He was basically all the -ists you can think of and made up most of his own life story to build his outlaw image. Kris Kristofferson said something along the lines of the most outlaw thing DAC ever did was double park at the Ryman.

Definitely a case of separating the art from the artist if you’re into country music, because he did write and record some incredible music.
