  1. "Last to leave" is my favorite Arlo song. I'm surprised to see it here- it never really got very popular.

  2. Thanks for the Arlo day, Nick.

    A local radio station plays the Alice's Restaurant Massacree every Thanksgiving at noon. My daughter insists that we listen each year - even calling from California now to check that we're listening.

  5. Haven't heard some of those songs in years. When I looked at the first picture I thought about how young he looked. Then I saw the last one. How does time go by that fast?

  7. I'm grooving to your music!

    Coincidentally, someone sent me this link today of a new Arlo Guthie YouTube "Amazing Grace" live performance. It's 13 enjoyable minutes long:
