Kristofferson's first two albums have some absolutely wonderful songs on them--in addition to the ones mentioned above. Of course there's "Me and Bobby McGee," but there's also "When I Loved Her," "The Pilgrim," "Jodie and the Kid," "The Silver Tongued Devil and I," "Sunday Morning Coming Down," "The Other Side of Nowhere," and so on. With good, spare country outlaw arrangements. Many of them made up the sound track of Kristofferson's first movie, "Cisco Pike."
