The Flying Burrito Brothers is the third album by the country rock group The Flying Burrito Brothers, released in 1971. Before recording sessions for the album began, Gram Parsons would leave the band for a solo career, leaving Chris Hillman and "Sneaky" Pete Kleinow to carry on. In Parsons' place, the band hired a young unknown musician named Rick Roberts. His influence is felt all over the album from his multiple songwriting credits to his vocals.
