Cowsills on Tape

The Cowsills have filmed a three minute tape for use on TV in England. The film was made to coincide with the promotion of their No. 1 single over there, "The Rain, the Park and Other Things."

Filmed at Griffith Park in Los Angeles, the Cowsills are shown on a miniature train, traveling through various phases of rain, sun and trees. MGM's original plans for the Cowsills to visit England the first week in December are still uncertain, due to a conflict in recording schedule. The visit may be put off until after January.

However, a European tour is set for late fall. It will take the group to Germany, Denmark, France, Sweden, Holland and many other countries for which definite plans have not yet been announced.
