Kris Kristofferson

What a great song writer. Even though he wrote great songs that other artist borrowed and made famous, I always felt that the best versions were of him singing them in that stressed strained voice of his. So sad to think that his parents disowned him when he decided to move to Nashville and pursue his music dream and not continue with his military career. RIP and enjoy the music

I admired his courage.

Sister Sinead

And I think he supported the Dixie Chicks during their tribulation. 

Two stances at odds with "country".
