About Kristofferson

Kristofferson is the first album by Kris Kristofferson, released in April 1970 on Monument Records. It was re-released under the title Me and Bobby McGee in 1971 immediately following the success of Janis Joplin's interpretation of that song and the success of Kris Kristofferson's second album, The Silver Tongued Devil and I. It became a hit upon re-release. In 2001, the album was re-released on CD with four bonus tracks. Many of the songs on the album were already hits as they had been recorded by other artists when Kristofferson was primarily known as a songwriter. In spite of this, the album was initially a commercial disappointment, although it reached number 10 on the country album charts.
