He's probably not well known at all in Canada.<br /><br />Clarissa--Problem is that the guys who tried to cremate him didn't do it right and the police got there before they could get the ashes to distribute. What was left of the body was still taken to be buried in Metarie (New Orleans), Louisiana.<br /><br />Yvonne - - Congrats on breaking 200 followers. Actually Gram Parsons may have a larger following in Britain than the U.S.-- wouldn't surprise me.<br /><br />Alex -- Check out the movie <i>Grand Theft Parsons</i>--it's a pretty entertaining account of what happened.<br /><br />L. Diane -- Gram Parsons would certainly not be directly related to Alan since Parsons was actually the name of Gram's stepfather and not his birth name.<br /><br />Ocean Girl-- He wasn't anything like Jason Mraz, that's for sure.Arlee Birdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11663942782929929334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-149224757183756660.post-71869034364199808882010-06-04T05:14:10.377-07:002010-06-04T05:14:10.377-07:00Was he in any way related to Alan Parsons?Was he in any way related to Alan Parsons?L.
