Music reviews of G.P./Grievous Angel
Music Review: A couple of Grams
Rating: 5 Stars
Country is the word I mostly seem to run into whenever I make the mistake of reading anything about the truly great Gram Parsons and be that dang word as it may Mister Parsons still for my dosh sings the most goldurnably affecting songs in a way that's hard to get even slightly impatient with because of something so constraining as someone else's musical category--if some of these oddly catchy low-temperature honky-tonk heartbreakers early on on this jimdandy twofer here are country well then that's just gravy is my thinking. Just check out A Song for You as a for instance--a sad, lovely and memorable ballad bigger than any label I can think of. Same goes for Thousand-Dollar Wedding or Return of the Grievous Angel. Some of the vibe here is unmistakebly uptempo plugged-in Tulsa too by God. I've owned this down home double whammy since maybe the middle Nineties and every time I put it on--inexplicably only twice, maybe three times a year--I can't get over the summer twilight orange hue everything invariably starts to get splashed in. Getting purple here to be sure but Gram Parsons did record a certain eternal something that is worth one trip at least to his particular line of country. This one here's two of them too. See, Johnny Cash singing Peace in the Valley or Supper Time is one thing, two things probably, but GP/Grievous Angel from 1973/1974 is two uncommonly fine things rolled up nicely into one.

Title: GP/GRIEVOUS ANGEL
Street Release Date: 03/27/1990
Genre: ROCK/POP
On his two early-1970s solo albums, collected here on one disc, Gram Parson lends his fragile, aching tenor to music that's the definition of what he called "country soul." Neither of these titles is quite as strong as the work Parsons had previously done with the Byrds and the Flying Burrito Brothers, but with originals as great as "She" and "In My Hour of Darkness"--not to mention backing from Emmylou Harris and the core of Elvis's early-'70s band--both GP and Grievous Angel still stand as country-rock classics. --David Cantwell
