Usually hear it on public radio in the car on the way to relatives, but staying home this year.

Sometimes multiple times. Tomorrow they'll be playing it about noon (local time) as part of an album sides day.

"You can get anything you want at Alice's restaurant (excepting Alice)."

And, not to rain on anyone's parade, but a reminder:

Alice died last year. RIP, Alice! (Remember Alice? There was a song about Alice. And her restaurant....)

Once we sat down and said Grace, my uncle would drop the needle. We would listen to it as we started.

I still play it every Thanksgiving, even though I have not had a real one for a few decades now.
