GRAM PARSONS TRIBUTE

De zanger Gram Parsons (1946-1973) verwierf bekendheid door zijn optredens met The Byrds en The Flying Burrito Brothers. Zijn invloed op andere popmusici, zoals The Byrds, Tom Petty en Elvis Costello, is enorm. The Rolling Stones schreven voor en over hem de ballade "Wild Horses'. Zijn met verhalen omgeven dood in 1973 in de Amerikaanse Mojave Desert maakte hem tot een legende.
Dit is een eerbetoon van verschillende artiesten aan Gram.



Steve Earl Dave Rawlings Gillian Welsch (Sin City)

De Amerikaanse zanger en songschrijver Gram Parsons werd in november 1946 in Winter Haven in Florida geboren als Ingram Cecil Connor III. Gram Parsons' muzikale leven begon op de middelbare school met het bandje Pacers, waarin ook Jim Stafford en Roland Kent Lavoie speelden. In 1963 vond Parsons aansluiting bij de folkband Shilos. De groep verhuisde naar New York, waar Gram Parsons de groep in 1965 verliet voor een studie aan het Harvard College. Deze studie hield hij echter al snel na zijn inschrijving voor gezien


Ryan Adams & EmmyLou Harris (Grievous Angel)

In New York richtte Gram Parsons de Submarine Band met John Nuese (gitaar), Ian Dunlop (bas) en Mickey Gauvin (drums). De groep verhuisde al snel naar de westkust, waar twee singles werden opgenomen. Met de nieuwelingen Bob Buchanan (gitaar) en Jon Corneal (drums) nam Parsons "Safe at home" op. Dit album wordt tegenwoordig belangrijk bevonden voor de ontwikkeling van de country-rock. Toen "Safe at home" in april 1968 uitkwam, had Gram Parsons de Submarine Band al ingeruild voor The Byrds.



Dave Rawlings Gillian Welsh EmmyLou Harris (Hickory Wind)

Met The Byrds nam Gram Parsons het countryalbum "Sweetheart of the rodeo" op. De invloed van Gram Parsons op de totstandkoming van dit album was groot. The Byrds sloegen met "Sweetheart of the rodeo" een nieuwe weg in, zoals bijvoorbeeld te horen is in de ballade "Hickory wind". Toen de Byrds concerten in Zuid-Afrika wilden geven, verliet Gram Parsons The Byrds uit protest.
Gram Parsons bracht enkele maanden door in gezelschap van de Rolling Stones en richtte een jaar later met Chris Hillman (gitaar), Sneaky Pete Kleinow (steelgitaar), Chris Ethridge (bas) de Flying Burrito Brothers op.


Kathleen Edwards John Doe (We'll Sweep Out Ashes in the Morning)

Op "The gilded palace of sin" (1969) staat "Hot burrito #1", een van de beste songs van Graham Parsons. Het tweede album "Burrito deluxe" (1970) kende minder hoogtepunten dan het debuutalbum van Flying Burrito Brothers. Gram Parsons kwam vaak niet opdagen en nam, mede door overdadig drugsgebruik, de verplichtingen van de Flying Burrito Brothers niet erg serieus. In april 1970 werd hij door Hillman uit de groep gezet.



Norah Jones (She)

Met de begeleidingsband van Elvis Presley en de toen nog onbekende zangeres Emmylou Harris nam Gram Parsons in 1972 het album "GP" (1972) op. Hierna ging Parsons op tournee met Jock Bartley (gitaar), Neil Flanz (steelgitaar), Kyle Tullis (bas) en N.D. Smart II (drums). Inmiddels hadden zijn drank- en drugsgebruik al grote vormen aangenomen, waardoor hij vaak niet of slecht in staat was om een fatsoenlijk optreden te verzorgen. Ook werden nog opnamen gemaakt, inclusief "Love hurts" en "Hearts on fire" voor een tweede album, dat als "Grievous Angel" (1973) verscheen.


Keith Richards Norah Jones (Love Hurts)

Gram Parsons overleed in september 1973 bij Joshua Tree in Californië. Zijn lichaam werd door vrienden gestolen en gecremeerd in de woestijn. Een legende was geboren.

CCR - Night Time Is The Right Time

                                    John Fogerty - Doug Clifford - Tom Fogerty - Stu Cooke

John Fogerty, Doug Clifford, and Stu Cook (all born in 1945) met at Portola Junior High School in El Cerrito, California. Calling themselves The Blue Velvets, the trio began playing instrumentals and "juke box standards",^[9] as well as backing Fogerty's older brother Tom at live gigs and in the recording studio. Tom soon joined the band, and in 1964 they signed with Fantasy Records, an independent jazz label in San Francisco that had released Cast Your Fate to the Wind, a national hit for jazz pianist Vince Guaraldi. The record's success was the subject of a National Educational Television special, which prompted budding songwriter John Fogerty to contact the label.^[10]
Band roles changed during this period. Stu Cook switched from piano to bass guitar and Tom Fogerty from lead vocals to rhythm guitar; John became the band's lead vocalist and primary songwriter. In Tom Fogerty's words: "I could sing, but John had a sound!"

                 Night Time Is The Right Time - (Royal Albert Hall 4/14/70)

Wild Turkey - Brother

In the distant past, somewhere in 1973, I saw this band as the support act for Roxy Music. It was one of those legendary night concerts in De Doelen (Rotterdam) that were given there at the time. Roxy Music was great, they were still at the beginning of their career, but I also have good memories of this band. The real breakthrough never came, probably due to the many band changes.

 

Wild Turkey - Brother Live in London, BBC In Concert 1973. The line-up during this recording: Glen Cornick - bass, Gary Pickford Hopkins - vocals, guitar, Jeff Jones - drums, Mick Dyche - slide guitar, guitar, Bernie Marsden - guitar, Steve Gurl - piano, synth

After Glen Cornick left Jethro Tull, he formed the band Wild Turkey in 1971, initially with: Graham Williams (guitar), Alan 'Tweke' Lewis (guitar), John "Pugwash" Weathers (ex-Pete Brown & Piblokto !) (drums) and Gary Pickford-Hopkins (ex-Eyes of Blue) on vocals; but Weathers and Williams soon left the band to join Graham Bond's Magick, before Wild Turkey had recorded any material. Their replacements were Jon Blackmore (guitar and vocals) and Jeff Jones (ex-Man) on (drums). Together with Cornick, Tweke and Gary they recorded Wild Turkey's first album Battle "Hymn". In 1972 Mick Dyche, replaced Jon Blackmore. Steve Gurl joined on keyboards and the band recorded the second album "Turkey". In 1974, Lewis joined the band "Man" and Wild Turkey continued with a guitarist for the time being until Bernie Marsden joined the band. Kevin Currie replaced Jones on drums. However, when singer Gary Pickford-Hopkins left the band to work with Rick Wakeman, it marked the end of the band in 1974.

 
 Glen Cornick

In 1996 the band reunited with Glenn Cornick, Gary Pickford Hopkins and Alan Tweke Lewis. A new album was also released "The Stealer Of Years"
