There's something so immensely satisfying when you find favorite artists doing some of their finest work later in life. Johnny Cash is an obviously example, Willie Nelson, too--and based on what we've heard so far from Kris Kristofferson 's brand-new album, Closer To The Bone, no question you can add him to the list (OK, he was already there, thanks to his beautiful 2006 album This Old Road).

The album dropped earlier this month--here's a taste in the form of a sweet music video (click the image below to watch):
