“The Rain, The Park And Other Things” #2 12/2/1967

Some sunshine pop by the real-life inspiration for "The Partridge Family" TV show. The Cowsills started out as four brothers (Bill, Bob, Barry and John) in a rock band from Newport, RI. Their mom was talked into singing harmonies on their first album. After the success of this single, brother Paul and baby sister Susan joined the family group. The original four brothers are the ones seen in today's video. Co-written by Arnie Kornfeld, soon to be a promoter of the Woodstock festival. Barry Cowsill was a drowning victim in the immediate aftermath of Hurricane Katrina in New Orleans.
