Heard this story before, but never with the details fleshed out so thoroughly. Glad to know that the "corpseknappers" got off with a slap on the wrist. Their hearts were in the right place, anyway. Anyone that crazy and dedicated deserves to be let off. Things were sure different 50 years ago, cops were more like Barney Fife, and airport employees didn't want to give you a full body cavity search to buy a plane ticket. Too bad things have come to such a pass as they have now. Thanks for being a bright spot in my day.
Gram was 26 when he died. He was born November 5th 1946. Died September 19th 1973. Less than 2 months shy of the 27 club. He was incredible and could have made so much incredible music had he lived.
Thanks for clarifying. The narrator says 23 at 2:15, the 26 just a few moments later. I went back to the beginning of the video to hear his birth year ('46), but then thought, "Wait, if they gave two different ages, why should I put any faith in the year they claimed he was born?" Rather than dive down a rabbit hole, I came here to the comments, & here you are! Thanks again! ✌🏼
I believe . After watching this documentary . It's a good thing there are correct funerals . Or there would be countless stories like this , littering the country ... As if murder wasn't enough . OOf !
People are so horrible. What a shame. He was handsome and talented. There are a lot of things that stick with you in life. He could still be here, making great music. 😢
@@FactsVerse Depends on the mood I'm in. The Gilded Palace of Sin with the Burritos is an amazing album. Love his duets with Emmylou. As far as his compositions, Brass Buttons and $1000 Wedding are high up my list. Even love his old folk stuff. Three years ago I didn't know who he was!
As old as I am ever since I was a little kid I always heard if there ever was a zombie apocalypse or nuclear war the only two things that would survive would be Keith Richards and cockroaches LOL
It wasn't a crime back then to "steal a body" but, it was illegal to steal a casket. Also destruction of it. I mean, it wasn't that weird for the 70's. My father is Glen D. Hardin who was a good friend of Grams, and musical director of Grievous Angel. BTW, Honky Tonk Woman was really Grams song. Gram was a sweet guy, who made bad decisions, sometimes. We miss him too.
There is a movie called “. Grand Theft Parsons” starring Johnny Knoxville that depicts the story. I’ve stayed in room 8 at the Joshua Tree Inn (the room Gram died in) twice. It has become a shrine to Gram and people from all over the world make the pilgrimage and leave cd’s of themselves playing Grams music. The Inn leaves a cd player in room 8 so you can listen to them. My first visit there we were loaned guitars that were hanging in the lobby for the duration of our stay. Please visit the Joshua Tree Inn if you’re ever driving from LA to Las Vegas. Robert Plant stayed there often as do many other celebrities. There is a ghost in the room though…❤️😎

I mean it's kind of crazy but it's still kind of brought a tear to my eye, No that takes one h*** of a friend.. But he did exactly what he wanted him to do and that's what a true friendship do dude crazy crazy
I have to say the most surprising thing of all was that there was no law against nabbing a corpse But cheers to buddies who will go above and beyond to see that your last wishes are granted Amen to that. Truly a crazy story thank you for sharing
It is beautiful in the High Desert. I understand why he would be drawn to the desert. The drunk driving sucks but those are some true friends right there.
Graham hated the term "country rock" and preferred to call his sound "Cosmic American Music." Keith Richards has sweet memories of him, saying it would have been impossible for the Stones to have recorded the STICKY FINGERS album (1971) without Graham's musical influence.
Good video. I'm a big fan of Gram, who just missed the "27 Club", and who resurrected the "Country Sound". The earlier funeral, in which Gram and Kaufman made the pact, was undoubtedly for "Clarence White", another extremely important pioneer in Country Music. Clarence, along with Doc Watson, pretty much invented "flat-picking", turning the acoustic guitar into a lead instrument. Clarence was also the "conceptual inventor" of the "b-bender", enabling a Telecaster to sound like a pedal steel (The "mechanic inventor", who built the "b-bender", was drummer for the Byrds, Gene Parsons, no relation to Gram.). Between Gram and Clarence, those three months in 1973, saw a HUGE LOSS, in Musical Pioneering, still highly present in today's Music. Clarence's b-bender Telecaster, is still being played by Marty Stuart, maybe the top active Country Performer.
they honored his wishes, which is doing something right not wrong. It's commendable that they risked their lives and freedom to do what was asked of them
His band th e international sub band played my town bayonne nj they were on the bill with the jive 5 and the wmca good guys radio date was July 1966 they played wild thing I didn't know who he was as he was nottta celeb at thre time
Great video about one of my favorite Rock'n Roll stories . Actually, theres a 2003 movie Grand Theft Parsons, about the pact , Johnny Knoxwille rocked as Phil Kaufman , I recommend it for every fan .
I think the cop letting the drive out after he hit the wall was the most surprising. But I'm glad they did what he wanted and gave him the funeral he wanted. I stole my dad's ashes so I could spread them in the redwoods as he wanted. So yes I glad they did it
Perhaps the greatest story in rock history, next to the bobby fuller mafia murder. Anybody worth their salt knows these events because theyre so weird but true! 👍
You mentioned he died at 23 and 26. How old was he? I'm surprised they got away stealing the body and burning it just before the cops arrived. You day that happened just before his 27th birthday so I gues he died at 26.
I can't remember the name of it at the moment, but there is a movie about the theft and burning. It's actually a funny, but sweet pic. Johnny Knoxville played Kaufman, and Michael Shannon played the hearse driver. There was a line that went something like "100 ft of open doors, and you had to hit the wall next to them!"
Wow, RUclips commercial are getting weird. A mortuary stretcher for sale.. just what everyone needs .I thought it couldn't get stranger, I was wrong.. I enjoy your content, but the commercials are getting out of hand.. Thanks for your time and hard work on these stories.
I never knew Keith Richards was a close friend of his. And I thought about that time Keith Richards was heavy into drugs and alcohol as well. This may have been a telling moment for Mr Richards. As he is still alive last I knew.
How do you grow up in a loving household if your mother suffers from depression, your parents are both alcoholics, your father kills himself and your mother dies of excessive drinking? So did he die at 23 or 26?
HE SAID LOVING NOT THAT IT WAS DISFUNCTIONAL, ABUSIVE SAD ASS!!! UR PARENTS CAN BOTH HAVE FUCKD UP SHIT GOIN ON AND STILL SHOW LUV & CARE ING TOWARD THER KIDDOS!!! BLEEV ME ITS POSSIBLE

That's cool they honored his wishes but the way they did it was kinda messed up. Pouring gasoline over his body in the casket and throwing a match on him...then hauling ass real quick after 😕 distasteful.

@@karenannepawlak1465 People are on youtube for thumbs up / likes, subscriptions and monetizations. This video does not have Gram's permission and I really doubt it has his estate's permission. Musicians wish to be known for their music and for their private lives to remain private.

Ahh, the 70s, we all had long hair, bell bottoms, did drugs. Been stoned everyday for 52+ years. Buried a lotta hippies, smoked a lotta weed in cemeteries.
No, not "all" and not "absolutely"; there is no way either of you could have proof of that. I lived through all the 1970s, got haircuts as my parents wished, and never did drugs in my life. I'd like to see videos where you are always respectful to the subjects and din't try to exploit and profit off them without their (or their estate's if deceased) permission and where you correct and naturally want to apologize for your errors including contradicting yourself on this singer's age. As of this writing, you've also got the apostrophe in the wrong place in his name in the title, making his name incorrect. His name was Gram Parsons, not Gram Parson. The apostrophe should be after the second "s."

Caitlin Doughty, on her channel Ask A Mortician, relates this story very well, including a visit to the inn.
The fact that they were able to "steal Gram's body," out of the airport and fulfill Graham's wishes is extremely surprising.

True, one of our craziest yet intriguing videos as well. Are you a fan of Gram?
That sort of friendship is surprising.
It was an imperfect cremation. There were still enough remains to inter in the Garden Of Memories Cemetery in Metairie, LA.

Evidently enough times to have a funeral and a cremation. Sadly, during the cremation he made a complete ash out of himself.
