Info zu Border Lord (Remaster)

Border Lord was a crucial album for Kris Kristofferson. After five years of scuffling in Nashville, he had broken through in 1970-1971 largely because of a series of song hits recorded by others, though his first two albums, Kristofferson (aka Me and Bobby McGee) and The Silver Tongued Devil and I had enjoyed healthy sales, the latter even spawning a Top 40 pop hit in 'Loving Her Was Easier (Than Anything I'll Ever Do Again).' But he needed to consolidate that success and even increase it, especially as a recording artist.

„When this was first released in 1972, Kris Kristofferson was one of the most popular young songwriters in the country, having written hits for Janis Joplin ('Me and Bobby McGee'), Sammi Smith ('Help Me Make It Through the Night'), and Johnny Cash ('Sunday Morning Coming Down'). Those songs don't appear here, but 'Josie,' 'Kiss the World Goodbye,' and 'Somebody Nobody Knows' are almost as good. Kristofferson is backed by a capable band of Nashville cats (including Pete Drake, Donnie Fritts, and Kenny Buttrey), and his gruff singing--often a dubious proposition--is fairly palatable this time around. Kristofferson fans shouldn't be without this one.“ (Dan Epstein, AMG)
