Title - 'The Highwaymen Live - 'American Outlaws'
Artist - The Highwaymen

Nearly 30 years after Elvis Presley, Jerry Lee Lewis, Carl Perkins and Johnny Cash all swapped gospel harmonies during the "Million Dollar Quartet" jam at Sun Studio in 1956, a different sort of supergroup — the Highwaymen — released their first album.

Cash was part of that line-up too, teaming up with his old roommate Waylon Jennings and Texas titans Kris Kristofferson and Willie Nelson. The result was something rarely seen during the early days of country music's climb into the mainstream: a group of elder statesmen who could still top the charts, speeding past the younger acts of the genre.

The Highwaymen's trip started in 1985 and wrapped up one decade later. The group released three albums along the way, and now Legacy Records teams up with Columbia Records to release a four-disc CD/DVD package, The Highwaymen Live - American Outlaws. The live box set hits stores May 20th, while the documentary premieres a week later on May 27th.

The Highwaymen Live - American Outlaws includes two audio discs recorded live at Nassau Coliseum, Uniondale, New York, March 14th, 1990; and audio disc with tracks recorded live at various Farm Aid Festivals; and a previously unreleased full-length concert film recorded live at Nassau Coliseum, Uniondale, New York, March 14th, 1990. Transferred from the original film reels especially for this collection it is a really true stand alone nightlight of this incredible new collection.

As an added bonus, The Highwaymen Live - American Outlaws debuts a previously unreleased recording of 'One Too Many Mornings,' an alternate take of a Bob Dylan song which appeared on Heroes, a 1986 collaboration album by Johnny Cash and Waylon Jennings. The track's new incarnation now includes vocals recorded by Willie Nelson and Kris Kristofferson in 2014.
