Such a talent.

I actually knew him as an actor first with Convoy, Songwriter, Amerika and Blade.

Later I discovered his 70's albums, which I still love playing, especially the Quadraphonic ones.

R.I.P. Kris

I didn’t know he was married to Rita Coolidge. Overall, married three times and had eight children. Now, that’s a baby making machine!

 

[Matt Wilson]

Loved him. And that quad box shown above is a must-have.

Great actor, musician and... helicopter pilot!

I'm going to pull out my DVD copy of "Cisco Pike" and maybe listen to "Border Lord" after that!

Kris and Rita are name checked in the song Lonesome LA Cowboy. The early 70s must have been a fun time to be a young adult in Los Angeles. Seems like he had a great run. RIP.
