Description
This is a digitally remastered German import version of the definitive Flying Burrito Brothers package. A now-famous CD twofer that combines the band's two albums recorded with their founder, the near-mythic country-rock icon Gram Parsons. Parsons would leave the band shortly after the recording of BURRITO DELUXE, the band's second album, but not before cutting stone-cold alt-country classics such as "Hot Burrito #1," "Wheels," "Sin City, " and working through gorgeous covers of songs by Dan Penn and the Rolling Stones. This is a must-have for any fan of country music, alternative or otherwise.
Personnel: Chris Hillman (vocals, mandolin); Gram Parsons (vocals, piano, keyboards); Bernie Leadon (guitar, dobro); Sneeky Pete (steel guitar); Byron Berline (fiddle); Buddy Childers (cornet, flugelhorn); Tommy Johnson (tuba); Chris Ethridge, Leon Russell (piano); Sam Goldstein, Popeye Phillips, Fast Eddie Hoh, Jon Corneal, Michael Clarke (drums); Frank Blanco (percussion).
Audio Remasterer: Roger Wake.
Liner Note Author: Sid Griffin.
This two-fer from country-rock legends the Flying Burrito Brothers includes 1969's Gilded Palace of Sin and 1970's Burrito Deluxe on a single disc. Both albums dutifully represent the band at its peak, making it a great entry point for newbies and a hassle-free treat for longtime fans. ~ James Christopher Monger
