That was outstanding. I knew a lot about Gram, but I learned so much, and filled in many missing pieces. I wonder so often what he would have done if he had lived. He practically invented the country rock genre. What would his further influence have been on the Stones, on Emmylou Harris, on the Bakersfield sound. He could have continued to reshape country and rock music. You know he went too far on the drugs when Keith Richards complains that he didn't take good enough care of himself. Anyway, thank you so much for producing this video. I really enjoyed it. Now I'll probably spend the rest of the night listening to Gram music. 8^)

@@CMSProductions Hi Spotlight TV! You have a lot of interesting details about Gram. I think that I SAW Gram Parsons, but I'm not sure, in Spring 1972, at Case Western Reserve University, in Cleveland, Ohio. The university had a free concert, and I don't remember the name of the band. But I do remember my surprise, at seein' a bunch of hippies, with a pedal steel, singin', "We don't smoke marijuana in Muskogee..." How many hippie bands did that??? I LOVED that pedal steel sound, and was very impressed with the concert. For a while, up through about 1962, Cleveland, Ohio, had ONE and ONLY ONE Country Music venue, called the "Denison Square Theater" (by W 25th and Denison, up the hill from the Zoo, torn down by 1962). My Dad took me to see some legendary performers there, including Ernest Tubb, Little Jimmy Dickens, Kitty Wells with Johnny and Jack, Stonewall Jackson, Flatt and Scruggs, and Wilma Lee and Stoney Cooper. THE Country Music Record Store in Cleveland, was "Tommy Edwards Record Heaven", whose FIRST location (of many later), was right across the street from the Denison Square Theater. My Dad bought me a 45rpm, and I had Stonewall Jackson sign it ("16 Fathoms/30 Links of Chain", long gone by now). As a teen I listened to the "Top 40", but returned to Country Music, in my early 20's. Like Gram, Merle got me with "Bottle Let Me Down". LOVE that Pedal Steel sound. I play some Old-time Fiddle, and I liked your Old-time Fiddle backup music. Rock

@@CMSProductions Hi Spotlight! You know, Classical Music really took off, back when Bach was writin' stuff, and I really enjoy lots of the EARLY "Classical Music". But any Classical Music written since Mozart and Beethoven, sucks. Conversely, I have been very intrigued by the "evolution" of AMERICAN "Honky Tonk Music", which has really evolved over the last 80 years. Starting with Hank Sr, Hank wasn't allowed to use drums (He was "lucky" to be allowed to use electric instruments, by Opry standards), and Helms did a fantastic job on the steel, but the steel didn't have any pedals then. Jerry Rivers was limited to "double-stops only" on the fiddle. Hank almost never sang with a "harmony partner" (I heard some "Gospel" by Hank, NOT as "Luke the Drifter", in which Hank did sing with a female harmonist.). Right after Hank Sr. died (3 weeks after I was born), pedals appeared on the steel. Hank's protege, Ray Price, in addition to having pedals on the steel, made some modifications to "Honky Tonk", by singing HARMONIES, and by allowing the fiddle to play "single stop", which sounds way cool. (Ray Price was a victim of the tragedy, known as "Countrypolitan", in 1961.) THEN, Buck Owens took the "Ray Price" sound, and shifted the emphasis from "fiddle/pedal steel", to "pedal steel/fiddle". Buck Owens had the additional advantage, that producers allowed Buck (mostly Don Rich), to play like they wanted to play. Meanwhile, Clarence White and Doc Watson, turned the flattop, into a LEAD instrument, with flat-picking, and Leo Fender inundated the Music Scene, with solid body electric guitars. THEN, Clarence White added string-bending to the Telecaster. Spotlight, if you haven' seen the following video, about Gene Parsons drilling a hole in Clarence White's Telecaster, it's worth a look (Marty Stuart owns that guitar now.). kzread.info/dash/bejne/rKyFysSvm8iaZKw.html Here's my point. America is sitting on a POWDER KEG of Music, Music that one does NOT hear, on "American Idol" or "America's Got Talent". American Music ROCKS, and it is STILL IMPROVING. I think it's gonna "bust out", and it's interesting to know the History, like your channel provides. Rock

Gram Parsons is portrayed as some kind of country music savant. In reality he got started doing folk music. People like Bob Buchanan, who co-wrote 'Hickory Wind', got Gram interested in country music. Gram lucked into a gig with The Byrds, who had already dabbled in country music and made country flavored recordings (e.g., Mr. Spaceman) several years prior to his hiring. He was a talented songwriter and decent singer who helped re-energize The Byrds, but he also tried to take over the band, which didn't sit well with Hillman & McGuinn. Then he bailed on the eve of the South African tour. His increasing intake of alcohol and drugs got him fired from the Burritos and ultimately cost him his life.

It was a southern accent gone wrong or it could have been I was nervous because this was one of the first videos I had done. But at any rate I fired myself and I have apologized every day since posting the video. I hope this meets with your pleasure. As we say in the south Bless your little heart.

@Jay Touvelle It wasn't that you were to critical. It is just everyday several people send me similar text. my skin is to thick to let it bother me. it does however get old over time. I do appreciate you watching the video and I hope you will watch others. I try to answer each and every messages i received. It is my way of showing appreciation. Thank you again for watching the video and may God bless you and yours. Thanks, David

tell that to Sam Elliott. Get over yourself, I like how he rolls

Really?? He had a sweet voice yes, but was no prolific songwriter, or of any note really, another singer who's early death and legend being bigger than his ability(in context, yes he had ability, but his early death meant immortality and less facts about his limitations as a songwriter, gene clark was greater in every respect, but this guy gets more kudos, as in inventing country rock and cosmic rock, which he didn't, gene did it before him, sorry, gram was good, but not THAT good!

@@CMSProductions wow, touchy arn't we🤔I didn't say gram had no talent, he did, I'm putting things in perspective,he was totally country to me, more than true Americana and cosmic, he gets all the accolades, while gene clark often gets left behind, gene was a true cosmic cowboy, and songwriting genius, gram wasn't a genius songwriter, he wasn't, but what he was, I do like, but he was nothing more, his early death magnified him more, like it did with Jimmy Dean, who I think was a totally overrated actor, gram isn't overrated, he was very good at what he did, his influence and substance in what he did I feel is overestimated, sorry, didn't mean to offend🙏

Its lazy to throw "loving family" money at a him. Much harder to participate in loving a child. Imagine what his life could have been with genuine love. He was a true visionary.
