2016 Repress. The highly anticipated second studio album by the legendary country music supergroup The Highwaymen, consisting of icons Waylon Jennings, Willie Nelson, Johnny Cash, and Kris Kristofferson. Reunited five years after the platinum success of their debut, the four titans of the "outlaw country" movement delivered a powerful, roots-heavy collection that blended brawny Western heroism with a rugged, life-affirming optimism. Sonically, the album features the polished yet grit-infused production of legendary producer Chips Moman, matching acoustic and electric guitars with steady rhythms that framed the distinct, battle-scarred vocal deliveries of each member. Rather than succumbing to the slick pop-country trends of the late '80s and early '90s, the album leaned into bedrock morality, mythic storytelling, and personal credos of survival and friendship. The album achieved immense critical and commercial success, peaking at No. 4 on the Billboard Top Country Albums chart and earning a Grammy nomination for Best Country Vocal Collaboration. The 10-track record spawned several memorable singles, most notably the Lee Clayton-penned opening track "Silver Stallion," which became a Top 40 country hit, alongside standout tracks like "Born and Raised in Black and White" and Rivers Rutherford's epic "American Remains." Six of the album's tracks were penned or co-written by the band members themselves, including Willie Nelson's introspective "Two Stories Wide" and Johnny Cash's moving "Songs That Make a Difference." more
