Sep 19, 2017 10:08

Influential Rock-Country musician, Gram Parsons* died on Sept. 19, 1973.


His coffin would be hauled out into the desert where his friends set his body on fire.  What a fun little story this is: The Death of Gram Parsons.

* Not Graham Parker (& the Rumour); also not Allen Parsons (Project). He is Gram Parsons. Possibly he was named after a gram of cocaine.
