“Highwayman,” is one of the great Jimmy Webb songs that Webb composed in the 1970s. The song has not been recorded by that many people which is surprising because it’s such a great country western song. It’s also a homage to the road.

We wondered which Jimmy Webb songs we would pick for the number one spot on the list. Jimmy Webb has written so many classic songs, we knew it would be tough. It soon became clear that the Richard Harris version of Macarthur Park would take the top spot. Yet, we know nobody knows what “left a cake out in the rain,” means. But so what, that’s art. T...
