Alice Brock, the woman who gave Arlo Guthrie’s classic Thanksgiving tune “Alice’s Restaurant Massacre” its name, has died at the age of 83.
She was instrumental in Arlo Guthries’ song “Alices Restaurant”……classic.
It all started on Thanksgiving 1965. Guthrie recalled. “Rick and I went to visit Ray and Alice for Thanksgiving in 1965. The rest is history. Alice went into the restaurant business and Arlo began his years as an entertainer. They were, both in their own ways, very successful.
I have always enjoyed the contributions of Woody and Arlo Guthrie.
