Release Date: 1974
Label: Reprise

Country music gets a bad reputation sometimes, thanks in no small part to the likes of Billy Ray Cyrus, but if you look beyond that, you will find great albums like this. Grammar Parsons has already appeared - as a band member - a couple of times in this blog - with the Byrds and with the Flying Burrito Brothers - but this is the first (and only) time we see him on his own (albeit with a lot of help from Emmylou Harris. Anyway, long story short, I thought the album was great. The only song I didn't care for was the first 'live' track.

Rating: 9/10
