RITA COOLIDGE – 74

Rita Coolidge was a famous recording artist who peaked during the 70s and 80s era. She received two Grammy Awards with her husband-to-be Kris Kristofferson. James Bond theme song “All-Time High, (Your Love Keeps Lifting Me) Higher and Higher” and “We’re All Alone” was her most memorable hits.

Rita Coolidge’s relationship with Kris resulted in a marriage in 1973. Everything appeared to be in the right place for the two until they decided to call their lawyers and settle for a divorce in 1980. We recently heard her incredible voice again on her 2018 album Safe In The Arms of Time. She may have accomplished a lot during her era, but it’s refreshing to hear her dominate the sound waves to his date. Her songs are still loved and played on the radio. Aside from thriving in the music industry, she also managed to write and publish a book.
