I vacationed in the Berkshires in western Mass. a few years ago and, in addition to more popular tourist destinations (Norman Rockwell Museum, Tanglewood), I made the pilgrimage to all the sites associated with the song: The “scene of the crime (littering),” the courthouse where the hearing took place, and, of course, the actual restaurant, now with a new name. No more Alice ...

Thanks for posting this. I haven't listened to the whole thing for probably 25 years!

Awesome!

Great song, just goes on for about 15 mins more than it need. If you can get anything you want from Alice’s Restaurant, how about a 3.5 minute edit!

Not so much a song as a story told with a musical background, still good though.
