Mama's Pride is the debut studio album by American rock band Mama's Pride. It was released on January 1, 1975, by Atco Records, a division of Atlantic Records at the time, now a division of Warner Brothers.[1] The album was produced by Arif Mardin. Although a commercial failure, the album spawned the band's signature song "Blue Mist", which gained popularity amongst the locals and radio stations of St. Louis, the band's home city.[2][3][4]
