Somebody posted a good latter day video of "You Ain't Going Nowhere" a little while back, but not sure about how to go about finding it.

"You're Still on My Mind" gets a lot of play on hangover days.

man gram doesn't come off well at all in the hotel california book i'm reading. he really bummed a lot of people out.

scott seward, Thursday, 19 November 2009 18:46 (2 days ago) Permalink

there's an early - prob international submarine band era - vid clip of gram performing on a boat - so he's prob 'luxury liner', really can't remember - where he does this terrible, i mean just awful, camp jagger impersonation, kinda punctured the myth a bit for me, for a while - but so glad i finally got to hear his vocal version of '100 years from now', one of the bonus tracks on the expanded edition of 'sweetheart'

i def remember an old ilx thread where lots of ppl were really slagging of 'sweetheart' and i was like :-((( so thanx for this thread folx

i guess i always sorta suspected this? what little i know of his life (i'm vague on much other than "harvard dropout," "was in byrds," "liked drugs," and "friends stole body, supposedly?"), for some reason, made me assume that he was better at singing country than he was at conducting life

yeah, don't get me wrong. i like this album and the burritos stuff a bunch. just weird reading about how he was really a non-entity to a lot of people at that time. like an "oh is that guy still alive?" kinda thing. but, you know, its 1969! he wasn't taken seriously by a lot of people. the myth came later.

listenin to this bitch right now

wait are you talkin about this "older guys" clip? i have to admit to thinking it's sort of great. goofy, but great.
