Kristofferson
Monument Records SLP18139 12" 33rpm LP 1967 (Canada)
Kristofferson is the first album by Kris Kristofferson, released in 1970 (see 1970 in music) on Monument Records.
Many of the songs on the album were already hits when covered by other artists. In spite of this the album was initially a commercial failure, although it managed to reach #10 on the country album charts.
It was re-released under the title Me & Bobby McGee in 1971 immediately following the success of Janis Joplin's cover of that song and the success of Kris Kristofferson's second album, The Silver Tongued Devil and I. It became a hit upon re-release. In 2001, the album was re-released on CD with four bonus tracks.
All songs by Kris Kristofferson except as noted.

A Note About Shipping To The U.S.
We are located in Canada, but have registered ourselves on eBay.com instead of eBay.ca because it gives us significantly better global exposure. The problem with this is that eBay wants us to charge shipping appropriate to US, where media mail and other options make for fairly reasonable delivery costs. We tried it for a while but ended up losing money on shipping or having to cancel the orders because we couldn't afford to ship for those rates. To manage this we have set the US shipping to run a calculator based on an American location (we chose Plattsburgh as fairly close) and charging according to UPS pricing. This avoids the cancellation issue, but appears to the buyer to be a prohibitive shipping cost and misrepresents the shipping as being only expedited. If you give us your postal code we will see if we can offer a more reasonable option, but generally we can get a single LP by air to most places in the continental US for $11, a few bucks less for ground.
Thanks for shopping Sir Helmitt,
