The Highwaymen - Highwayman
Johnny Cash, Waylon Jennings, Willie Nelson and Kris Kristofferson were all together in Switzerland doing a television special and decided that they should do a project together. In 1984, while the four were recording, Marty Stuart played the song for Johnny Cash, saying that it would be perfect for them, four verses, four souls, and four of them. Glen Campbell then played the song to all four of them, and the quartet had the name for their new supergroup, The Highwaymen, the name of their first album, and the name of their first single.
