The Cowsills In Books

Back Matter:
JOHN COWSILL John Cowsill could really play drums, and not badly. Of course, the stick-sweet pop-glop The Cowsill family passed of as rock was forgettable at best.

It got them hits, so who’s to argue? To paraphrase another writer, would you want to be in a band with your mom?
