Kris Kristofferson

The Austin Session

2017-02-27

Another unique album from Kris Kristofferson. Lots of Special Guests on this one like Jackson Browne, Steve Earle, Vince Gill, Alison Krauss, and Mark Knopfler. There are also a couple of country covers from modern day tunes. A pretty neat cover of "Me And Bobby McGee," "Help Me Make It Through The Night," and "Sunday Morning Coming Down." I would have to say it is a little too country overall for me, but the cover songs and special guests were pretty cool. There really wasn't a track which i thought stood out overall.
