A happy crowd fills the BergenPAC auditorium in Englewood, NJ this Wednesday, June 7, 2023 evening ready to experience the music of the 1960s with the 2023 edition of the Happy Together Tour featuring The Turtles, Little Anthony, Gary Puckett, The Vogues, The Classics IV, and The Cowsills.
. . .
The pre-recorded voice of DJ Shadow Stevens introduces "the real life inspiration for The Partridge Family - The Cowsills," and Bob, Paul, and Susan Cowsill enter the stage. Bob greets the cheering crowd, announcing, "You guys are great! Thank you for coming out tonight. Happy Together '23 is in full motion!"
The Cowsills open the show with a bouncy rendition of their catchy '67 hit, “The Rain, The Park, and Other Things” (aka "The Flower Girl").
The happy strains of this joyful '60s tune fill the air as audience members move to the groove at their seats.
Paul exclaims, "This next song goes out to everybody in the balcony!" as the trio launches into their 1967 hit, "We Can Fly." Music lovers clap along to the rhythm and listen to the tight vocal harmonies of the trio as a kaleidoscope of colors flash on the screen behind them.
Bob introduces his siblings, Paul and Susan, before The Cowsills perform a lively version of "Indian Lake," a song which made Susan Cowsill, at the age of nine, the youngest person to perform on a hit record when the tune reached the Top 10 in 1968.
The trio follows up with a TV theme song they recorded back in 1969 - the theme from Love, American Style.
Concertgoers cheer, and Paul thanks the crowd as a fan calls out "Hair!" and Bob replies, "Of course, we're going to do that!" The Cowsills end their nostalgic set with a high-energy rendition of their 1969 smash.
At the conclusion of "Hair," audience members stand and cheer as The Cowsills take a well-deserved bow.
