3 comments so far (post your own)Janis Joplin's posthumous hit, Me and Bobby McGee was actually a cover of a Kris Kristofferson song. The two were dating not too long before her death. Posted by Zuzu on Monday, 01/26/2015 @ 15:20pm |
Yeah. It's a no brainier for me. He sure doesn't have the best voice; and he isn't a guitar virtuoso either. He's mainly a songwriter, a really really good one. Posted by miT on Friday, 01/20/2023 @ 01:22am |
I thought a huge criteria for induction was the positive influence one had on Rock & Roll. There can be no doubt about that. It is incredible the lives that he has touched along the way and probably a huge reason that many are in the Hall now. I saw Kris at the 2009 Ann Arbor Folk Festival, his show was acoustic and solo. Wonderful to see and such a humble person too. Humility is a great quality he has too. Please Hall get with it!!! Way to go with Warren Zevon 2023!!!! I love the RR HOF and my 2 visits are memorable. Than you Posted by Doug Montgomery on Thursday, 05/4/2023 @ 11:08am |
