Elliot was widely considered the most charismatic member of the Mamas & the Papas due to her sense of humor and optimism, in part because of her large size and weight. She was one of the most beloved members of the group and, because of her distinctive voice, was a large factor in their success. She is best remembered for her vocals on the group's Billboard hits California Dreamin, Monday, Monday, and Words of Love, as well as her first hit as an independent act, Dream a Little Dream.
