Rhino is putting out a Gram Parsons 3-CD collection!!! Includes a DVD documentary too. Gram's long time collaborator Emmylou Harris produced the box set!
heres a review...
"It's the third disc that has the unreleased treasures" (4 1/2 stars) -- Rolling Stone
Produced by Emmylou Harris and Rhino's James Austin, the three-CD set is a comprehensive collection of Parsons' legendary recordings for Reprise. Disc one presents his 1973 solo debut, GP, plus seven bonus tracks, including a rare 1973 promo interview. Disc two presents 1974's posthumously released Grievous Angel, along with three bonus tracks, including another revealing interview. Disc three contains seven previously unissued alternate takes from the GP sessions and eight from the Grievous Angel sessions, plus three more solo outtakes released only on A&M's 1976 compilation Sleepless Nights.
Florida-born, Georgia-bred singer, songwriter, musician and raconteur Gram Parsons was among the first, if not the first, to bridge the gap between country and rock in the late 1960s and early '70s, as a member of The International Submarine Band, The Byrds, and The Flying Burrito Brothers. Then the California-based "Grievous Angel" flew solo, capturing the soul of real country music on two landmark albums, and connecting West Coast redneck rock and the Nashville establishment. Musical protégé and collaborator Emmylou Harris carried his torch by touring and recording with his band, The Fallen Angels. Later generations of artists, from Elvis Costello to R.E.M.'s Peter Buck to the Black Crowes, discovered his legend and recorded his music.

GOOGLE IS A SEARCH ENGINE ON YOUR COMPUTER. WORKS JUST LIKE ASKING SOMEONE TO LOOK UP INFO ABOUT SOMETING ON A MSG BOARD. ONLY WITHOUT HAVING THEM HAVE TO DO THE WORK FOR YOU.
GOOGLE "DIRTY WORK". YOU'LL HAVE FUN.
CHEERS! |
