    I’m finding myself listening to Kris more than any other artists. His lyrics are so real, they send shivers of emotions through my soul. The best therapy that I have ever experienced.

    This song was the first that came to mind when I heard he had passed away.

    My family and I found Kris, at a bistro in Maryland on the water, then bought his albam in 1972, playing it all summer long, ⌚🩵

    I've loved Kris for over 40 years and was lucky enough to meet him in Kansas City , Mo in 1973-74 and he bought me a drink in a bar and I got to talk to him and learned he was a great, friendly person as well as the great songwriter and musician I'd just seen at the KC concert!

      I knew the Kristoffersons very very casually. I first met Kris Kristoferrson late one night in New Zealand. Very humble, very intelligent, man. And I LOVED Heaven's Gate, stuff the critics!

    • @rogerraymondunplugged
      @rogerraymondunplugged 2 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      I’ve listened to almost all of his early performances. There’s probably some truth about his singing then, but his voice has definitely matured and gained gravitas over the years. I’ve been learning his songs and also to play the guitar these past months. I’m dreadful and I won’t ever make the top ten, but it comes from my soul and I don’t really care what people think. Those who can’t sing, criticise. So, don’t fret. He is fabulous. My favourite is Sunday Morning, Coming Down. Enjoy. God bless.

    My small attempt to spread love and truth is to be found on the playlist called "John borylo what I believe" on TH-cam. I felt I needed to do something and I have a very diverse comprehension of music. My prayers are with the whole world now at this time of catastrophe.
