(Full transcript available please email richnetmedia@gmail.com 16,000 words.) OTTAWA, Canada - Canadian writer/musician Michael Bate had a chance encounter with Gram Parsons' tour bus in Boston, MA, in March 1973 - it would be Parsons’ last interview. (He died of an overdose six months later at the Joshua Tree Inn.) Gram is lucid and engaging throughout, addressing the rumours behind the authorship of The Rolling Stones’ song Wild Horses, his friendship with Keith Richards and Mick Jagger, The Byrds' celebrated Grand Old Opry appearance and why he split from the band. He touches upon his disdain for Lee Hazelwood and respect for Waylon Jennings - and of course, Emmylou Harris and the story behind how they met. Gram’s critique of 1970's Nashville is as prescient today as it was in ’73.
