Kris Kristofferson Album: “Live from Austin, Texas [DVD]”

There is nothing like kicking back, hitting play, and then letting the sonorous voice of Kris Kristofferson wash over you while you indulge in a moment of forever... I first listened to "Me and Bobby Mcgee" when it was performed by Gordon Lightfoot. Soon after, I discovered the Kristofferson version and avidly set about collecting every version possible: Janis Joplin (swoon), the Grateful Dead (oh, man, what a guitar lick), Waylon Jennings...but there is only one Kris Kristofferson. This DVD is an essential part of any Kristofferson collection. In fact, there is not a disappointing note or moment on it. Its companion DVDs are also excellent (all the Austin concerts), but this DVD is exceptional.

I have seen Kris Kristofferson in the 80's immediately I was taken back to those times. The songs are great! All his greatest hits are there along with some lesser known songs that may wow you. Kris with his Border Lords puts on a high energy show. If you enjoy Kristofferson, you will definitely want to have this item.

One disappointment to note, the concert looks like it was filmed with one camera and rarely moved its focus away from Kris. I would have liked to have seen some views of the audience reacting to the concert.

this dvd of my all time favorite was wonderful. Good sound quality and good picture. I loved it and wish i had purchsed it sooner.
