Highwayman Full Album...The Highwaymen 1985..ladislav&zivanovic..Highwayman (The Highwaymen album)Highwayman is the first studio album released by country supergroup The Highwaymen, comprising Kris Kristofferson, Johnny Cash, Waylon Jennings and Willie Nelson. Highwayman, released through Columbia Records in 1985, was the group's first and most successful album.Recording and composition
Highwayman, consisting of ten tracks, was released as a follow-up to the successful single of the same name and the title track of the album itself. \"Highwayman\", a Jimmy Webb cover, hit the top of the country charts and was followed up by the Top 20 hit \"Desperados Waiting for a Train\", whose original version was released by Guy Clark. The album was entirely produced by Chips Moman. Marty Stuart also played guitar and mandolin on the sessions. From the first playback there was magic in their collective voices, and, with Moman's encouragement, the group, which they called The Highwaymen, assembled some other songs that spoke to the nostalgic appeal of these four veteran talents coming together. Nelson later admitted, \"You wouldn't think our four uneven voices would blend. But they did. They fit together like a jigsaw puzzle.\"The version of \"Big River\" on this album is significant because it includes a Jennings-sung verse that Cash omitted from the original recording. The album is also notable for the song \"The Twentieth Century Is Almost Over,\" written by Steve Goodman, who had died of leukaemia the year before, and John Prine, who Kristofferson in particular had been a fan and supporter of for years.The group wasn't named \"The Highwaymen\" from the beginning. On their first two albums, they are credited as \"Nelson, Jennings, Cash, Kristofferson\". The official name which came to be widely recognized began to be used only in later years, and their last collaborative effort, The Road Goes on Forever, was already credited to \"The Highwaymen\".Track listing
