Return of the Highwayman
Metro has an interesting interview with Kris posted, asking him everything from why he takes so much time between record releases to what his favorite film experiences were. Here's his response to the former, which suggests 'This Old Road' was recorded rather quickly:
"I was involved with different things and there was no great demand for records. The last record was very encouraging. I hadn’t had that great of a response in 30 years. And I thought it was just a demo act; I cut it in an hour and a half, and they left it pretty bare."

I sat here tonight and thought of Kris, watched a video where he called John Trudell and Willie Nelson his heroes who have never leg him down. Of course, the humility of those words means that Kris is one of us. Every word he's ever written is straight from the heart... God I love that man like a brother. I am waiting until his new album comes out like a lost book of the bible has been found.
Well hell... when you going to post about Kris's upcoming album with the song Closer To The Bone on it? lol Keep it real brother. You know, some people look at KRis like a hero. I saw him in concert and I kept checking my pulse. I just think he's a deep soul like me and you. So don't give up... keep fighting... keep beleiving.
Ain't it kinda funny that people who are heroes can't stand the word.
Here is a link to an article I wrote about Kris Kristofferson that was published in The Austin Chronicle. I thought your readers might enjoy it.
