Thanksgiving is near, and I always think of that song that my mom and all her sisters used to sing when we were kids….
They’d get out the guitar and start belting out: “You can get anything you want at Alice’s Restaurant….” We’d laugh at them and pretend we weren’t related, but it was a really great Woody Guthrie song that made us all laugh. Why does Thanksgiving bring that memory up? Well, take a listen and see if you can get why a radio station around here always plays it on Thanksgiving day….
