Sings Kristofferson

Willie Nelson

A master songwriter interpreting a peer. Sparse, nylon-string arrangements that turn Kristofferson's cinematic anthems into intimate, late-night confessions.

1979 · Columbia

A weary, wise, and deeply intimate reflection on life's messy transitions.

Moments Worth Listening For
The extended seven-minute sprawl of Sunday Mornin' Comin' Down where the harmonica feels like a physical ache.
The way Willie's guitar, Trigger, provides a percussive, woody counterpoint to the weary vocal on The Pilgrim.
The intimate, almost whispered delivery of the final verse in For the Good Times.
