@Oznell Thank you for posting this.  Last saw them perform about 2 years ago in Boca Raton.  They were the opening act with other performers from that era, including Chuck Negron of 3 Dog Night.  Great show

Their Mom sang with them...Dad was the bossy one pulling all the strings in the background.  

My favorite Cowsill's song...We Can Fly.   ...https://youtu.be/j9za1WDoHuo

No, @PA Mom-mom ,  I haven't seen any of their in-person concerts.  Just happened by happy accident to come across the Youtube video-- it gave me a lift!

i was 12.  Loved this song.  My favorite is Indian Lake because not too far from me is a state park named Indian Lake.  It used to be a grand amusement park in it's day.

Wow. That is a blast from the past. I saw them perform when I was a kid at the Steel Pier in Atlantic City. I think the daughter was around the same age as me. 


I saw them there too, think it was summer of either 1968 or 1969. 


@Shelbelle I think it was 1969. They were there for a couple of weeks. You never know, we could have been at the same show!  


I remember the show i saw was on a Sat afternoon. My friends father drove us up from Baltimore for the day just to see the concert.
