This was one of their better songs IMO

I agree, just like Frank Zappa wasn't able to make commercial success, but the music is pleasing to listen to.
Back in those days, there was a lot of collaboration between individual in groups, Gram Parsons, Chris Hillman.
They weren't out to make a commercial success, they were out to make great music, which they did.
Sweetheart of the Rodeo is an excellent album by Parsons.
