Arlo Guthrie

. Albums:. In 1991, Guthrie bought the church that had served as Alice Brock's former home, which had been made famous by the song, and converted it to the Guthrie Center (http://www.guthriecenter.org), an interfaith meeting place that serves people of all religions. His biggest hit was "Somewhere Out There," a duet with Linda Ronstadt. He collaborated with poet Adrian Mitchell to tell the story of Chilean folk singer and activist Víctor Jara in song. He also worked with other great musical artists such as Ray Charles, Michael McDonald, Patti Austin, Natalie Cole, and Kenny Rogers. Like his father, Woody Guthrie, Arlo often sings songs of protest against social injustice. Ingram's debut album, "It’s Your Night", appeared in 1983, including the ballad "There’s No Easy Way".

He also had a minor hit with his song "Coming into Los Angeles". Later, in 1980, he provided the vocals to "Just Once" and "One Hundred Ways" on Quincy Jones's album "The Dude". Guthrie also made famous Steve Goodman's song "City of New Orleans", a paean to long-distance rail travel. As a self-taught musician who plays piano, guitar, bass, drums and synthesizer, Ingram began his career in the 70's as part of the band Revelation Funk. The song also provided the scenario (and much of the soundtrack) for the film Alice's Restaurant (movie). He is also a producer and songwriter. (compare with the song "Haddocks' Eyes" in Through the Looking-Glass). James Ingram (*February 16, 1956, Akron, Ohio, USA) is an American soul musician, famous for his vocal performance.

To quote one of the song's Carrollian twists:. Forever More: The Best of James Ingram (1999). There are many parodies of the song as well. Always You (1993). Alice's Restaurant was revised and updated some years later to protest Reagan era policies, but the second version has not been released on a commercial recording. The Power of Great Music (greatest hits disc; 1991). The first recording of the song was done at the exact same time as the Apollo 11 Moon Landing. It's Real (1989).

The lyrics to the song can be found at this location on Guthrie's web site: [1] (http://www.arlo.net/lyrics/alices.shtml) Although it has some fantastical elements, it is based on a true story. Never Felt So Good (1986). "Alice's Restaurant" is regularly played on some radio stations every Thanksgiving. It's Your Night (1983). The song describes how Guthrie was hauled into court for littering some of Alice's garbage after discovering that the dump was closed for Thanksgiving, and because of the resulting criminal record he was eventually rejected as unfit for military service when he was called up for the draft. The characters in the story, including both Alice and "officer Obie", who arrested him, became famous in their own right as a result of the song. Alice, in this case, was restaurant owner Alice Brock, who lived in a former church in Great Barrington, Massachusetts.

The song, a bitingly satirical protest against the Vietnam War draft, recounts a true Thanksgiving adventure that began at Alice's Restaurant, where "you can get anything you want (excepting Alice)".
