Kris Kristofferson has always identified himself first and foremost as a writer, and true writers know that what works best is giving a piece of themselves to the listener. With his latest album, This Old Road, Kristofferson lays a chunk of his own soul on every track.
The first recording of new material by country/folk legend Kristofferson in 11 years, this beautifully sparse recording puts an emphasis on his fine lyrics and distinctive voice by distinctly featuring Kristofferson, his guitar, and harmonica. The album is so intimate it makes the listener feel as if they are sitting in Kristofferson's living room while he picks and sings just for them. Kristofferson is dead-on here, razor-sharp, economical in his language, and to the bone in his insight.
