Boy, let me explain the situation to you:
A. You're getting me down.

Great song by CW (should have been a bigger hit with it), but you could have included the last few seconds of this.

This song is based on a real event from the late 1960s, when a band of hippies rolled into Ouray and decided to stay.
The Rest of the Story: the hippies left Ouray, and moved down the road to Telluride.
"Crispy Critters" is also the name of the unofficial C.W. McCall fan club.



Bill says this is based on a real event from the late 1960s, when a band of hippies rolled into Ouray and decided to stay.
Al, of Als Conoco, was the mayor of Ouray back in the sixties, and we all watched as he ran those hippies outa town. He laughed and said they settled in Telluride.
Any one who is interested can write
