The Byrds with Gram Parsons– Callin’ Me Home

 


The Byrds with Gram Parsons – Callin’ Me Home

« The Classic 1968 Rome Broadcast »

The Piper Club, Rome, Italy - May 1968

Why did they have to add "with Gram Parsons"? Was he the leader?

The same fast-running recording first released in 1989 on yellow vinyl by Bulldog Records in Italy.

Thanks to Zippy for pointing me to this recent download only CD.

A better sounding version is available, as broadcast by a Dutch radio station in the 90s.

"They " did the same thing with the Burritos Avalon release. He was only part of the band, not a featured member. Still waiting for that new Rome LP. The artwork was dreadful,: hopefully they used the better sounding recording at least. They should have had RB do the artwork !
