Just a stray thought to piggyback off of my last Gram Parsons post.

I realize how many artists have covered “Love Hurts”, but the best version clearly belongs to Gram Parsons (and Emmylou).

The version on Grievous Angel has that stripped-down, aching country feel that really fits the lyrics of that song.

It’s far less polished than say…the Nazareth version, but way more intimate sounding.

Gram Parsons had a way of making heartbreak sound… almost noble.

Saddle Tramp

The Charlie Daniels Band release what many consider one of the cornerstone Southern rock albums of the 70's on March 29, 1976. It's the band's seventh album and features that familiar blend of country, rock and long, improvisational jams. The title track is a CDB classic. #saddletramp #charliedanielsband #southernrock #countryrock #rock #rockmusic #music #musicsky #musiciansky #charliedaniels

Songbird

Jesse Colin Young releases his 4th solo album on March 22, 1975. It's one of my favorite "folkie" albums from the 70's. Jesse's high-profile tour with Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young helped it become his highest-charting album. #jessecolinyoung #songbird #70smusic #music #musicsky #musiciansky #folk #folkrock #countryrock

Far Side Of The World

Released on March 19, 2002, Far Side of the World is Jimmy Buffett's 25th studio album and his first on his own record label, Mailboat Records. Many fans compare it to his 90's work like Fruitcakes and Banana Wind for its mix of humorous narratives and self-referential storytelling. Whatever .. it's pure Jimmy Buffett. #jimmybuffett #farsideoftheworld #y2kmusic #music #musicsky #musiciansky #countryrock #gulfandwestern
