That is weird. The Edge said the same thing in It Might Get Loud (2008). Now you got me wondering if the Edge got that from Sonic Youth.

I felt the Rolling Stones was trying carry on the spirit of Gram Parsons in the way they wrote and played their Country songs. If anything it was Gram Parsons who killed his idols first, and the Stones were paying homage to him. Even if the Stones took the piss out of Country by having fun with it, who cares? It isn't like no one ever written a goofy Country song in all the history of Country music.
