Favorite live albums

<p>“Did you know the Genesis catalog is supposed to be reissued in expanded surround sound versions this year?”</p>

<p>No I didn’t. Hey, that’s awesome!</p>

<p>‘lunatic’ is what hardcore PG fans call themselves.</p>

<p>Speaking of live classic rock and the Ivies, I stumbled across this one on YouTube:</p>

<p><a href=“http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BITiY8M_oDo&mode=related&search=[/url]”>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BITiY8M_oDo&mode=related&search=&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>It’s a 1969 Flying Burritto Brothers music video featuring Chris Hilman (of the Byrds) in the blue suit and ex-Harvard student Gram Parsons in the white suit (decorated with marijuna leaves, mushrooms, sugar cubes, and pills).</p>

<p>Easy to see why Emmylou Harris (and every other woman) fell head over heals for the guy. </p>

<p>I just got a fantastic CD: “The Return of the Grievous Angel: A Tribute to Gram Parsons” with all kinds of interesting acts recording Parsons songs (The Pretenders, Cowboy Junkies, Sheryl Crow/Emmylou, Steve Earle, Wilco, Whiskeytown, and on and on. What a songwriter.</p>

<p>Partied himself to death at age 26. You know you might be partying a little too hard when you are staying at Keith Richards’ house and he kicks you out for being too much of a degenerate party animal.</p>
