The Flying Burrito Bros Vinyl Records

The Flying Burrito Bros were a pioneering country rock band that was founded in 1968 in Los Angeles, California. The band was formed by former Byrds members Chris Hillman and Gram Parsons, alongside Chris Ethridge, Sneaky Pete Kleinow and Michael Clarke. The group is best known for their signature mix of country, rock and blues that they developed in their music.

Their standout albums include The Gilded Palace of Sin (1969) and Burrito Deluxe (1970). The Gilded Palace of Sin was the group's first album, and it featured classic songs such as "Sin City" and "Christine's Tune (Devil in Disguise)". Burrito Deluxe was the band's second album, and it contained their most popular single, "Wild Horses".

An interesting fact about the Flying Burrito Bros is that their name was inspired by a Taco Bell advertisement. The ad used the phrase "flying burrito", which the band felt encapsulated their blend of musical styles.
