"Scientist's Say, It'll All Wash Away"

I was listening to Gram Parsons for the five thousandth time this weekend when I realized that I never want to stop listening to this. Everything is so heart felt and sincere, like some psychedelic working mans tears draped over me, a pestering conscience of transcendentalism. I had heard The Flying Burrito Brothers before but had not had the chance to feel such a direct correlation and attachment with their music. I have no idea what the music is supposed to mean? I don't try to analyze music anymore anyways. I really want to be profound right now, but instead I think I'll just get myself a white leather jacket and sew marijuana leaves on it and trip out. On Gram's Wikipedia page it says that Keith and Mick stole the song "Honky Tonk Women" from Gram. Later the song would develop into "Country Honk" on the album "Let It Bleed", to which Gram was not credited authorship of any kind. Wikipedia is a big bag of nuts anyways, so who knows?
