Hi Midnight Voyager,
Sorry for the confusion. Yes, thr liner notes in the new release of PlU do contradict that no one wanted to record. According to the liner notes, around 1970, early, 1971, Michelle Phillips was talking to Cass Elliot, saying how it great it would be to get the group together again. Everyone was working moving forward with projects and she felt she was standing still. In the middle of that, that seems to be when the record company sued them. Hope this clears up the confusion.
Take care,
Nicole
