what yr did me and bobby mcgee song come out
Kris Kristofferson released this in 1970 on his first album, Kristofferson. A year later, when it became a hit for Joplin, Kristofferson's album was re-released as Me And Bobby McGee to take advantage of the song's new popularity. This was released after Joplin died of a heroin overdose. Her death gave the album a lot of attention, and Pearl went to #1.
