He may have changed his mind by now, he posted this 8 years ago!

appreciated.
No he wasnt in the Highwaymen, perhaps your getting confused with an 1985 country album (released in the same year as 'Highwayman')
he did (called 'Old Ways') with Kris Kristofferson, Willie Nelson & Waylon Jennings- all 3 of which were in The Highwaymen along with Johnny Cash.


The song 'Highwayman' is a fantastic song- good lyrics in:

I was a highwayman. Along the coach roads I did ride
With sword and pistol by my side
Many a young maid lost her baubles to my trade
Many a soldier shed his lifeblood on my blade
The bastards hung me in the spring of twenty-five
But I am still alive.

Although it wasnt originally written by these guys (Jimmy Webb originally wrote it) they bring it to life and I like how they all sing a verse each; acting out the parts if you like.

I personally love Willie Nelson & Johnny Cash, I think Waylon Jennings has a bit of a dodgy voice though lol. Ive not heard any Kris Kristofferson yet but I like his voice from what Ive heard from the 'Highwayman' album.

Other good songs include: 'Desperados Waiting For A Train', 'Welfare Line', 'The Last Cowboy Song', 'Deportee (Plane Wreck At Los Gatos) (a Woody Guthrie cover)' & 'The Twentieth Century Is Almost Over'.

I've listened to

Everybody Knows This is Nowhere
After the Gold Rush
Harvest
Rust Never Sleeps

Going through his albums... Can't get into Everybody Knows This is Nowhere. After the Gold Rush is CLASS. Harvest is disappointing, but has some good songs like 'Old Man'. Rust Never Sleeps is equally CLASS.

A lot of people don't like his voice, but that's what I like the most.

Can handle him in small doses.

Although I have to admit I enjoyed After The Goldrush a lot more than I thought I would.
