Good morning! Here at On Repeat, we have a few traditions. We play Jimmy Buffett’s ‘Volcano’ on May 18th. July 4th means it’s time for John Phillip Souza’s ‘Stars and Stripes Forever.’
And Thanksgiving? Thanksgiving means it’s time to dust off Arlo Guthrie’s ‘Alice’s Restaurant.’
Enjoy!

Happy Thanksgiving to everyone celebrating today!
Here’s to you having a fantastic day, in whatever form that might take.
Got a team playing? I’m rooting for ‘em.
Gonna be at work (like I will be)? Here’s to an easy/safe shift with coworkers that fill the breakroom with good side dishes.
Either way, I’d love to hear how you’re spending the day! Chime in below.

Thanks for being here,

P.S. Playing this song on T-day is about as close as I get to having any kind of Thanksgiving holiday traditions. Here’s a quick read on the song’s background, and why you’re likely to catch it on the radio today.
Hope you had a great Thanksgiving and that work went well!
I live on the east coast, my daughter in the southwest. Alice's Restaurant has been our Thanksgiving morning tradition as long as I can remember (she is 53) and so we share this 18 minutes of fun every year.
