Free Music Notes for Highwayman
Free Music Review: Great CD!
Hit: 5 Stars
A relative of mine drove with this music, (on cassette), to Texas from Florida over last year holiday season. They returned listening to the same music.
It was a bittersweet time as they had just lost their spouse and this was the first holiday without them.
They had both loved this music.
Anyway, recently, this relative of mine was diagnosed with cancer. Their one request was to somehow find a copy of this cassette in CD form. Amazon had it and at a very reasonable price. So, I bought it and sent it to them.
Testing is long and tedious, stressful and frightening, but en route home from the tests that determined how far along the cancer was and what treatment would be used, my relative cranked up this CD and just took it all in.
It is classic because all the greats of country are on it: Johnny Cash, Kris Kristofferson, Waylon Jennings and Willie Nelson. Excellent music soothes the soul.
And again, at an excellent price.
Highwayman Poster
The myth of the American West--lawless lands, resolute heroes--takes on a grave, elegiac quality on this first, and best, collaboration from Waylon Jennings, Willie Nelson, Johnny Cash, and Kris Kristofferson. There's little bravado here, just a sense of ticking time, of frontiers lost, cowboys singing their last songs. In the end, Highwayman works because it fuses mythic, serious material with the artists' own legendary personas and well-aged voices. Lesser lights would be lucky to muddle through Jimmy Webb's epic title track; these four cagey desperados make every fantastic image believable. If Chips Moman surrounds them with less than subtle layers of guitars, keyboards, and drums, he does update vintage progressive country in a suitably cosmic but rugged fashion. Romantic legends and production values notwithstanding, it's the tough, wise singing here that's the real draw. --Roy KastenCountry Music CDs
