What an ass!

Another great Christmas song written by a nice, Jewish boy! ;-)

Right there with Alice's Restaurant making meaningful tomless social statements

You can hear his fathers influence .

@RobinRoche4429 Arlo can save my troubled mind - everything will be alright

Under another name I call Arlo Guthrie a national treasure. I still think so. To me his sarcasm as some call this, lacks the anger some people have so strongly that any humor is lost when they speak. I like Jimmy Buffet but Arlo is funnier to me. Arlo sarcasm no more, just having fun. Nobody's hurt. Arlo 💖 genuine American.

I fell in love with Arlo after seeing him in his movie and he turned down the groupie who was offering herself after a show. I clearly remember the scene where he turns her down, she had a cold and was sniffling. She asked him why he turned her down, he let her down easy, saying, "I just don't want to catch your cold." I was around 10 years old but I remember thinking that Arlo is the only man on the planet who would turn down a groupie. It was in his movie but it felt very real. I think the scene was mostly improvised I fell hard and never fell out. ❤❤❤

Woody came to the Pacific Northwest and wrote some songs about the dams being built on the Columbia River. So, Arlo used to come to Portland and play some of the small theaters. I enjoyed them.

Good to see after all these years. Bloody wonderfull ! ☮️♥️

Alice's Restaurant Massacree

I first heard this in 1971, on one of the Warner Brothers compilation albums and have been singing it every since. ./~ Santa Clause has a red suit he's a communist" chuckle. I love it. "I know. You can't stand up and say "Hey!""

Did "The Hoove", J. Edgar, The Head, REALLY wear dresses? Who started that rumor. Wasn't Arlo. Imagine wasting taxpayers money, harassing a sweetheart like Arlo Guthrie, son of a true hero, Woody. Dumb or what? Love you Arlo. Your picture, with Alice, sits on my kitchen window sill, above the sink under crystal sunflowers and wind chimes...Yes, I'm a hippie and proud of it! Namaste World, BE NICE TO EACH OTHER TODAY, TONIGHT...

So, at Newport, I think it was '67, or whenever the year Arlo introduced "Alice's Restaurant", after a workshop, he was being interviewed by a German magazine. And when he was done, all 18 years of me walked up, and he looked at me me, and I said "So, what are you gonna do?", and Arlos said "I don't know". Seven or so years later I met Jackie in KC, Kansas, and promised to sent Arlo an autoharp. It took forty years, but finally did it. He wrote back and said it was hung up in his garden, up there in Washington County.

Is that a harpsichord?

2022.love this

Arlo Guthrie was brilliant and lived in difficult times, times with a lot of change, but there were a lot of questionable ideas from that era from both sides. Police guys mess with peace guys because too many peace guys are not as peaceful as they claim. 'Peaceful' occupation, even in protest, is still occupation. Rule by a calm mob is just as much mob rule as rule by an angry mob and not all protesters stay calm. Yes, the government does sometimes get out of line and yes, the Vietnam War in particular was very questionable, however society having rules and enforcement of those rules is not in and of itself automatically wrong. Besides, the US already had socialist systems in place in the 60's (welfare systems, old age security, public education, etc) and on the other side, Santa knows when you are sleeping, knows when you're awake. Santa monitors far more stringently than the FBI ;)

Arlo's comedic talents have always been grossly under-estimated. This routine has stuck with me for almost 50 years. I've referred to "the last guy" and "they aren't really your friends, are they?" for almost 50 years.

Once again ' Arlo a National Treasure ' along with Pete Seeger, Woody Guthrie.

THIS 1312

Merry Christmas America!

from time to time I always come back to this video, and it always makes me lagh as the first time I've heard it

40 10 by 5 glossy photos

Now it's up to 27 FBI agents that saw this (11-5-21).

Wow , incredible story. 💙🌸💙

Another jewel re discovered! I love it. Thanks.

We should get together if y'all are going to rewrite my tunes lol

I have a pickle exspeachely when I ride my motor cyc... Le Fox greatest hits. Vol.711

LOL, OMG...you gotta learn to love a good asshole. Lol

We admitted we were powerless over alcohol-that our lives had become unmanageable. For I am convinced that neither death nor life nor angels nor governments nor things now here nor things to come nor powers 39 nor height nor depth nor any other creation will be able to separate us from God’s love that is in Christ Jesus our Lord. Came to believe that a Power greater than ourselves could restore us to sanity. Made a decision to turn our will and our lives over to the care of God as we understood Him. “Trust in Jehovah with all your heart and do not lean upon your own understanding.”​-PROVERBS 3:5. Made a searching and fearless moral inventory of ourselves. Admitted to God, to ourselves, and to another human being the exact nature of our wrongs. “Openly confess your sins to one another and pray for one another, that you may get healed.” (James 5:16) Were entirely ready to have God remove all these defects of character. Humbly asked Him to remove our shortcomings. “In my flesh, there dwells nothing good.” (Romans 7:18) Made a list of all persons we had harmed, and became willing to make amends to them all. Made direct amends to such people wherever possible, except when to do so would injure them or others. “If, then, you are bringing your gift to the altar and you there remember that your brother has something against you, leave your gift there in front of the altar, and go away; first make your peace with your brother, and then, when you have come back, offer up your gift.”​-Matt. 5:23, 24. Continued to take personal inventory and when we were wrong promptly admitted it. Sought through prayer and meditation to improve our conscious contact with God as we understood Him, praying only for knowledge of His will for us and the power to carry that out. Having had a spiritual awakening as the result of these steps, we tried to carry this message to alcoholics and to practice these principles in all our affairs. Jesus said to him: “Get up! Pick up your mat* and walk.”+ 9 And the man immediately got well, and he picked up his mat* and began to walk. Bill W. Quotes this one in the big book ^^^ Jesus says, 'no one comes to the Father except through me.' (If you are rationalising, you are doing something wrong - mine) Jehovah is God, may He pour His Holy Spirit out upon us. Jesus Christ is Lord, Saviour and King. Maybe I'll stick around A.A. in case I can help someone else. The teachers shall be judged more harshly than the students. Jehovah has the final say. P.S. You might need a bigger banner, I'm not joking, I am in earnest. The scripture should go above the steps

Awesome!

I'm loving it🐱!!

This never gets old. Arlo at his best

BRILLIANT!

This one has been updated. Check out "Gov't Tracking your iPhone? ONE TAKE with John Crist"

Now I understand why I don't trust Santa Claus,or the FBI,oh my.....

Thank you. I remember when this was a new release. Good to hear it again.

Robin Roche I feel the same, often. Well said. Thank you.

I adore Arlo.

Here it is the last of May 2020, and how many of you knew exactly what he was talking about when he said 'drop a dime into the phone'!....but there hasn't been a pay phone since about 1990....so that's what.... 30 years or so? And even if this was 1990, a phone call then cost like 50cents or more! lol..... But still yet, so many of you knew that at one point in your lifetime, you could make a phone call for a mere dime!....and you didn't think that time travel was possible..... just shows to go you what you know! lol

Some days people on reefer are too bad and mad to talk or dance for

Love it.

Good day blunderite1, It is Christmas eve 2019, 2am on the 25th. I want to thank you and Arlo for this gift of laughter. Peace and Love and joy in these trying times, from Canada <3

I'm ok with cloning if its Arlo being cloned. He is pure Genius! Thanks Arlo Guthrie.

And they're even worse now than they were then.

So, 16 FBI agents saw this, eh?

@Adam Rich Arlo one said before a song in concert " Folk song are serious. Pete Seeger told me that. I said right!" Then he sang something like this. Still love City of New Orleans, Gabriel Mother's Highway Blues #16 gardensong song Darkest Hour, Strangest Dream. Him singing This Land Is Your Land.

Funniest singer I have listened to.

Arlo was my mom's cousin some times removed. He is just a cutie with his talent and heritage make him one of a kind and most of all just cute as a spotted pup.i wish he was my kissing cousin

Arlo has the best humor I've ever heard.
