Comment:

The lines famously quoted from Kris Kristofferson's "The Pilgrim, Chapter 33" in the movie [i]Taxi Driver[/i] — about a man who's a poet, a picker, a prophet, and more — were written about somebody else, but they sure work well for describing the renegade troubadour himself. Kris Kristofferson led the way for a legion of artists, from Guy Clark to Waylon Jennings, who tore down the walls of country music convention in the '70s. Along the way, he formed a hit-making duo with Rita Coolidge, ran with the big dogs in outlaw-country dream team the Highwaymen, and, oh yeah, became a full-fledged movie star — [i]A Star Is Born[/i], [i]Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore[/i], et al. But even though his biggest hits came when artists like Janis Joplin and Sammi Smith cut his work, the master craftsman's own recordings — gathered here in all their gritty glory — offer up a sound that comes straight from the [i]soul[/i] of Kristofferson — maverick, activist, ladies' man, barroom bard, legend.
