      Coolidge was married to Kris Kristofferson from 1973 to 1980.[1] Their daughter and her only child, Casey Kristofferson (also a musician), was born in 1974. Their marriage deteriorated after she miscarried her second child in 1977. In her memoir, Delta Lady, Coolidge described her marriage to Kristofferson as volatile due to his alcoholism and infidelity.[11] She revealed he was also emotionally abusive and would belittle her talent.[11] When they divorced she did not ask him for anything.[11] However, in 2016 Coolidge told People that she and Kristofferson still shared a bond.[19]

Because of Leon's tune, Delta Lady ,right ? I saw him in Tulsa in 1970,with his first albums came out. He did make an album ,i think, with Bolen or something.
