The Highwaymen

Before their electrifying performance of "Always On My Mind" during the live recording at Nassau Coliseum in 1989, The Highwaymen had released their acclaimed album "Highwayman" in 1985. This album proved pivotal, featuring hits like the title track, which showcased the collective talents of country legends Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson, Waylon Jennings, and Kris Kristofferson. By the time of this live recording in 1990, The Highwaymen were already established as a supergroup, and their harmonies became symbolic of the ’80s and ’90s country music scene. The Nassau Coliseum show represented a high point in their career, capturing the energy of their audience and the camaraderie between these four music icons. Interestingly, their diverse backgrounds not only brought variety to their music but also created a powerful connection with fans who resonated deeply with their storytelling style.
