The Story Behind: Gram Parsons - Grievous Angel, Ep 184

1 tim 43 min18 november 2024

Musicians recount the strange and unexpected story behind the making of your favorite albums. Gram Parsons had a dream of creating and popularizing cosmic american music: a mix of country, rock, and Americana. After a stint in The Byrds he began his solo career strong and had a follow up album (Grievous Angel) in the can, but died tragically before it could see release. The boys discuss tasty pedal steel licks, under-rehearsed yet somehow perfect harmonies, and funeral pacts with outlaw biker pals.
