And he told me he just couldn't find it anywhere. My dad had really been wanting this CD for a long time. So, I was glad that I was able to find it for him; he's really enjoyed having it.
When they got together, it could only be a great collaboration and this is. Of course, my favorite is the title song, Highwayman. Four of the Best country stars ever. I sure do miss Johnny.
It had been awhile since i heard the Highwaymen and after listening to this CD went ahead and ordered a DVD. I was thankful i actually got to enjoy one of their concerts, there will never be a dupilcate
That's actually the reason I bought it but as I was doing other things in the house I decided to just listen to the whole album. With the exception of one or two of the songs, most of it is really good.
It's an interesting song. Guess they see something in him that I don't.
I've never been a fan of Kris Kristofferson(sp)and wondered why the others included him into their songs. Really listen to the songs, especially like desperado's waiting for a train.
Don't just listen to the hit "Highwayman". It has other songs on it that I've never heard before but decided to put on my IPOD anyway.
He's just your normal average joe while the other three are top of the line guys.
As with "The Traveling Willburys" it is the original studio recordings of the members alone that will live on, not their couple of attempts to sell themselves as a supergroup. There are certain performances by each of these men that I NEVER get tired of hearing, but put these superstars together and the result itself seems a bit tired. I love Kris, Willie, Johnny and Waylon, and I liked several of their collaborations when they were fresh recordings. Hearing this collection was pleasant enough, but somehow the sum of the parts is not the equal of the works of the individual members. Their work as a group was a gimmick, and it shows.
