This may sound silly, but they had a majorly wasted opportunity with a band they could toured with in the late 1960's or early 1970's. The Jelly Bean Bandits. Imagine that, The Flying Burrito Brothers and The Jelly Bean Bandits touring! That would have been an amazing tour.

SACD of Gilded Palace of Sin sounds great, as one would expect from a Kevin Gray job. Well worth checking out for those who want to hear a great album sounding arguably the best it's ever sounded.

They rock so much! One of several bands I was aware of for years, but only started to listen to recently. Their best album is The Gilded Palace of Sin.

The post-Parsons stuff is worth checking out, for those who haven't done so. Not as good as the stuff with Parsons, but the self-titled and Last of the Red Hot Burritos are both very enjoyable records.

Burrito Deluxe, Guilded Palace and the self tiled (despite not having Gram) may very well be the best country albums ever.

If you like Lu's beautiful blend of country, soul, folk, gospel, and rock, check out Justin Townes Earle: http://www.ctzine.com/justin-townes-earle-carries-on-the-tradition-of-americana-gospel-nothings-gonna-change-the-way-you-feel-about-me-now/

"He quit the Byrds because of that, and most people know that excuse was bullshit."...yep Parsons wanted to follow Keith Richards around like a puppy dog instead of touring with the Byrds at that point. The South Africa Apartheid thing was just a convienient excuse at the time.

Gram Parsons was a great songwriter. Belly's cover of Hot Burrito is awesome too - got me into them.

My dad's old boss at the radio station he used to work at was Chris Hillman's roommate in college. Pretty damn cool, eh? Amazing musicians, Gram was perfect. Hot Burrito #1 is one of my favorite tracks ever recorded. So much emotion!

Anybody else irritated that Elvis Costello's cover of Hot Burrito #1 is incorrectly listed as I'm Your Toy?
