Wow! You know some rock and roll trivia that I don't know! *stares in awe* I've gotta get a hold of that "Strange Death" book. I ravenously read every book about every musician I'm remotely interested in! (Obsessive aspie . . . )
That's just an article that came up when I did a search on Gram Parsons in reference to your posts in this thread. I didn't notice the first time I perused it, but it seems to be part of a web site called Byrd Watcher. I like music, but I'm sure I can't keep up with true fanatics like you and WhoAmI.

Oh, yeah, WhoAmI's taste in music is probably the opposite of mine, so we could teach a course together! Actually, we might want to see if techstepgenr8ion (sp?) might want to co-teach as well, since his area of expertise may not be shared by WhoAmI. Also, Frogman could teach a seminar on gear, and JohnsHopkins could do a seminar on music journalism (I think it's JohnsHopkins who's a music writer).
I'll try to track down that website, but I try to resist reading too many music websites and focus on books instead. Both tend to be full of gossip of dubious origin - but at least books are a little less so than websites, and there are some good books out there. Of course blogs and reviews on the web are a different matter entirely because they are inherently subjective.
