Although he is not blood related to Waylon Jennings, Struggle grew up as though he was. He even spent his summers growing up working on his Grandpa Waylon's road crew; Kris Kristofferson by the way has mostly been acting in his later years, he's the old man in the Blade movie series with Wesley Snipes.

Four of the greatest of all time. Kris Kristofferson is one of the greatest songwriters ever. Kris wrote the song Me and Bobbi McGee that was a huge hit for Janis Joplin, and so many other great songs. He did a lot of movies also as an actor. Back in the day there was a TV show called the Dukes of Hazzard. The hands they showed playing guitar in the theme song and singing it and also the voice narrating the show was Waylon Jennings. Waylon was supposed to be on the plane the night Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens and The Big Bopper were killed in a crash. He was part of Buddy's band then. He and another guy were asked to give up their seats so Ritchie Valens and The Big Bopper could fly back. That crash is what Don Mclean was singing about in the song American Pie when he said the day the music died. Oh and no, the song had nothing to do with the American Pie movies.

Hopefully this leads you guys to more Willie and the boys (a lyric from one of their songs). Willie is awesome. He and Ray Charles have a song (Seven Spanish Angels) that you all will love and checkout Hazeville. It's a song about Willie's legendary pot smoking. He and Waylon did an entire album together. That group of guys that played together a lot and covered each other's songs all the time. Waylon has a lot of great songs too and we all know about Cash. Kristoferrson has some good tunes but when his acting career took off he didn't spend as much time with the music.

Kris K. wrote and sang Bobby McGee made famous by Janis Joplin, although he may not of been as accomplished in country music as the three other legends he was may more of a well rounded renaissance man. He was an accomplished chopper pilot, semipro boxer, Rhodes Scholar (very difficult) and most famously an actor. He wanted to be famous so he got a job at the largest recording studio in Nashville as a janitor, he gave Johnny Cash a demo tape and he never heard anything so he borrowed a helicopter and flew it to Johnny Cash's house and landed in his back yard asking "have you listened to my tape yet" lol. He is a TRUE LEGEND and an American Icon. ALSO not to mention he was the one who found the greatest song writer of ALL TIME and gave him his first record deal, maybe you've heard of John Prine? Please review any of the following John Prine songs; Angel from Montgomery, Sam Stone, Speed of the sound of loneliness, inspite of our selves, please review John Prine, you won’t be sorry and I bet you would get a ton of likes since not many youtubers have yet!

The Highwayman was Willie Nelson. The Sailor was Kris Kristopherson. The Dam Builder was Waylon Jennings and the Pilot wad Johnny Cash. Waylon Jennings was nicknamed "The Nashville Rebel" for his unwillingness to change his lyrics to accommodate the Nashville producers. Kris Kristopherson wrote the hits Convoy and Sunday Morning Coming Down. Of course Willie and Johnny need no introduction. These men are giants in C&W music and have been at it for over half a century. Waylon and Johnny have since passed. RIP

Kris Kristofferson as an actor also stared in the movie "Convoy" --- based on the song "Convoy" by C.W. McCall. don't use the movie version of the song but and OG of the song. just they changed it to fit the movie. :( it became the truckers protest song back in the 70's when Carter lowered the speed limit from 75mph to 55mph. and at that time as well many police juridictions hated all truckers and would profile them. and pull them over for any little reason. and it is considered a country song.

This song is about reincarnation. The highwayman, the sailor, the dam builder and the astronaut is all the same person who has died and has been reincarnated. A cool tidbit of information about Waylon Jennings. The Day The Music Died, which was the plane crash that killed Buddy Holly, Richie Valens and the Big Bopper, Waylon Jennings was meant to be on that plane and gave up his seat to Buddy Holly as Buddy Holly was feeling unwell. Jokingly, Buddy Holly said 'I hope the bus crashes' whereas Waylon Jennings replied 'well I hope the plane crashes'. He felt a lot of guilt for this which lead him into his addictions.

Y'all need to dig a little deeper on Kris Kristofferson, he was better known maybe as a writer, but was also a performer and actor, co-starring with Wesley Snipes as his crusty old friend and partner in the Blade movie trilogy. Like many struggling artists of his generation, he struggled with some substances he shouldn't have earlier in life, but wrote one of the most poignant songs about that experience; that feeling of the day after the week of partying, called "Sunday Morning Coming Down". Give it a listen, you'll appreciate the craft in his writing; the images and perceptions he can convey with simple words is just amazing and engaging.

They were all Outlaw Country. They told Nashville where to shove it and did things their way. They were all close friends for years and years, who often worked together with each other. Highwaymen just happened to be all 4 of them working together. Merle Haggard and David Alan Coe were Outlaws, too. There were others. There were women Outlaws, too! Loretta Lynn could be considered an Outlaw ( she was often called "too country for Nashville" plus, she said, wrote, sang, and recorded exactly what was on her mind...tegardless of if you liked it or not), Tanya Tucker, and Waylon Jennings's widow Jessi Colter... didn't take crap either.
