This week Danny and Tyler chat about country-rock pioneers, The Flying Burrito Brothers with standup, author, and drummer, Sam Tallent! (@SamTallent, Running the Light, Chubby Behemoth Podcast)Sam talks to the boys about the lyrical versatility of “Sin City”, FBB’s traceable influence on artists like The Eagles, Orville Peck, and The Flaming Lips, and why he should have played football for Harvard. “Sin City,” a semi-apocalyptic semi-waltz that happens to be the Flying Burrito Brothers’ signature song, is from the group’s 1969 debut album (an album which somehow has still not sold enough to be certified gold, despite its influence).Call it “Cosmic American Music” or call it “Country with a better backbeat,” but thanks to Gram Parsons and Chris Hillman’s infusion of psychedelic rock and blues (with some help from Sneaky Pete!), we have some of the most enduring country songs ever recorded.Even though the Flying Burrito Brothers only have one highly acclaimed album...we gotta lotta recs for ya (including from Sam's dad!):Hot Burrito #1 Images of Me Do Right Woman Dark End of the Street Wild Horses Juanita Six Days on the Road Dim Lights Together Again Do You Know How It Feels Wheels My Uncle God’s Favorite Singer If You Gotta Go Hot Burrito #2 Follow the link to keep up with which songs are being added to our Ultimate Country Playlist on Spotify, now including “Sin City”:  <a href="https://tinyurl.com/takethispodplaylist">https://tinyurl.com/takethispodplaylist</a> And now on TIDAL! <a href="https://t.co/MHEvOz2DOA">https://t.co/MHEvOz2DOA</a> <a href="https://www.patreon.com/takethispod">You can now support us on PATREON!</a> <a href="https://linktr.ee/takethispodandshoveit">For other playlists, ways to listen, and more, click here!</a>Check out Sam Tallent’s work here: https://www.samtallent.com  <a href="https://www.patreon.com/takethispod">Check out our Patreon!</a> <a href="https://www.bonfire.com/store/take-this-pod-and-shove-it/">Check out our new merch store!</a> Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/takethispodandshoveit/">@TakeThisPodandShoveIt</a> <a href="https://linktr.ee/takethispodandshoveit">For everything else click HERE!</a> Want to create your own great podcast?
