    The Cowsills were so underrated and never got their due !! Susan tried her best to keep it together !

    Susan Cowsill, playing an offbeat on the tambourine, had a greater amount of musical acumen at age 8 than most adult pop stars of today’s music world.

      @@vc9743this was from the Ed Sullivan show and most all of the guest performances were taped live, hence so many things going down on his show. For instance Jim Morrison promising not to say girl we couldn’t get much higher when he sang light my fire, then singing it anyway just to spite Ed. Needless to say the Doors contract with Ed was tore up.

    The Rain, the Park & Other Things" is a pop song with music and lyrics co-written by Artie Kornfeld and Steve Duboff. It was recorded by the pop band the Cowsills, and included on their 1967 self-titled debut album. Released as a single, the song reached No. 2 on the Billboard charts. It was kept from the No. 1 spot by "Daydream Believer" by the Monkees. The single cemented the group's international popularity and sold some three million copies over the years. It ties with 1969's "Hair" as the group's biggest hit, as both reached No. 2 in the US. In Canada, "The Rain, the Park & Other Things" reached No. 1 on the RPM singles chart.

    We encountered them at a resort in North Carolina. We had a house there near the beach. I recall playing in the sand with my brother and the younger siblings. The older boys of course were chasing after the girls, which we young kids thought was silly. We also played with Loretta Lynn's kids when she performed there as well.

    Barry Cowsill playing bass guitar (in the front center) is the one that died during hurricane Katrina in 2005 in New Oleans. He was 50 years old.
