Ralph J Gleason Brings You Inside the April 6, 1969 Avalon Show with Gram Parsons and The Flying Burrito Brothers, Aum and the Grateful Dead

Here is some beautiful Ralph J Gleason writing from 50 years ago this weekend



Gram Parsons would play Long Black Limousine more then 8 months before the Dead add it to the mix.  Wonder if Burritos wore Nudie suits. But the highlight is the Death Don't and Ralph's writing.
As usual the real write up is here http://lostlivedead.blogspot.com/2010/03/april-4-6-1969-avalon-ballroom-san.html  Long Lost Dead.  This is just some bells and whistles.

There is a great Owsley connection I am tracking down
