Liner Notes
Kris Kristofferson arrived at Gilley's already carrying one of the heaviest songwriting catalogs in American music, a body of work that had put artists like Johnny Cash, Janis Joplin, and Roger Miller on the charts before he ever stepped in front of a crowd himself. Caught here in the thick of his touring years, this is the rare document that lets the songs breathe in the setting they were built for: a Texas honky-tonk, live and loud.
Recorded live on September 15, 1981, Live At Gilley's captures Kris Kristofferson at a time in his career where he and his band were firing on all cylinders. Kristofferson was with a full band out of the road that featured Stephen Bruton, Donnie Fritts and Billy Swan. On this night, the band stopped by Gilley's Honkytonk in Pasadena, Texas to deliver a one in a lifetime performance featuring the hits, "Me And Bobby McGee", "The Pilgrim" and "Sunday Mornin' Comin' Down."
