    When this album finally clicks for you your head'll explode. What they were attempting here was very daring at the time, and today we take it for granted. Its a masterpiece and this band deserves way more honor than they've gotten.

    Gram Parsons has to be entered in the ROCK N ROLL hall of FAME and the COUNTRY MUSIC HALL OF FAME. The man, Gram Parsons was, is and always be a star for his writing, performance influence on country and Rock. We wouldn't have Emmy Lou Harris, Poco, America, the Eagles without Gram Parsons talent and ability to blend country and Rock. Please. He deserves this honour.

      Polly Parsons, Condolences to you. I loved your Dad's music and performance. Let's rally to get your Dad honoured as he should already have been. Let's do what we can do to get Gram into the Rock n Roll hall of Fame and the Country music hall of fame. He deserves every bit of this honour. ❤

    02:25 Parsons' voice in the high harmony cracks, he even coughs slightly, but they decided not to correct that on the recording. They left it as is, fresh and natural. Man I love these guys, their importance in music history is criminally underrated.

      Its what I came for, my dose of Sneaky Pete! What kills me is he uses both the traditional country style clean sound, but is way busier than Chet Atkins would have ever let anyone run on steel in his studio lol. And then he goes into that overdriven sacred steel style, that’s almost blues but also kind of a jazz skronk to it. Just like the Burritos as a whole, SP used the steel guitar to make a whole new sound while staying true to its roots at the same time.

    This is still the coolest thing I've ever seen. I credit this song and video with getting me back into country music, so much so that I started my own band called Way Behind The Sun. My parents have a traditional country band, and that's the stuff I was raised on, but I strayed away to metal and hard rock in my college years...then my little brother (our band's bass player) showed me this, and took me back "home." It just "hit differently" as the kids say. I was so moved, it was all I listened to. Now I'm all in, and I always will be. Best music ever!

      I'll usually claim the Byrds earned that honor, via Sweetheart of the Rodeo, and I allege without proof that Mr. Hillman would agree. But I won't be pedantic about it -- the lineage is well known, and the all knew and appreciated and collaborated in various combinations over their lives. But if take into account how little known the Burritos are, in relation to their role in that sound, then yes, let us praise and thank them some more! They brought it forward in a way musicians know was a big deal, but (as another commenter alludes) as to selling albums ... yes, there were some people without Burritos albums.

    For me This band paved the straight line between the Rock and Country! The way to play Pedal Steel Guitar with Fuzz is such incredible!
    Gram Parsons was the genuine Outlaw Country star!

    One great band, and the original line up too! They (with Bernie Leadon and Rick Roberts) were last minute replacements for another band at City College of New York. I was working for the student center and caught the sound check. I always thought the pedal steel was just a comic instrument, until I heard Pete do "Mr. Sandman". WOW! Got a chance to talk to him about why he used a single neck when Jerry Garcia used a double neck and so on. Hearing them was a real life changer for me!

    Sneaky Pete Rocked his Pedal Steel, NOT lap steel. My husband has played Pedal Steel for over 40 years, he attended Sneaky's memorial in Joshua Tree and met his daughters. They still speak to this day!!! Love ❤️ you Gram, you cupcake!!! 😻

    I’m in the middle of reading Chris Hillman’s book, “Time Between”… I wanted to get a look at the stage suits they had made up, came across this song which I’ve never heard before - fantastic! Will definitely be checking out more of their material! Love those Sneaky Pete solos!

    The FBB brought out the best in Parsons. After 40 years, their music is more alive than any modern country/rock around today.

  • @JackGander
    @JackGander 16 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    It was originally released as "Christine's Tune", but they renamed it "Devil in Disguise" a couple of years later, after Christine Frka (the GTO about whom it was written)died. I know this thanks to Bob Dylan's Theme Time Radio Hour, by the way.

  • @StanKindly
    @StanKindly ปีที่แล้ว +6

    Looks like they put Michael Clarke in the video out of respect (even though he didn't play on the recording). Gram called it American Cosmic Music (rightly so) but as far as Country Rock nothing has ever touched The Gilded Palace of Sin album since - and it really started the whole genre!

I can't believe that I would only discover them today, because they were listed next to Poco's songs! Well, thanks for this great post--I think this band is awesome!!! Peace, BobbyK

    Spoke to three lads just come down from Manchester to start a band in Suffolk. I asked what their influences were they said Zeppelin, Stooges, Sabbath… ok ok I said. I want you to spend some time listening to the Byrds and The flying Burrito Bros and come back and tell me if it helps. I’ll let you know….
