The Gilded Palace of Sin

A writer, disk jockey, and music store and label owner in Ithaca, New York, Proehl describes how the band Flying Burrito Brothers rose from the ruins of the Byrds at the end of the sixties long enough to create the pioneering country rock album The Gilded Palace of Sin. Central to his account is the collaboration between Gram Parsons and Chris Hillman from South Africa to Altamount. Annotation ©2009 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
