Book Reviews of Flying Burrito Brothers' The Gilded Palace of Sin (33 1/3)
Book Review: So You Thought You Knew Country
Summary: 5 Stars
This concise book should come with a cd copy of "The Gilded Palace of Sin," then you could listen to and read about an album which, although shunned at the time, proved to be one of the most influential records in popular music's history. Hillman, Parsons, Chris Etheridge and Sneeky Pete Kleinow completely abandoned the popular trends of the late sixties, and looked back to the purity and essence of American Country Music. While looking back, they brought their modern talents to the table: Hillman and Parsons could sing and harmonize like country Everly Brothers, and Sneeky Pete tore the cover off of what was normal pedal steel playing, he created waves, almost symphony like, and then could just as easily play the best sounding honky-tonk music you ever heard. There's rock overtones in their music for sure, but the influences of country, r & b, and gospel bring it all back home. Reading this book will help you to understand just how audacious a project this was, and how brilliantly the Burrito's performed. It's the story of one of those magic moments when artist's follow their visions and lay down something for the ages! Don't miss it.
