"Sleepless Nights" is a posthumous compilation album by Gram Parsons. There are no Parson's original songs on this album, the majority being vintage country songs with the exception of Honky Tonk Women by Jagger/Richards.Some of the highest praise for the album is due to the inclusion of three tracks featuring Emmylou Harris and omitted from the 1973 album "Grievous Angel"; "Sleepless Nights" (allegedly the original title for the "Grievous Angel" album), "The Angels Rejoiced in Heaven Last Night" and "Brand New Heartache". The majority of the tracks are from a much earlier period and recorded during Parson's time with The Flying Burrito Brothers, shortly before his exit from the group. These songs were not previously released and are not as highly regarded by many critics, Rolling Stone refers to them as "sluggish and dispirited".
