Kris Kristofferson’s first album of the '80s and his last for Monument is a rawboned modern country record. The singer’s divorce from Rita Coolidge had just been finalized, and much of To the Bone deals with the fallout. For the most part, the album takes a softer attitude than Kristofferson’s previous rumination on breakup, 1976’s Surreal Thing. “I'm back being me again and you're back being you,” he sings in “Nobody Loves Anybody Anymore.” “Stronger for the loving war that we've been through.” On the other hand, “The Devil to Pay” is downright vicious: “You can't wait to let them take you to the bottom / And I'm gettin' tired of standin' in your way / But when you hit the ground don't come lookin' around / For the pieces of the love you threw away / That's just part of the high cost you're leavin' and you still got the devil to pay.” Muscle Shoals producer Norbert Putnam brings the album a wiry, urgent edge, and the raw, confessional rock ’n’ roll of “Star-Crossed,” “Snakebit” and “Maybe You Heard” is kin to contemporaneous albums by Bob Dylan and Richard Thompson.
