's first four albums and various singles.[7][8]
