This is from Atlantic records press release: "THE AUSTIN SESSIONS" sees this
three-time Grammy Award-winner performing all-new renditions of such
classics as "Sunday Morning Coming Down," "Help Me Make It Through The
Night," and of course, "Me And Bobby McGee," backed by the cream of
Nashville and Austin's session players including John Willis (guitars),
Stephen Bruton
(mandolin), Paul Franklin (steel guitar), Larry Paxton (bass), Jim Cox
(organ, piano, accordian), Joe Spivey (fiddle), and Mike Baird (drums). In
addition, Kristofferson's unmistakably rough-hewn vocals are supported by
harmonies from such famous fans as Steve Earle, Jackson Browne, Matreca
Berg, Vince Gill, Mark Knopfler, Catie Curtis, and Atlantic recording artist
Mark Cohn.

Nope, all I can say is keep checking at CD now. They will list the titles and
let you listen to 30 seconds of 4 or 5 of them.

too bad he can't just lip sync his original stuff when he had a bit of a
voice...
great songwriter, but he should really get a vocal coach who can work w/him
on his now very limited range

It was an OK article, but nothing much new. I was expecting to read
about the album, but it was hardly mentioned at all.
