This is probably my favourite live DVD of all time as you just can’t beat having all four legends on the stage at the same time, performing some of their solo classics as well as a good selection of Highwaymen hits. In terms of their solo songs, Willie does an unforgettable rendition of ‘City of New Orleans’, while Kristofferson’s ‘Best of All Possible Worlds’ is his best performance by a mile. Cash has a great moment just before ‘Ragged Old Flag’ stating that he appreciates that you have the right to burn your flag, as long as you respect his right to bear arms if you try to burn his! Waylon’s best song is probably his part in ‘Ain’t No Good Chain Gang’, though he puts in a great performance of ‘Luchenbach, Texas’ towards the end.

The whole concert is played effortlessly by each of the Highwaymen - you could easily mistake the whole thing with a private gig where they’re perfoming in front of a few old friends they used to know and have a laugh with. There’s a kinda feeling of ‘for old times sake’, which really gives the concert a relaxed atmosphere where everyone’s just having a fun time.

In terms of the Highwaymen songs, there are some great choices. ‘Highwayman’ as expected, the classic ‘Desperados Waiting for a Train’, ‘Silver Stallion’ and the upbeat ‘Big River’ are the most notable. I’d like to have seen ‘American Remains’ or ‘Against the Wind’ perfomed, but you can’t have it all!

Overall, it’s a great DVD with great sound quality, excellent camera work and a unique, and quite rare collection of footage from one of the most memorable tours of all time. There’s no extras, but there’s brief interviews between some of the songs, which offers insight into what the guys thought of each other and the band. It’s one of those shows that you really want to keep going - there’s certainly enough in the back-catalogue!
