I suppose we could follow this up with McCartney’s The Back Seat Of My Car.

@EinsteinsHund

That’s excellent! If if there’s a song called “In The Trunk”, we can complete the cycle.

Under My Wheels by Alice Cooper?

Neither do I! I have done some research in the past and still haven’t found the original recording or who did it in the first place.

Here is video from one of the two composers of the song, Walter Egan, where he talks about how Gram Parsons and Emmylou Harris came to record it. I can find no record of The Flying Burrito Brothers having recorded it. The other composer is Tom Guidera.

Blue Skies - by Irving Berlin (recorded by many)
Hurricane* - Bob Dylan

• Yes, I know it’s not actually about a hurricane. The question is about song titles.

The Hard Luck of Walter Egan:

However, in 1972 country rock icons Gram Parsons and Emmylou Harris opted to record “Hearts of Fire,” a song Egan wrote, for Parsons’ Grievous Angel. Scheduled for release in 1973, Angel was delayed when Parsons died of a drug overdose. The album would ultimately be regarded as one of the finest ever made, but it sold poorly and it lead to only a handful of session work gigs for Egan.

The Hard Luck of Walter Egan:

Thank you very much, much appreciated. I never had the idea to search for the songwriter, I had the impression that “Hearts On Fire” was another older and classic country duet Gram and Emmylou covered.
