The Cowsill, a six-member family act with a truckload of his single, and albums, made their big time nitery debut one year ago at the Flamingo and earned plaudits for their showmanship and stage savvy as well as for their singing and musicianship.

Consisting of Barbara “Mama” Cowsill, her four teenage sons and her 1-yer-old daughter Susan, the Cowsills first demanded national attention with their recording of “The Rain The Park and Other Things.”

They followed the initial hit with big sellers like “We Can Fly,” “In Need Of A Friend,” “Indian Lake” and “Hair.” They were also enthusiastically received in appearances on television shows like the Jonathan Winters Show, Operation Entertainment, Hollywood Palace, Kraft Music Hall and the Ed Sullivan Show.

They have become a popular attraction in concert halls across the country.
