Gram Parsons:Classic or dud?

there’s an alternate reality where the Grateful Dead have Emmylou instead of Donna.

it’s stunning to realize emmylou had only recorded her first album just a few years prior, she’s still so new and young but so incredible already… her harmonies with gram are lightyears above what he’d done w hillman

i mean, apples and oranges really but still

His death was an absolute classic.
