An explosive singer-songwriter of the 1970s Kristofferson, who died this weekend aged 88, scored massive hits with ‘Me and Bobby McGee’ and ‘Help Me Make It Through the Night’.

His towering, bearded image made him something of a film star of that period.

    More than a prety face and a nice voice. He was very good in “A Star is born”. Unforgatable for Peckinpah and scary in “Alfredo Garcia”.
