NASHVILLE - The Cowsills captured the Nashville Sound and captivated the Nashville audience.
The MGM family appearing at the Ramada Inn as part of a promotional tour, received a standing ovation from a predominantly music industry audience.
Particularly effective was their rendition of "Nashville Cats," performing after an introduction by Bob Cowsill in which he said "This is where it's happening."
The group opened with "The Rain, the Park and Other Things," their current single, and performed several numbers from their new album, including a couple of original tunes penned by members of the family. Swinging back to Nashville music, the Cowsills got a heavy round of applause for "Oh Lonesome Me."
Frank Mancini, MGM's head of promotion and artists relations, said the Cowsills had never performed the same show twice on their promotional swing, and planned this program particularly for Nashville. It showed good planning and exceptional talent.
