Kris Kristofferson, the award-winning country singer and actor has died aged 88.
Yes, I was looking to see if anyone else had posted. Seen here in a photo my friend Jeff took of him:

Sigh. Another fixture I thought would be around forever (illogically) gone.
A great actor. Rather than a chameleon, I sort of felt his roles were so well played because he basically played 80% himself and fine tuned the other 20% rather than cook up a new character from scratch.

Agreed, I knew him more for acting than a singer/songwriter
Yes, I read this today. I guess 88 isn’t a bad age tho. I’ve always enjoyed his music and his acting.
But really tho, he was a folk singer, not really a country singer. Not that that matters, I suppose …

Sad news. Only recently did I finally watch the film Heaven’s Gate. A much better film than its reputation might suggest, and KK was brilliant in it.
