ALICE’S RESTAURANT
Alice’s Restaurant is the debut album by Arlo Guthrie released in September 1967 by Warner Bros. Records. It features one of his most famous songs, “Alice’s Restaurant Massacree”. (More from Wikipedia)
The article by Allmusic (by William Ruhlmann) on Arlo Guthrie opens with: “Is it possible to be a one-hit wonder three times?” The whole idea of course is nonsense. Besides the three items that Allmusic is remembering, there is also his novelty “Motorcycle Song” (from the Alice’s Restaurant album), which I saw Arlo perform on The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson I believe on two occasions.
