What's your favourite Gram Parsons track? Drop me a comment and let me know your top pick. I reckon I'll go for 'Love Hurts' off Grievous Angel.

One of the ironies of modern consumer technology is that thousands of documentaries of musical history are not permitted to include any of the music under discussion.

I remember Gram in the 70s. He was a product of that time. Drug use was giggled at. The story of his death has become as famous as his music. Cheers to Emmy Lou

Really a tragic story about a young talented very bright guy. Overwhelming tragic events occurring in his young life, with the unfolding drug culture you were caught up in was a real trap that further hampered your young life. RIP.

I don't know how you did it, but you included a lot of photographs here that I've never seen before. Very exciting to see them. Thanks.

That was good, thank you. As soon as you said “Terry Melcher” I said out loud to myself “oh no…”

Uh' damm, under the fog of drugs, crashing a hearst with bady charged body into a airport hanger, in front of the police, sounds like an Cohen's bros plot
