Gram Parsons died on this day in 1973. 26 years old.

1. For anyone in the Nashville area

Gram's friend, Phil Kaufman, will be doing a Q&A tonight at 7pm at the Great Escape on Charlotte Ave. For those who aren't familiar, Phil notoriously stole Gram's body and attempted to honor his wishes by giving him a Norse burial at Joshua Tree.

Thanks for this post! Love Gram

2. Would love to hear his stories. Here's photo where he's driving Parsons, Keith Richards, and others.

Big Byrds, Flying Burrito Brothers, and GP solo fan.

5. Fan here as well. Nice photo.

I shouldn't, but I do get Gram Parsons, Gene Parsons (no relation, I think) and Clarence White all jumbled up. Maybe because they were all mixed up writing/playing for the same/similar bands at about the same time and with Clarence White tragically passing just a few months earlier.

Nap time. Raffi doing his magic.
