This is all my mom's fault (which reminds me of that thread from a few weeks back about our parent's impacts on our musical tastes)--we should discuss that at more length.

"There was all kinds of mean, nasty, ugly-lookin' people on the bench there . . . there was mother-rapers . . . father-stabbers . . . father-rapers! FATHER-RAPERS sittin' right there on the bench next to me! And they was mean and nasty and ugly and horrible and crime fightin' guys were sittin' there on the bench, and the meanest, ugliest, nastiest one . . . the meanest father-raper of them all . . . was comin' over to me, and he was mean and ugly and nasty and horrible and all kinds of things, and he sat down next to me. He said, "Kid, what'd you get?""

As a side note, he has held true to his dirty folksie roots with the most minimal rider I have ever seen, which consists of (I kid you not):
2-clean white towels6-bottled waters (non-local preferred)one dressing room isolated no less than 20 yards from the stage that must have switchable overhead lights
That's it. So, the next time you wonder where Arlo Guthrie is, he's drinking water with a towel wrapped around his neck in the dark.

Which is more annoying/mildly interesting than actually good. Woody's in it, though.
What else has Arlo recorded that worth checking out?
