The Gilded Palace of Sin is an all out Cosmic classic. Burritto Deluxe great but not as great as Palace. This remastered cd sounds absolutely stunning. Much better than the vinyl reissue i purchased a while ago. Sit back and chill with Gram, Chris and co.

For many years now I have owned the "twofer" CD from the late, great Gram Parsons which consists of 'GP' and 'Grievous Angel'. I love this CD so much I had to replace it because my original copy had become worn out. Whilst doing so I came across a seller selling the "twofer" by the Flying Burrito Brothers which contains their two Gram Parsons inspired albums 'The Gilded Palace of Sin' and 'Burrito Deluxe'. Never having heard these two albums in full - only tracks here and there - I thought I would take a gamble and put my bid in. Am I pleased that I won the CD? - Yes, oh yes, oh yes I am! The album is everything I was hoping for, great songs, great lyrics, and music to die for! This is Country, but not the traditional type, this is Rock, but not the Rolling Stones! It is pure Country Rock, full of heartache and hope, broken dreams and lost loves etc etc etc. These are the tunes that influenced the Eagles (Bernie Leadon helped form the group after leaving the Burritos), and all the Country Rock bands that followed. All have their place in the canon of music, but none will ever match the originals. The big question left by the two albums on this 'twofer' and the Gram Parsons one is what would Gram be doing now if he had not succumbed to the Rock 'n' Roll life style and die so young. I would like to think that he would still be making great music and producing the next generation of Country Rock musicians, the ones that are all influenced by the great Flying Burrito Brothers. If you are still wondering what on earth I am jabbering on about go and treat yourself, look out for a copy of this great CD, buy it, stick it in your player and let the magic happen! Keep on rocking!Read full review
