βGood to get a letter from home!β
Terry-who-used-to-be-from-Strabane recalls a story about a Kris Kristofferson letter.
βI have some information on Kris Kristofferson,β says Terry-who-used-to-be-from-Strabane. βWhen he left the army his mother wrote a letter to him telling him never to make contact with the family again. His father was a high ranking officer in the air force and he was an embarrassment to the family. One day Johnny Cash was in the recording studio where Kris was working as a janitor, and he handed the letter to Johnny Cash. Cash read it. And with a wry smile he turned to Kris and said, "Good to get a letter from home."
With music from Hermanβs Hermits, John Prine and Amanda Shires, The Hollies, and more.
