"Hickory Wind" is a song written by country rock pioneer Gram Parsons and former International Submarine Band member Bob Buchanan.
 The song was written on a train ride the pair took from Florida to Los Angeles in early 1968, and first appeared on The Byrds' "Sweetheart of the Rodeo" album.
 Despite Buchanan's input, "Hickory Wind" is generally considered to be Parsons' signature song.
 Parsons' decision to play "Hickory Wind" instead of the planned Merle Haggard cover "Life in Prison" during The Byrds' performance at the "Grand Ole Opry" on March 15, 1968 "pissed off the country music establishment" and stunned Opry regulars to such an extent that the song is now considered essential to Parsons' legend.
Spyboy is a 1998 live album by Emmylou Harris and her backing band, Spyboy, which she formed for a tour to perform songs from her 1995 career-redefining album, "Wrecking Ball".
 Taking a stripped-down approach, Harris is backed by a trio comprising country singer-songwriter Buddy Miller on guitar and New Orleans musicians Daryl Johnson on bass and Brady Blade on drums.
 Along with songs from "Wrecking Ball", such as "Where Will I Be" and "Deeper Well", Harris performs other songs from earlier in her career, such as "Born to Run" from "Cimarron", "Love Hurts", which she first performed with Gram Parsons, "I Ain't Living Long Like This" from "Quarter Moon in a Ten Cent Town" and her ode to Parsons, "Boulder to Birmingham", from her 1975 debut album, "Pieces of the Sky".
 The album is currently out of print.
Conmemoritivo: A Tribute to Gram Parsons is an album of covers of singer-songwriter Gram Parsons' songs released by Rhino in 1993.
 It features 17 tracks recorded by artists from the indie rock and Americana music scenes of the time, including Uncle Tupelo, Vic Chesnutt, Bob Mould, Victoria Williams, The Mekons and R.E.M.'s Peter Buck.
James Victor Chesnutt (November 12, 1964 – December 25, 2009) was an American singer-songwriter from Athens, Georgia.
 His first album, "Little", was released in 1990, but his breakthrough to commercial success didn't come until 1996 with the release of "", a charity record of alternative artists covering his songs.
Sleepless Nights is a posthumous compilation album by Gram Parsons.
 Though credited to Parsons and his former band The Flying Burrito Brothers, the band appear on only nine of the album's twelve tracks.
 The album features no original songs; the majority are covers of vintage country songs with the exception of The Rolling Stones' song "Honky Tonk Women".
Sweetheart of the Rodeo is the sixth album by American rock band the Byrds and was released on August 30, 1968 on Columbia Records ("see" 1968 in music).
 Recorded with the addition of country rock pioneer Gram Parsons, it was influential as the first major country rock album by an established act and represented a stylistic move away from the psychedelic rock of the band's previous LP, "The Notorious Byrd Brothers".
 The Byrds had occasionally experimented with country music on their four previous albums, but "Sweetheart of the Rodeo" represented their fullest immersion into the genre thus far.
 The album was also responsible for bringing Gram Parsons, who had joined the Byrds prior to the recording of the album, to the attention of a mainstream rock audience for the first time.
 Thus, the album can be seen as an important chapter in Parsons' personal and musical crusade to make country music fashionable for a young audience.
Crazy Eyes is the fifth studio album by the American country rock band Poco.
 The album pays homage to Gram Parsons, as Richie Furay sings both the title track, which he wrote in honor of Parsons, and one of Parsons' own compositions, "Brass Buttons".
 The album was released just four days before Parsons' death on 19 September 1973.
GP is American singer-songwriter Gram Parsons' debut solo album.
 It was originally released in a gatefold sleeve in 1973.
 "GP" received critical acclaim upon release, but failed to reach the "Billboard" charts.
 In the original Rolling Stone review, which individually covered both "GP" and its follow-up, "Grievous Angel", the reviewer praises Parsons' vocals and delivery paraphrasing Gram's lyrics, "boy, but he sure can sing".
"Boulder to Birmingham" is a track from the 1975 album "Pieces of the Sky" by Emmylou Harris.
 The song was written by Harris and Bill Danoff.
 It has served as something of a signature tune for the artist and recounts her feelings of grief in the years following the death of country rock star and mentor Gram Parsons.
 Early in her career, Harris toured with Gram Parsons and sang on his 1973 album "GP".
 The song is known for its chorus "I would rock my soul in the bosom of Abraham/I would hold my life in his saving grace/I would walk all the way from Boulder to Birmingham/If I thought I could see, I could see your face."
Safe at Home is a 1968 album by country rock group The International Submarine Band, led by the then-unknown 21-year-old Gram Parsons.
 The group's only album release, "Safe at Home" featured four of Parsons' original compositions rounded out by six covers of classic country and rock and roll songs made famous by the likes of Johnny Cash, Elvis Presley, Merle Haggard, and Hank Snow.
 Described as "hippie and hillbilly in equal measure", the album helped to forge the burgeoning country rock movement of the late 1960s and early 1970s.
