Happy Together Tour 2017 !

Reviews:

James G. - Cowsills were great in Mississippi Last night!! Had a blast!! Just wish they could have played more songs on this Happy Together Tour at least one or two and it would have been super great!!

Jeff P. - they ARE having SOOOOOOOOOOO MUCH FUN on the HTT....GREAT ADDITION..

Masslive: -

The Cowsills quickly followed Dante with the trademark three-part vocal harmonies courtesy of siblings Bob, Susan and Paul.

Hailing from "just down the road" in Newport, Rhode Island, the trio would rifle through their own greatest hits collection - including "The Rain, The Park & Other Things" and "Hair" - while displaying a mixture of on-stage energy and self-deprecating humor surrounding the age of its members - a common theme throughout the night.

"We're old people too. But if you want to do this, get new knees," cracked Susan Cowsill to her brother, Paul, after leaping off the drum riser.

Centerline.news - The Cowsills, on the tour for the third year in a row, were once again a revelation on their huge hits "The Rain, The Park and Other Things," "Indian Lake" and "Hair."

Jonathan R. - And of course, the Cowsills knocked it out of the park again last night in Tarrytown!

Ken O. - Susan, Bob, Paul, You knocked it out of park. Crowd loved you!

Gary N. - Tarrytown,NY 6/18/17-GREAT show !!!

Lois R. - They are always the highlight of HTT!!! Great night at Keswick!

John M. on mccall.com:

While much of the success of the Happy Together Tour – the annual jaunt that collects oldies acts for an ensemble show –relies on the familiarity of the hit songs they perform, Thursday night’s stop at Penn’s Peak near Jim Thorpe showed there’s also something to be said for keeping the show fresh.

Now 33 years since it started (is there such thing as an oldies oldies show?) the tour as usual had as its anchor The Turtles, featuring Flo and Eddie (Mark Volman and Howard Kaylan). Longtime tour members The Association also were back, as was frequent feature Chuck Negron of Three Dog Night.

But the most interesting acts of the night were ones not previously seen on the tour: The Box Tops, The Cowsills and Ron Dante, voice of The Archies. And The Box Tops may have been the best of the bunch.

. . .

The Cowsills – surviving siblings Paul, Bob and Susan (brother John now plays with The Beach Boys; the other two brothers deceased) -- were surprisingly good.

The trio opened with “The Rain, The Park and Other Things,” recapturing the 1960s/Partridge Family feel (The Cowsills were the inspiration for TV’s ”The Partridge Family.”) Some of the songs sounded very dated – “Indian Lake” and especially the flower-power anthem “We Can Fly.”

But the set-closing hit “Hair” still connected, with Susan nailing the tonality of the original. It got a partial standing ovation.

The group also played the theme to the 1970s show “Love American Style” – who knew it originally sang that?

. . .

Duke26 - The Cowsills were next and they were phenomenal. Only 3 remain but they sang brilliantly. There's something about siblings singing together (see The Bee Gees, The Carpenters, The Jacksons) that brings a special kind of magic. Favorite moment: Meeting Tommy James, The Cowsills singing "The Rain, The Park and Other Things"
