Bout a funny ol’ world that’s a-comin’ along”
@onehitwondered.bsky.socialI doubt that Arlo Guthrie ever sweated the fact that his catalog didn't do very well on the pop chart... He just didn't play the pop game. Besides, FM stations were happy to play all 18 minutes of “Alice’s Restaurant,” and everyone went out and bought the album #ArloGuthrie #OneHitWondered #MusicSky
@onehitwondered.bsky.socialNo, Woody Guthrie never earned US #OneHitWonder honors… but his son Arlo sure did! He earned US #OneHitWonder honors in 1972 when his cover of Steve Goodman’s “City of New Orleans” spent nine weeks on the US #Billboard #Top40, peaking at #18. #ArloGuthrie #WoodyGuthrie #OneHitWondered #MusicSky
