Forgotten? Not in certain circles. I know some people who think he put the moon, stars, and sun in the sky. I'm a big fan of Parsons' music, but he gets WAY TOO MUCH CREDIT for the country-rock thing. Here's an example: A good friend of mine
talked to Chris Hillman once about Parsons. Hillman said, "Gram wrote about six or seven good songs...but Gene Clark wrote dozens and dozens of great songs."

Being a big Keith Richards fan I was always aware that he spent time with Gram Parsons and I kind of thought, oh well, whatever. This year I started downloading music by Gram Parsons and it is so good. Why is he all but forgotten, his dead flowers is incredible and hour of darkness, brings tears to my eyes..........Keith, you should have acknowledged him a little more over the years,,,,,,,,try it, you'll like it..........
