In the late 60 s, in a time when country music and musicians were seen as the furthest thing from hip or cool, Gram Parsons and a few others began to embrace and incorporate country music into the rock and roll realm. Once, when asked if he was trying to play rock or country or soul or what, Gram responded that it s all Cosmic American Music. Since then, the music world has never been the same. From Parson s vision, a whole new style of music was born and its popularity is still evident today.

I thought if I ever put a 60-minute setlist together, as the artists featured on WUMB’s Guest Mix show do, that song would have to be on it.
