Kris Kristofferson


A great song-writer. R.I.P.

Wow.  Another bummer.  He had a great career and it always appeared as if he was enjoying his life, and he did live a relatively long life.

A man who knew how to make the most of the time we are given.

Congratulations on a long and full life.

Rest in peace Kris.

I just listened to an album of his the FIRST TIME, and I was pleasantly surprised. What a strange coincidence.  

I knew his name, but never heard his voice, or I wasn't aware I have.

@grislybutter , he was in a lot of movies as well; he played the part of Billy The Kid in Pecinpah’s ’73 classic, Pat Garrett And Billy The Kid (which was always my favorite movie that he starred in). (Bob Dylan wrote and performed the sound track for that movie and also had a role.)

He (Kris Kristofferson) also performed and recorded with Johnny Cash, Waylon Jennings and Willie Nelson, and as such, they were The Highwaymen. I really enjoy the cover they did of Steve Earle’s The Devil’s Right hand, and I particularly like one of the two verses that Kris Kristofferson sang.
