I really enjoy Gram Parsons songs . . .

, in fact I often enjoy covers of his songs more than the original. Raul Malo's version of Hot Burrito #1 is one of the my favorite songs. Tribute albums very often disappoint, Return of the Grievous Angel does not. It is an Emmylou Harris project, and she really matches the songs to people who get the most out of those songs.

Norah Jones is not on the album, but this rendition of She is really quite good.
