I don't remember where I have this from, just found it on my computer. I've tried and improved the very poor audio a bit, but couldn't improve the picture quality. Anyway it's worth a share. :-)
Kris's very hoarse voice sounds cute to me 😉
So young.... these two singing together was magical. THANK YOU for sharing.
Who could not love this ❤ How Rita looks at Kris! ♡♡♡
Thanks, Kris Kristofferson, Rita Coolidge and Johnny Cash!

@@kriskristofferson2831 Hi Kris, I hope you receive this email in reply to your email. I have been a fan of you for many many years. Some years ago I went to Brisbane Qld Australia to a concert of the Highway Men would have loved to do have met you but wasn't possible. As a matter of interest you & I are the same age. Love Narelle Dearden Aust.
Hello there Sandi , are you secretly Kris 🌹
And Jesus was a Capricorn album they both sing.
I've loved Kris and Rita since I was 22 or so I'm now 73
5-23-23 Kris has crossed over but he will never be forgotten I still play their albums.
Thanks so much for the video so you can not just hear the passion but see it❤
Absolutely beautiful
what great and fresh recommendation, beautiful song. I really enjoyed watching. thank you.
Kris Kristofferson and Rita Coolidge what a class act. I remember buying my first LP fifty years ago of The Silver Tongued Devil and I was hooked. I’m now 80 years of age and when I listen to Kris I’m back in my 30’s again. I have had the privilege of seeing him live a few times over here in Ireland and the ovation he got was unbelievable. Kris touches something in my soul with his not quite perfect voice and he brings the emotion out in his love songs probably all written from his life experiences and thats what I love about Kris 💚 God Bless him.🧤👏
Class act she bitched all the time about her lovers .. even Leon Russell ... KK couldn't sing for shit, but "back then" we didn't have as much over whelming talent vocal wise. He wrote life sh*t, what musician doesn't. Spoiled careers all around. Loved growing up in the 70's I personally don't need to know their personal crap. I bought records. Imagine you telling your personal story behind however you make money? I'm so bored with all this embellishing poor rock star diatribe.
you right
thank you for uploading these
i'm glad you dug this out of your computer this is the best version i've heard them do
nothing like the janis joplin version
It's better than Janis Joplins
Thank you for posting these. They are awesome! 🎶🎸
Yes thank you. Beautiful
Rita’s voice is spectacular
Wow thanks two favs.
awesome!! Mind-blowing! 😍💓 🎸⭐💐🌹
👍Busted flat in Baton Rouge, headin' for the trains,
Feelin' nearly faded as my jeans.
Bobby thumbed a diesel down just before it rained,
Took us all the way to New Orleans.
Took my harpoon out of my dirty red bandana
And was blowin' sad while Bobby sang the blues,
With them windshield wipers slappin' time and
Bobby clappin' hands we finally sang up every song
That driver knew.
Freedom's just another word for nothin' left to lose,
And nothin' ain't worth nothin' but it's free,
Feelin' good was easy, Lord, when Bobby sang the blues,
And buddy, that was good enough for me,
Good enough for me and my Bobby McGee.
From the coalmines of Kentucky to the California sun,
Bobby shared the secrets of my soul,
Standin' right beside me through everythin' I done,
And every night she kept me from the cold.
Then somewhere near Salinas, Lord, I let her slip away,
She was lookin' for the love I hope she'll find,
Well I'd trade all my tomorrows for a single yesterday,
Holdin' Bobby's body close to mine.
Freedom's just another word for nothin' left to lose,
And nothin' left was all she left to me,
Feelin' good was easy, Lord, when Bobby sang the blues,
And buddy, that was good enough for me.
Good enough for me and Bobby McGee.
Beautiful, thanks 🇷🇴🙋♥️😍🎶👏👏👏💃
@tony nicholas hello

One of my favorites God Bless you Kris your missed💞
Love Rita's song from James Bond called " All Time High ".. She does awesome job....
Greetings from one of your students 🤗
I think you're doing a good job!
One had the words, one had the voice. No better duo in music history.
Love Rita Coolidge and lovr Kris even more 😉
Love to hear Kris & Rita too bad they didn't stay together!!!
Wonderful.
Super, thanks😍💟
Thanks for posting this.

Beautiful!
Rita is so pretty good job
Love kris the way he was and still now even though he is old and grey just like me
Rita und Kris einfach nur toll!
Such a SAD line… I’d give all my tomorrows for a single yesterday…. Lucky people who don’t think this….😢❤
Kris is a legend
very good thanks
Best version ever ❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥
Ms Rita was so beautiful
when i was a boy in the 70/s i was very much in puppy love for her .
Love it!!!
The best times!
The world has changed so much.
I’m spidering rn, thanks for the vid!
Awesome!
They were great together !!! ❤
deux pommés traversent l'Amérique est tout est magique , une fille stoppe un diesel et chante le blues , tout est gratuit quand on n'a plus rien à perdre! la liberté !!!
Terrific bak up band!❤
Merci beaucoup les artistes c'est merveilleux 😘😍🤩👍💞💞💞💕💕💞
Hes pissed as. My main music man since 1969. Legend!
adore Kris 🥰
You can see the fires gone out between them. The eyes don't lie.
His voice really changed within a year. There's a duet on YT from 1973, and his voice is pristine. Here, his voice is gravelly. He's also obviously under the influence, which doesn't help. Her voice - 100%. You watch her eyes here. She's in love, but concerned.
Kris said that he left him when he was up to 1½ bottle a day. When she left he almost lost his mind. He picked up a new girl each night for a whole month...
I agree wholeheartedly. What a shame.
He has said many times, Rita was the only women he truly loved!! Her voice was amazing!!
yea, very sad to see this@@inishowenjohn
RC is just so pretty

Freedom - just another word
Rita Coolidge, I miss you!
Prbns...saúde a todos paz e luz.....Bravo.
He had a few before this performance😉
No so much a performer as a writer - that’s why.
Live Kris
LINDOSSS!!!🌹❤🌹❤🌹❤🌹💯💯💯💯
Brutal rendition from him...
This had to be around 1972.... in the early, early days!
No, that should be 1974. Checking the 1974 award show, it is correct 😉
digi.countrymusichalloffame.org/digital/collection/movingimage/id/1712
I'm wondering if one can get this digital collection somewhere?
@@biggestkkfan1506 Thanks for finding the correct date . . . .I was a fan back then, too!
I'm not so sure Kris knew what he was doing when he passed up Rita. I know from living long enough that I haven't made the best choices but you have to live with those choices until the end!
Well it's kind of funny when I first met her on that flight
What a fresh u tube recommendation
Man Kris's voice sound like he had too much booze and cigs before singing.
Love them when they were a couple- can’t believe her tragic death by her last husband. An angel
Uuuuuhhh… Rita Coolidge is still alive.
They sure bad something “special”. He never found that again with any other woman😜
👍🏼💖
Hes definitely high on something..😏💭 sniffing maybe? Perhaps drinking... haha I he watched that 1 time the rest of his life
Hehe? He’s an alcoholic. Nothin funny about that imho.
Lol she kept looking at him funny..he sucks as a singer,big time sucks.
Did they act as lovers Pat Garrett & Billy the Kid movie?
Yes, they did. Rita played Billy's girlfriend in the movie. Rita and Kris already were a couple back then when the movie was shot.
Kris was on something. Don't get me wrong, I love Kris's music but at one time he was out of control.
Regaço!
Not so sure....I think Rita looks a bit uncomfortable and Kris trying to out do her...louder etc. I don't think the performance looks like one between equal lovers to be honest....it's too edgy. Just imho of course.
the loud voice you hear when Kris and Rita are together at the mice for the refrain is a background singer, it's not Kris's voice.
This was early in their joint careers. The more albums they made together, THE BETTER their Harmonizing. I STILL LOVE THEM. Years, Later at their Farm Aid performance , you could sense they still had the Chemistry that they had established over the years together, before Their Split Up.
What a great composer! But he really can’t sing!
He has sounded lots better than this performance.
Janice Joplin's masterpiece. Kris wrote it.
Each to their own. But I don't think that anyone can beat janis joplin version. PINK does a great version also
He is drunk for sure.
It is cringe inducing to see a performance where 2 or more share the same mic.
