COMING INTO LOS ANGELES
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 “City of New Orleans” in 1972 and “Alice’s Restaurant Massacree” in 1967, the third item that Allmusic is remembering is “Coming into Los Angeles”, which Guthrie performed at Woodstock in 1969.
