But my top Gram Parsons pick is the Flying Burrito Brothers. 1st album (Gilded Palace of Sin) is fantastic. Dark End of the Street for example really shows the soul/country thing that he loved. Second album is solid, but weaker. Because the consistent thread throughout his career is that he was a lazy spoilt prick who would get bored and wander off to the next thing leaving everyone else to pick up the slack.
I am going to have a little explore tonight - I'll begin with these two suggestions....
There's also an album by the International Submarine Band that I think has Gram on it.
And thank you @Offset - I can imagine why he'd become someone's favourite artist. Incredible life story. I wonder whether to start with Grievous Angel and work backward or whether to make a playlist with songs from all the records he was on. Wild Horses is one of my favourite Stones tracks. The article I read says he was kicked out of the Exile on Main street sessions in France for being a bad influence!

Are you a country fan @barnstorm ? I've downloaded some Townes Van Zandt recently too - after hearing about him on a podcast about working session players with big beards in Nashville.
