Amazon.com's review of "Sweetheart of the Rodeo": After Chris Hillman dragged new friend Gram Parsons into the Byrds, they made an album as close to a country masterpiece as a rock act could ever make. In fact, the only tunes better than the definitive covers here of songs by Bob Dylan, Guthrie, and the Louvin Brothers are Parsons's originals, especially the incomparable "Hickory Wind."
