I hoped I could get my thoughts to you When you performed at Charleston, SC but couldn’t quite get through the crowd. I’m glad I wrote down what I wanted to say: After being in physical pain for 50 years, my doctors often talk about getting to the “other side of the pain.” Pain is pain, I always thought, until one day I lay down with your music near my ear. As I listened to the words I started singing along in my mind. The longer I related to the words, the more the pain moved aside. I became angry when the music stopped and I became aware of the pain creeping back. What a joy to realize that I have found the way to the other side of my pain. Please realize that your music is more than a CD to some of us. We feel it so strongly and I thank you for helping me get to the other side of the pain. I hope someday to get close enough to thank you in person. I am very selfish and want the music to continue.

The man is larger then life … Saw him a couple of times, he brought everyone to tears.
For me as a singer/ songwriter he’s a huge influence and without a doubt one of the greatest around .
I just hope there will be another european tour in store .

I just got his new album for my birthday.
I had the pleasure of meeting him at his hotel after a show one time, I was staying at the same one.
I actually helped him carry his bags out to his tour bus. It was one of the best nights of my life.

My mama used to spin KK vinyls as I was a kid… I grew up listening to him, knowing the words to all of his songs. I got to see the Highwaymen back in ‘93, I believe… I freaking love those guys, together and on their own, and am so jealous you got this interview. Way to go!

I first saw Kris and Rita in 1974 and I was hooked. I also saw him in concert in Kingston,NY and he sang a heartbreaking song about El Salvador. I happened to be with a friend who was from there and I remember her sitting in her seat with tears streaming down her face. I begged her to tell him what she felt but she was too embarrassed. He’s an absolute poet and a genius.

Thank God he is going to write his autobiography, I have been waiting for many years for this. His music has touched me like no other since 1971. I hope I am still around when he writes the book.

KK doesn’t always drink beer, but when he does, he drinks Dos Equis.

He was also the coolest Billy The Kid of a ll time in Peckinpah’s beautiful movie (although a bit chubby and old for the part). I wish he would have contributed with Dylan on the Soundtrack (one of my favorite of Bob’s records)

I love Kris Kristofferson and his songs.
He is such a great songwriter and a rightous dude.
The only singer/songwriter/performer that tops Kris on my list is
WILLIE NELSON.
My dream is to sit down someday in Charley’s restaurant in Hanna, Hawaii and buy Willie, Kris, and Leon Russell dinner.
Leon is third on my list and Rita Coolidge is fourth.
I have been a big fan since 1972 when I heard all four of these GREATS.
Now that I am retired, I get to travel to hear their concerts.
