The esteemed singer-songwriter behind “Me and Bobby McGee” and dozens of other hits was also memorable on the big screen in ‘Alice Doesn’t Live Here Anymore’ and ‘A Star Is Born.’

Incredible talent. Not much of a singer, but a HELL of a songwriter.
All my rowdy friends done rowdied on down.
All the great song writers were mediocre singers. I’m talkin’: John Prine, Steve Goodman, Townes Van Zandt, Leonard Cohen, Paul Simon, Neil Young, even Willie Nelson I would put in this category.
A weird exception is Joni Mitchell. IMHO one of the best singers of all time, and an a-list writer too.
Agree 👍
