"Sin City" first appeared on The Flying Burrito Brothers' 1969 debut The Gilded Palace of Sin.
Like The Eagles' later "Hotel California," it offers a Sodom and Gomorrah-ish take on the record industry.
Over at the Los Angeles Times, Geoff Boucher has a great article on the making of the song, and how it reflected on the bad music-industry experiences of Gram Parsons and Chris Hillman.
