Fabulous Find: Alice’s Restaurant

Hi gang!  Time for a Thanksgiving Fabulous Find and what better than my own Thanksgiving tradition, the playing of Alice’s Restaurant by Arlo Guthrie.  Rather than writing a bunch about the song, set at Thanksgiving, I’m going to share it right here.  And yes, I really do get up on Thanksgiving morning and play this song, generally multiple times.  So sit back and enjoy this Turner tradition and I will also say that the tradition continues, as my eldest son also carries on the tradition and I know he’ll be playing it at his house, as well.

Here is the record album cover, featuring the original 1967 recording:

Alice’s Restaurant 1967

So join us in the tradition.  Without further ado, here’s Arlo Guthrie, from 1967, singing Alice’s Restaurant fro YouTube:

Thanks for joining me this week and I’ll be back again next week with a new RETRO REVIEW.

be seeing you …
