About
Grievous Angel is the second solo album by American singer, songwriter, guitarist and pianist Gram Parson, compiled from summer 1973 sessions and released four months after his death in September 1973 from a morphine and alcohol overdose. It received great critical acclaim upon release, but failed to find commercial succe, a fate shared with his previous efforts solo and with The Flying Burrito Brother. The album peaked at number 195 on the Billboard chart. Despite its modest sale, it continues to be viewed as a successful example of the hybrid between country and rock and roll Parsons called "Cosmic American Music". In 2012, the album was ranked number 425 on Rolling Stone magazine's list of the 500 greatest albums of all time. .
