Thanks so much for taking the time to have a listen! The Mamas and Papas are a masive influence for Love Triangle, as is the message from the album titled 'Peace, Love and Happiness'!
LT get a great reception when playing live, from a really wide age range. Younger kids may not know of the greats from the late 60s yet, so it can't be too much of a bad thing if LT turns them towards those sounds too!
Great idea about the vinyl - lets hope the album can come out soon!

Nicely done and well performed. Some good solid song-writing and a good sound.
But...
The nett result is I'm inclined to go and listen to some Mamas and Papas.
Very well done but I'm afraid my mind is diverted to another band and I've quite forgotten the lot I'm listening to.
For those who aren't old gits it could be very appealing in it's own right.

Be Right On is a little too close to a certain Mamas and Papas song, even having the same intro.
Smiley Karma - love it, although there are touches of 'My Sweet Lord' in there.
How to Live on Love reminds me of 'California Dreaming' - but also has sufficient originality to live it's own life.
I love the sound. Very late 1960s influences which, for me, can never be a bad thing. If we dismissed everyone who sounded like someone else, there'd be hardly any new bands out there. You ackowledge the Mamas and Papas as a major influence, and your sound does make it fairly obvious, but I think that over time you'll develope your own identity while, hopefully, mainaining that 'summer of love' feel.
I think you're cool. I'd happily buy your album ( any chance of a vinyl version? ).
