Music reviews of Hot Burritos! The Flying Burrito Bros. Anthology 1969-1972
Music Review: A perfect album, a good album, and some extras
Rating: 5 Stars
Gilded Palace of Sin is an amazing country rock album from the late 60s, at a time when magic was in the air and The Byrds, The Band, and the Rolling Stones were also putting out great rootsy records. One of the most unique things about the album were the 2 soul songs that singer Gram Parsons covered beautifully that went a long way towards fusing all the American music genres that Parsons loved.
This anthology also includes Burrito Deluxe, which has only 4 Parsons-written songs and no soul covers, but more songs by future Eagle Bernie Leadon. The best songs are Parson's "Older Guys" which has a catchy R & B style "ooooooooh" chorus and Leadon's "God's Own Singer". It ends with a good rendition of "Wild Horses" that can't quite compete with the amazing guitar work and impressive vocal of the Stones' original. The best thing about the Burrito's Wild Horses is a piano solo by Leon Russel, a session musician who would go on to become a legend of country and rock and roll. The first disc also includes the terrific single "Train Song".
The second disc includes some Gram Parsons songs scraped together from several anthologies, though none of them are written by him and they aren't as good as the first disc songs. Then there's the Burrito's third album, made after Gram Parsons was fired and lacking any real oomph. There's nothing horrible about it, but it doesn't have much energy either. I don't listen to the second disc much, but it makes a decent extra.
Description of Hot Burritos! The Flying Burrito Bros. Anthology 1969-1972
This overview of the heyday of the flagship band of 1970s country-rock illustrates why the genre became such a force in its time--and why it flagged as the decade progressed. Its ascent can be attributed to the vision and charisma of band cofounder Gram Parsons. Parsons's legend has grown to such a point that one must question its validity. Was he that crucial in shaping the genre? The answer is provided through the course of the first disc and a solid portion of the second in this smartly assembled double set. Parsons and partner Chris Hillman brought together influences ranging from Stax soul to the Everly Brothers to Hank Williams to create a sound that is inventive, inviting, clever, and a little weird. Parsons's two Burrito albums--1969's landmark The Gilded Palace of Sin and its patchwork follow-up, Burrito Deluxe--are here in their entirety, as are some Gram-era oddities. The handful of post-Parsons tracks that weigh down disc 2 augur country-rock's demise. Hillman and new recruit Rick Roberts create pleasant enough music that simply lacks the flair Parsons brought to nearly everything he recorded in his 26 years. --Steven StolderGeneral CDs
