"#AlicesRestaurant Massacree", commonly known as "Alice's Restaurant", is a satirical #talkingBlues song by singer-songwriter #ArloGuthrie, released as the title track to his 1967 debut album Alice's Restaurant. The song is a deadpan protest against the #VietnamWarDraft, in the form of a comically exaggerated but largely true story from Guthrie's own life: while visiting acquaintances in #StockbridgeMassachusetts, he is arrested.

Chris Bouchillon - Born In Hard Luck (1927)

Chris moet gedacht hebben: "als je niet kunt zingen kun je altijd nog praten".
Daarmee werd hij de aartsvader van de gesproken plaat. Ik wil niet gelijk zeggen de vader van de "rap" maar toch wel de vader van de "Talking Blues".
