Sally StrangeRIP Alice Brock, of "Alice's Restaurant" fame. TIL: Alice helped Arlo Guthrie write the first part of the song. The restaurant of the song, the Back Room, was in Massachusetts, but was closed by the time the song became famous. She was also a librarian and an author. For the kids who don't want to spend 20 minutes listening to the whole story: in between the catchy chorus about how you can get anything you want at Alice's restaurant, Arlo sing-talks a long story. It starts with a big dinner at Alice's. Then Arlo and his pal take some trash to the dump, but the dump is closed, so they leave the trash in a ravine. Then they get arrested for littering and Alice bails them out. THEN, later on, Arlo gets called for the Vietnam draft, but since he has this criminal conviction for littering he is not, as the song puts it, "moral enough join the Army, burn women, kids, houses and villages after bein’ a litterbug." Hence why it became an anti-war anthem.<a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/music" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#music</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/FolkMusic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FolkMusic</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/AntiWar" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AntiWar</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/ArloGuthrie" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ArloGuthrie</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/ProtestSongs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ProtestSongs</a> <a href="https://archive.is/hjhou" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://archive.is/hjhou</a>
