Crazy that he was a helicopter pilot in Lafayette flying baws to and from the rigs offshore.

I don't know about terrible. He had his own voice. An acquired taste for some

Truly. His father was a high ranking military man that wanted his son to follow. Kris went his own way and made his own life. Super respected by me.

He’d travel to Austin or New Orleans on his off days to hang out with other musicians and perform where he could. It was also during this time he started writing Me and Bobby McGee

One of the best of all time. RIP.

Genius songwriter and pretty good actor.
Real surprise is that he lived to 88 with as hard a life as he lived.
