Chris Hillman on Gram Parsons, David Crosby, and the release of a live Desert Rose Band album
Wednesday, 15 October, 2025

Chris Hillman, the original bassist of The Byrds, comes on the Goldmine Podcast to talk to staff contributor Lee Zimmerman. As a frequent collaborator with guitarist Gram Parsons and the Flying Burrito Brothers, Hillman became a key figure in the development of country rock. His work with not only The Byrds and the Flying Burrito Brothers, but also Manassas and the Desert Rose Band, helped define the Americana genre. On this podcast episode, Hillman discusses the past — especially his relationships with Parsons and David Crosby — and what he is up to in the present (the release of a limited-edition, double live album by The Desert Rose Band titled Live at The Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum).
