Johhny Horton
Willie Nelson (recntly saw him in Vegas, still one of the best all around performers/musicians out there)

I never ever thought I would see Tom T Hall posted on GFY...especially by SykkBoy :-) What a refreshing site. I don't listen to much stuff that's even remotely country now, but you do have to give respect where it's due. Shit, all of these guys tought me a lot growing up.
These guys were all hardcore...telling it the way it is...and changing a lot of rules in their day...they were recording with Elvis and Buddy Holly before rock and roll existed, they were having fun at the start of it all.
It is a sad day. And like Aaron said, the Highwaymen will all be gone soon. It really sucks...
