Didn't Gram Parsons play organ and sing BVs on Steve's album Rock Salt and
Nails? If he did and I believe that to be the case, you may want to ask SY
about his opinion on his own career and how it has figured in the
development of "alt.country" music in the last thirty years. He is a great
singer and songwriter and I believe that in the Unjust Musical Events
Dictionary his picture appears alongside the words Great and Underrated Like
You Wouldn't Believe.
I didn't think this Steve Young was the football player either - I had him
pegged as the sensitive Buddhist type singer/ songwriter.
Love his work and yours, Jeff!
