    Gram Parsons: Dark Death of the Cosmic Cowboy Few musicians have started a genre—but that's what Gram Parsons did. He is the reigning pioneer of country rock—a huge influence on bands that came after, most notably, The Eagles. However, fate pays little attention to achievement, and Gram's life is clouded with a gothic darkness, culminating in the sordid details of his demise. Dr. Clarke takes you back in time to Joshua Tree. It's 1973. Let the tale unfold.

    Rock Trios: When Three is Not a Crowd Usually a rock band has at least four members. Why would anyone settle for just three?

    The Real Roll of Sex in Rock Like birds of a feather, sex and rock go together. But why? You don't find this corporeal attachment in jazz or classical. Why rock? Dr. Clarke, diplomatically and with an unnerving sense of purpose, confronts the facts and figures straight on. Tune in. Turn on. But don't drop out.
