Clayton Lee - Border Affair

Facts Country-rock singer-songwriter Lee Clayton arguably was responsible for the term "Outlaw Country" in 1972 with his song "Ladies Love Outlaws," a hit for Waylon Jennings. He wrote songs like "Lone Wolf" for Jerry Jeff Walker and "If You Could Touch Her At All" for Willie Nelson. The Highwaymen, an outlaw country supergroup comprising Johnny Cash, Waylon Jennings, Willie Nelson and Kris Kristofferson, had a minor hit with the opening song "Silver Stallion." Cat Power also covered "Silver Stallion" on her 2008 cover album 'Jukebox'. Clayton was accompanied by the late (2019) Irish lead-guitarist Philip Donnelly who's guitar playing skills were rated alongside those of Jimi Hendrix and Eric Clapton.
