Well yea. It takes most of the year to listen to it.

Everytime I see bags of trash along the road this song sticks in my mind.

A victim of blind justice...

Poor officer Obie.

It's a Philadelphia WMMR 93.3 FM Thanksgiving tradition with one of the greatest radio DJ's of all time Pierre Robert and his dog Lucy...

Freshman year of highschool I caught the bug and was hooked.

I knew Arlo back in the 60's. He always sang it, 'You can get anything you want, including Alice, at Alice's restaurant.' Now there is a happy Thanksgiving.

Except for Alice...

You can get anything you want, at Alice's Restaurant
Excepting Alice
You can get anything you want, at Alice's Restaurant
Walk right in it's around the back
Just a half a mile from the railroad track
You can get anything you want, at Alice's Restaurant

Honest to god I thought turkeys could fly...

Oh the humanity...

Barz,

Can't see you as a mother stabber or father raper...

But if you would allow it I would sit with you on the group W bench...

Good to see you my friend.

Always a classic here at the House of Fun.

For some odd reason after my annual listen to Arlo I had the desire to play meatloafs bat out of hell and some Ziggy stardust - followed by low spark of high heeled boys and some blue oyster cult...

Bit of an odd mix but it seemed apropos for who knows why...

No carn evil 22 minute drum solo please.

I'll never forget,

"...the 8 X 10 glossy prints with the circles and arrows on the front and the writing on the back explaining what each one waz."

"They put me on the bench with the mother rapers...and the father rapers!

Every year on Thanksgiving. Listened to it yesterday before lunch. Never knew of it being a tradition until an old hippie I roomed with in college introduced me to it. Have kept the tradition since and now my wife expects it too.

In the 2010 Census I worked with a guy named Guthrie. He said that every now and then people would call trying to get in touch with Arlo.

Darn, forgot all about that this year. Thanks for posting. :oops:

That is the expurgated version. The truth is far from that. to mix Arlo and Dylan.
