Today 1973 Gram Parsons died
Gram Parsons : 1946_November_05 – 1973_September_19.
So today it's 34 years ago he died. I followed him intensivily in them years but just now figure out he wasn't even 28 years. Strange feeling.
Instead of me writing about Gram Parsons it's much better to let Emmylou Harris talk about him. Here's a Youtube video where Emmylou pitches for Gram in a 2000 UK TV poll for the "Influential Musician of the Millennium".
I hope you liked this, don't you ? So here's another one. You'll hear Gram Parsons and Emmylou Harris in Grevous angel while you're watching a very nice 4 minute photo/video compilation !
Note that the girls on the sleeve of the Flying Burrito Brothers album Guilded palace of sin weren't friends but just some models. They all appear on this vid !
At the end his death is viewed : at the Joshua Tree Inn, due to alcohol and drugs... You can find elsewhere (but I hope you already knew, if so you're like me a real GP fan ....) all the further info about that tragical ('musical') event.
Emmylou Harris own composition 'Boulder to Birmingham' is a kinda lovesong to him. Listen please !
I wrote earlier about Gram. His sudden leaving from the International Submarine Band to the Byrds. His singing on Sweetheart on the rodeo. The banning to issue that Columbia recording with the voice of Gram by Lee Hazlewood ......
I give you enough 'key-words' for searching my Blog. Take your time to do so....
In one of my earlier posts I told ya about that LP Sweetheart of the rodeo.
I offer you in the comment this LP.
But there's more.
I offer ya even three 'Sweetheart' albums !!
Great tracks like You Ain't Going Nowhere, The Christian Life (with Gram takes 7, 8 ,11), Life In Prison (with Gram take 1, 2, 3, 4, 11), You Don't Miss Your Water, One Hundred Years From Now (with Gram take 2, 12, 13, 14), Hickory Wind plus Nothing Was Delivered.
First the album itself with some bonustracks by Gram (the not issued ones).
Second just Gram Parons bonus tracks & some International Submarine Band tracks.
Third again the LP but with different bonus tracks by Gram Parsons.
So enough choice I think.
Maybe this is all confusing but when you go to the comments it will all be clear.
I added the 'take' numbers to the various songs so it's up to yourself.
I myself would know : I'd take all three !! But I'm not you ... :-)
By the way, watch the date november 05 (Gram's birthday !) when I will post a unique black/white clip by Gram and Emmy.....
Already prepared it. :-)

Listening to International Submarine Band - Safe at Home as I write this. Wonderful :)
I'm amazed at all the obscure and bootleg Parsons material I've found on the web recently.
Many thanks for dl's and the extra info.
