That's my opinion too, especially with the song Highwayman! When Waylon sings: I'm a sailor... that's where the most magical moment begins!! Pure goosebumps!!
Trying to keep the music and spirit alive still, but you guys will always live forever no matter what, I won't stop playing these songs till I'm old and grey, 18 now til as long as I'm alive, It would have been an amazing experience to see these guys perform in my life time!
Freaking awesome! Loved Johnny doing "Live Forever" solo. What's with Kris's hair? Looks like he's wearing a rug. Some serious guns on that dude, though. Willie rules. Think how many cigarettes have been smoked amongst that group.
They were all good friends, especially Waylon and Johnny, who shared an apartment together in Nashville when they were just starting out. This video was really awesome!
@@VAHOSS, So you’re saying that liberals aren’t Pro American??? Obviously, we have different ideas of what being liberal means. The 1984 song, “America” that Waylon wrote and sang shows Waylon’s diverse - and yes, LIBERAL way of thinking. That song was actually ahead of its time. Waylon did not belong to any particular political party, but voted for the man he felt most comfortable with. Waylon was also an agnostic for most of his life, until he gave his life to Jesus on the Thanksgiving Day of the year before he died. Maybe you should read Waylon’s 1996 autobiography, or the autobiography that Waylon’s son wrote about his father. Don’t listen to the audio versions, because they leave a lot out. You just might get a different view of Waylon’s beliefs.
Kris has always admitted that his singing is not the best, although I personally like his style of singing. Also, in my opinion, Kris Kristofferson is the greatest songwriter who ever lived.
The guy is unbelievably talented. He catches a lot of flak on these Highwaymen posts but the guy was a scholar, a songwriter, an actor, a soldier, a helicopter pilot, an athlete and the list goes on and on. Had the guy been a great singer he would have had a monopoly on talent. He could and did do practically everything but sound like Elvis.
@@jimrichards1798 , Exactly! And because Kris’ passion was in music, instead of a military career like his father, his parents disowned him. From what I have read, the parents refused to reconcile with Kris even after he became a big success in the music industry. Thank God Kris had the fortitude to follow his own dreams, because now we have all been graced with the many, many beautiful songs that Kris has written. I believe that Kris Kristofferson is the greatest songwriter who has ever lived.
It was so great filming this. There was one part when June Carter would just be rubbing Johnny's head telling stories. The whole crew would be sitting around as if we were at a campfire. We were like, "Tell us another story June!" She was a wonderful woman.
You can tell they had a great Time together. I love this clip of those great artists sitting, singing and talking together. This is music history right here. /CD
@@larryshapiro6115, Well, you certainly did a wonderful job! I love all of the Highwaymen, but Waylon is my all time favorite. He converted me to country music in the mid 1970’s with the “Wanted - The Outlaws” album, and I followed his career until the day he died. I still listen to him almost daily. Thanks again for a great piece of work.
They were funny and respectful. My husband worked with John Cash.. audio engineer...I worked for Little Nashville Opry. I stood in the back hall, one night and talked Waylon. And only in passing with Willie... but Kris. I never did get to meet.
One of the best super bands ever! Love these guys. I'm only about half their age but I look up to their musical prowess with the utmost respect. The talent that flowed from these four men is absolutely amazing. I even like to play their songs for my children and now they are growing up to love them too! So glad we still have Willie and Kris. Miss you Mr. Cash and Mr. Jennings. As a side note, I also miss you Mr. Haggard. He was also asked to be a Highwayman.
1 of the best documentary's of all time!!! I havn't seen this in a long time. CMT use to play great things like this. Its a shame what its turned into. THANKS TENFOLD FOR POSTING THIS !!
Willy's guitar trigger is an amazing instrument, millions of notes and strums for millions of people around the globe and that thing is held together with toothpicks and glue and sounds as good as it did the day it was finished. I hope when he plays his last note it's with trigger around his neck and that guitar is placed in a rolling museum on willy's tour bus so we can all see the magic guitar
Waylon and Kris are neat. They both have very different ways of seeing things. Waylon likes concrete ideas and solutions, whereas Kris seems to be confident even amidst abstraction. They're both so cool to listen to!
Great this was captured for posterity. We'll never see the likes again. 4 true country artists - amazing insight into them. So humbling to see genius in action and so funny as well. Waylon is a truely funny and grumpy old man lol.
This is freakin IRONIC. I wrote a song related to all these guys called A Dying Breed, and Waylon sings a song and says, Living legends are a dying breed. Wow. This is great footage.
They all got choked up at one time or another during the filming of this. But they laughed more during that whole week we filmed. Willie was in trailer smoking pot with Kris most of the time.
God, I miss these guys. This was REAL country.
There was MAGIC in that Room that Day stuff like we'll never see again.....
I know people think Johnny Cash is the GOT of country and he was great, but Waylon just something about that voice and presence that is hard to deny.
no. John has such a raspy and crackly voice, its the best of country
@@djdimigaming5324 What are you hearing, Johnny Cash absolutely does not have a raspy voice.
They both have something special… no arguing but I’d have to say Waylon had something extra special ❤️
❤️
That's my opinion too, especially with the song Highwayman! When Waylon sings: I'm a sailor... that's where the most magical moment begins!! Pure goosebumps!!
Johnny having a great laugh at Waylon and Kris talking about France at 06:04.
"So does Fort Worth"
Such a great line.
You forget how good at writing they all are.
The best group of four men ever long live the highwaymen what's left of them
You will never see their like again! Just great!
That's just a ridiculous amount of talent in one space at one time. wow
Just love Waylon..........❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Trying to keep the music and spirit alive still, but you guys will always live forever no matter what, I won't stop playing these songs till I'm old and grey, 18 now til as long as I'm alive, It would have been an amazing experience to see these guys perform in my life time!
I love these guys! I totally miss them in reality.
Listen to John singing Live Forever - it don't get any better than this
It is John R. CASH ./CD
Couldn't of said it better
@ 3:35
* doesn't **
@@corneliadenninger5395 thanks
You miss these men! I'd love to see them again.
Really like them all, but that Waylon Jennings is so.....well......he's just so damn good in so damn many ways! You will live forever Hoss.
5:34-6:09...My God I love Waylon Jennings!
+jacksonking61537 SO DO I!!!!!
+jacksonking61537, Me, too! He was simply the best. Waylon will always be sorely missed.
Oh wow all of them at the same time. Wow!
So happy to see June at the end!
Love the song Kris did with Waylon blending in.(part 4)
Willie the real HIGHway man billy joe shave should have been one of them , he wrote song everyone could sing , Johnny did a good job on live forever
Brilliant.
You better grin Kris or I'll hit ya. Lol.
thanks for this, didnt even know there was a documentary about highwaymen!
I love these guys!!!!
It would be really cool to sit in that group
Brilliant. My first Musical heroes ... when I was Young, I wanted to play guitar like Willie, write songs like Kris and sing like Johnny ...
Old friends doing what they love, with each other. Does it get any better than that?......
Freaking awesome! Loved Johnny doing "Live Forever" solo. What's with Kris's hair? Looks like he's wearing a rug. Some serious guns on that dude, though. Willie rules. Think how many cigarettes have been smoked amongst that group.
I noticed his hair too but just thought it was freshly cut.
they are gods period!
Too cool, literally
You know Kris Kristofferson and Waylon Jennings are really good old friends but they were funny they saying that
They were all good friends, especially Waylon and Johnny, who shared an apartment together in Nashville when they were just starting out. This video was really awesome!
Todays country singers couldn’t sing these lyrics in a small town😢
Listen from 3:40 to 4:25
JRC was and still is great. /CD
Too good
I love Waylon!! Same as Fort Worth lmao
What I give to be in that room with them with my guitar
Willie ist inzwischen 88 fast 89 ,Kris 85
Waylon Started Country RAP !! Who The F' Knew?? LOL 😅
Take a look at Willie's guitar ... how much do you think that's worth!!!!!
+Marilyn Yun Shooter has it now and uses it at his concerts and in his music videos.
+Marilyn Yun shit sorry i thought you were talking about waylons guitar.
That's okay Rod, it's great that Shooter has Waylon's guitar; Willie and Waylon, can't beat them!!!
Marilyn Yun amen
+Marilyn Yun I want to see it one day man... he named it trigger and he says he will never use another guitar.
Legendary men
what does waylon say about france
Rob20 Piss on 'em.
who's the young hippie guy with the curly hair? sorry, just don't know...
Levi D, I believe it is their music producer, Don Was.
Waylon and Cash are badass. I love Willie's and Chris's musical ability, but they are way to Liberal for my liking.
You might not want to look too far into Waylon or Johnny's politics either then.
@@Instagrump_330 Johnny was much more conservative than the others tho. Johnny adored the 2nd amendment.
VA HOSS, Waylon was certainly not as liberal as Kris and Willie, but he was much more liberal than one might think.
@@Kayte-tv2cw i don't think so.. waylon was pro American through and through

who let miss frizzle in? 😂
why couldnt johnny and the boys have eturnal life :.../
"We just thought that if we "prayed" hard enough"
Oh my, how sad I am for her, knowing she thought "praying" actually worked.
It worked for her, who are you to doubt that it did?
I never have felt like Kristofferson fits in with those guys! He's not quite the legend they are, not even close!
Kris isn't a singer horrible voice
Maybe when he sings he is not so great, as he himself mentioned on several occasions, but talking- wise he has one helluva sexy & husky voice..
I agree he isn’t the best singer but lyrically wise he’s probably the best in the group

The shot of Johnny F'in Cash at 7:14 just sitting on the floor eating ice cream or something. My God.
It's simply priceless. /CD

Is there anymore footage?? You're very lucky man@@larryshapiro6115
If you are a Highwaymen fan, this is GOLDEN!!! WOW!!!
The highway man, the sailor, the dam builder and the space explorer.....God bless these guys!
You can tell they had a great Time together. I love this clip of those great artists sitting, singing and talking together. This is music history right here. /CD
I could sit and listen to these guys talking and singing for hours
Thor Solberg yeah me to
So could I. Love them.
I have got one great regret that i never got to see them live. /CD
I produced this and i was an amazing week of shooting.

The best and most amazing boygroup ever. RIP JRC and Waylon/CD
I just though I would add that the song "Live Forever" was written by Billy Joe Shaver who is an unsung hero of country music.
Wow this is awesome, imagine being there chilling....they all are just cool dudes.
Absolutely fantastic. What a great group of guys, we need more guys like this in music today.

Was dying to hear their reactions to Live Forever
There's another video of it somewhere on RUclips
Absolutely excellent! Thank you so much for posting!!
Waylon falling asleep.....somethings wrong there...
This is a GREAT inside-look to the VERY BEST Country-group EVER......
If 3:41 doesn't send chills up your spine...
Die vier glorreichen👍🤠🎸🇺🇲🇩🇪👏🏆
THANK YOU SOOOOOOOOOOO MUCH for uploading this!!!!!!!!!
This is freakin IRONIC. I wrote a song related to all these guys called A Dying Breed, and Waylon sings a song and says, Living legends are a dying breed. Wow. This is great footage.
Love this, is there a place I can buy a copy of this video, the full length?
I have the dvd of this but its scratched up to fuck! :/
was this on a dvd? if so what was it called? thanks ps these guys are legends
Cash always the best.
Yes he always was. No doubt. /CD
The chrildrens is Lukas and Micah Nelson
the young guy is Don Was, the producer. Brilliant in his own right.
did Chris get a little choked up there describing the album cover? Walyon pats his back 2:50
man this is some terrific footage
They all got choked up at one time or another during the filming of this. But they laughed more during that whole week we filmed. Willie was in trailer smoking pot with Kris most of the time.
Love it!!
Haha I don't think Waylon is feeling that song about Sinead. Luv it.
I fucking love them all
i think johnny won the song contest hahaha
You know what? I have a lot of things in common with Waylon Jennings, including I hate France 🤣
@devilrobbie25 Piss on 'em. lol
That kid sitting by Waylon, with the long, shaggy hair, is that his son Shooter?
Carly, No, that's not Shooter. But I was wondering myself who it is. Does anyone know?
Producer Don Was
Carly Hope Raad, Yes, that is their music producer, Don Was.
producer Don Was...famous for number one albums like jewels pieces of me
He's the master of this. Always in bare feet. Check out the Brian Wilson film we made together.
wow!!!
I think something about how he didn't like france and something about getting stoned. hope that made sense :]
Great!!!
I love them all, but poor Waylon looks like he is about to pop. lol..
3:34
Saving for myself
Fort worth... the paris France of texas lol
Ain't it grand the world. Just a fine inspiration.
johny waylon and willie i love kris not so much
Who was the most peaceful of this band?
Loved all of this. I could have missed the song about Sinead though. Not one of my favourite people.
is that howard stern
That's Don Was
Like to be a fly on the wall that day in that room with them
😂😂😂 @wish I was a fly. Me too! 😍😂
wow
Anyone know what year this is?
1995 I believe
