The California interior has been on my mind of late, not sure of all the reasons why, watching the movie "The Book of Eli" reminded me of it and the fact that its a good time of year to visit Joshua Tree does so as well. Gram Parsons is famously associated with the area, see the wikipedia article for more information.
Country music that would not see the light of day on a country music station. Shame.
ReplyDeleteWord around the campfire is that Gram coached up Mick Jagger for some of the Stones' country-flavored songs on "Sticky Fingers", "Exile on Main Street" and "Let it Bleed".
I always get asked about my t-shirt with the "Sweetheard of the Rodeo" album cover.
