Folk singer Arlo Guthrie is most famous for his talking blues song Alice's Restaurant' which lasts for an astonishing 18 minutes and 20 seconds.
The song, which Guthire claims, lasts for the same length of time as one of the famous gaps in Nixon's Watergate tapes, is about how Guthrie was rejected for military service due to a petty crime he had committed. The song was a favorite on college radio stations in the 1960s despite its length, and Guthrie often spins it out even longer in live performances. The song also inspired a film of the same name, in which Guthrie starred, and his performance also led to further film and TV appearances, including a starring role Alan Moon on the television series, The Byrds of Paradise.
With more than 20 albums behind him, Guthrie has an amazing back catalogue to make for an impressive all round performance, so get your Arlo Guthrie tickets today to be a part of this amazing show!
