Caught Arlo & Family last night, my first Arlo concert, and being that it was my first, I was so glad he performed his big standards. It was all pure enjoyment. Sara and Johnny blend so well together and sound just as great singing solo, plus with Abe they're all the perfect backing singers for Arlo's songs.

I was also pleasantly amazed to discover Gordon Titcomb, wotta versatile talent, his occasional pickin' breaks were mini-masterpieces.

Not to mention Arlo's pickin' as well--maybe I ain't been payin' attention, somehow I'd pigeon-holed him as basically a strummer, but he can pick!

I brought my 83-year old Mom who just loved it. I was able to score an autograph while she was resting at a banister across the lobby. I told Arlo about her, then he looked over to her, waved and hollered, "HI MOM!", lol, it delighted her. Thanks for a tremendous evening Arlo!

Sounds like a great show! I had a late Aunt who was from Harrisburg. I went there once in the 60's or 70's. Gordon is great & he really adds something special to Arlos shows...

i'd say the highlights for me were: bringing in a couple of ki's, road to new orleans, the restaurant song, and this land is our land

can anyone tell me the name of that song about bringing in a couple of ki's?

Coming Into Los Angeles is the correct title about bringing in a couple of kis or keys. Arlo always tells the story at his shows about LA/seat 36C/technology mainly about security checks with human guards not canines smelling you before entering an airport terminal. :lol: That is the most hilarious story ever told by Arlo :)

I'm glad you enjoyed the concert. Arlo is very addicting and makes you come back for barrels of fun. I have seen him six times in one year-never a dull moment each time I see him :)

Running Down the Road released in 1969 has the original studio song version its awesome! The Woodstock soundtrack has a live stage version that is marvelous which sounds almost the same as the studio version I personally call unplugged. 8)
Best of luck buying the CD!

Peace,
Lorie

NO 'luck' needed... click on "get stuff" over there on the left... or go to www.risingsonrecords.com ... and click on the STORE.

If you want a more current version, along with some of the other songs you may have heard, get LIVE IN SYDNEY... that was recorded on Arlo's down under tour about two years ago.

Glad you enjoyed the show! Glad you're here!
