Country rock · In the late 1960s some rock musicians returned to the roots of American music; in 1968 The Byrds recorded Sweetheart of the Rodeo with Gram Parsons. The Rolling Stones recorded Wild Horses with country influence from Gram Parsons, and Eagles from Los Angeles blended rock with country. Hotel California (1977) ends with two guitars playing a solo together.
