[Anonymous]Nov 5, 2006Kris and his guitar. No fluff. Honest. Gruff. Music at its purest. Find out why Johnny Cash called him the best song writer in Nashville. Kristofferson shines and cements his status as a legend as he rides off into the sunset.

RustinTMar 15, 2006The songs on This Old Road share the same structural simplicity as the classics he's wriitten and so many artists have covered, but Kristofferson is singing with such a deep authenticity, an austere growling intensity, that the effect is haunting and, at times, chilling. This is a masterful work, rich with rebellion, insight, and melancholy.

Kristofferson is dead-on here, razor-sharp, economical in his language, and to the bone in his insight.
-
His most consistently compelling release in decades.

BillboardAs a singer, Kristofferson remains a hell of an actor, but there is a lot to love about this record. [11 Mar 2006]
