I can listen to these cowboy songs all day long! R.I.P Marty.

[@luckylady7542]

You can't go wrong with this magnificent story teller. Love Marty❤

[@diannthomas5653]

This was my favorite song as a kid. I still love it today. Marty was a master. You have to listen to Marty sing: A white Sport Coat and A Pink Carnation; Elvis did a cover of Marty’s You gave me a Mountain. And there’s Devil Woman, and the El Paso series. Marty was marvelous and so we’re his songs!

[@dalesouders4136]

I had the EXTREME PLEASURE of seeing him in concert a year before his passing. ❤

Marty Robbins, was an American singer, songwriter, actor, multi-instrumentalist & NASCAR racing driver. Robbins was one of the most popular and successful country & western singers for nearly five decades 40's-80's. A lot of his songs told stories. He had so many hits such as "Singing The Blues", "Devil Woman", "A White Sport Coat", "The Story of My Life", "El Paso", "Don't Worry", "Big Iron", "Knee Deep In The Blues", "Honkytonk Man", Don't Worry 'Bout Me", "My Woman, My Woman, My Wife" etc.

He had a role in Honky-tonk Man, with Clint Eastwood. He was one of the studio musicians and took over the song when Clint couldn't finish it.

[@elainedixon1954]

Grew up listening to him, nearly 70 and still listening to him

[@judydavis7993]

Marty Robbins has such a beautiful iconic country voice. He's definitely a great storyteller. You can't go wrong with any of his songs. Thanks for that song that brought back wonderful memories of my father. 😊❤

[@suecraig4654]

I grew up listening to Marty Robbins. Strawberry Roan was always my favorite, and give this a listen.

[@pinky2245]

Marty Robbins was an incredible multi-talented entertainer! I always loved the "stories" in his music. My favorite of his is "My Woman, My Woman, My Wife"!

[@brendaenglish2477]

My woman my woman my wife is my favorite as well

[@trevacales701]

Grew up listening to Marty Robbins. Love him. Still have his 45's records

[@stevelambert6404]

Love Marty Robbins, he could paint the best scenery with his voice

[@davidfabian7505]

One of greatest story tellers in history

[@roniboyd613]

One of my all-time fave singers ❤️ "El Paso" and "El Paso City" are couple of my favorite songs snd should be listened to together in the order given 😊

[@mentaya11]

I totally agree, though I would posit you ought to throw "Faleena" in there somewhere

[@VidarLund-k5q]

Real country music. What's called country music today is CMINO, Country Music In Name Only.

[@bwilliams463]

Marty was one of country's greatest storytellers. 'El Paso' and 'Big Iron' are two of his most-popular songs, but he had a thousand songs of all kinds, like 'Tonight Carmen,' 'Five Brothers' and his last radio hit, 'Some Memories Just Won't Die.' He was also an avid stock-car racing driver, which sometimes caused some friction when he was on the Grand Ole Opry: more than once he prioritized the racing over the show, which sometimes caused him to show up late for the Opry.

Hi Mr. Taylor. I only found your channel just this minute. I am a 74 year old guy, born in southern Alberta. I want to tell you why this song by the great Marty Robbins is not nearly as close to 'fantasy' as you might think. And why I have always enjoyed this song, not only for the musical aspect of it, but for the serious possibility of it actually happening (but never did). Back in the 1920s and onward, southern Alberta was all about the ranching scene. It still is to this day! Ranching was not just an American thing. Canadians and Americans have been friends and business partners ever since Columbus... or Jesus... I can't remember, lol. As a child of 3, my dear father Eddie Reardon (born in 1906) was himself a stallion of a man as far as I was concerned. My dad was not a professional cowboy, but he darned near WAS this cowboy in the continental suit. I watched my dad compete in rodeo maybe once or twice each summer. That's all he had time for because he was way too busy making a living in more important endeavours. He was a cattle feeder running his own "feedlot" in his best efforts to feed his family. But he did indeed accomplish the impossible when he beat the greatest Canadian Champion calf roper of all time, Fred Gladstone, ONE TIME! His prize? $10 Canadian dollars. Fred's son Jimmy Gladstone went on to reign as the next Canadian champion calf roper for something like the next 10 years. The Gladstones were native aboriginal Canadians. We used to call them Indians back in the day. Today we treat them with much more respect, as they have deserved all along. OK, about "the horse". My main reason for submitting this comment is to tell you about the incredible big black horse named Midnight that was originally owned by a fellow named Jim McNab, a friend of my father. My dad had the honor of watching Midnight buck the best riders in the world off his back and over the highway into the Oldman river, about 1/4 miles away, lol. Americans. Canadians. It didn't matter... Midnight was having none of it. That horse retired unridden and was given a wonderful life on a beautiful Alberta ranch until his passing. For that reason alone, the Ft. Macleod rodeo was named "Midnight Days", held at the Midnight Stadium. midnightstadium.ca/ That's why "The Cowboy In the Continental Suit" would indeed almost have been a miracle. This is such a wonderful story, written and sung by a wonderful entertainer, Mr. Marty Robbins. Sincere thank you for your interest in this, our heritage. It is as real as rain. Marty Robbins knew that. And now you do as well. You would be welcome at the incredible Calgary Stampede anytime. Check this out kzbin.info/www/bejne/jX7TomCtYsZ3rqs I realize that I offered an overly long comment here... but you deserve to hear it. Lots of love from Alberta. 💗

[@rebeccamccann8710]

This is another of Marty Robbins wonderful western story songs. I would love to see your reaction to ‘The Ballad of Bill Thaxton”. It is wonderful beginning to end.

[@margaretsimmons1598]

Check out his song “Big Iron”

[@saragodres-tomes1032]

I love every comment here! And one day react to Marty's "Utah Carol", please?

[@SarabethWhite]

❤❤❤😊😊😊 More Marty Robbins please!

[@firefighterchick]

You can't get more old achool than Marty Robbins. I believe this song would be more in the western genre than the country genre. He was a stock car driver. He also served in the Navy in the Pacific Theater during WWII.

[@oldermusiclover]

that is the late great Grady Martin on guitar

[@davesimmer5617]

Marty Robbins was a great singer and story teller. If you like cowboy songs, I would like to recommend Micheal Martin Murphy, his is also a great one.

[@cricketpitts3744]

Love Marty Robbins ❤

[@charleykeenan6171]

The most iconic Western singer, singing one of the most iconic Western songs.. America as it was.. A lot of people hear this dong and think it was a "rodeo" - this was just another day at the ranch.. ❤❤

[@sharonpate5481]

My favorite Marty Robbins song is still “Cool Water” about a man and his horse lost in the desert 👵🏼💜☮️

[@StevenCorns]

Rest in peace Marty Robbins

[@warrengee-f9l]

havent heard Marty Robbins since I was a kid... El Paso

[@Pippin14]

I could see, "No, can't be over!" written all over your face when it stopped! We used to listen to this all the time on the radio. Along with 'Convoy' by CW McCall, and a slew of others. Back when country was REAL.

[@dennyfrodge7539]

You might want to react to marty robbins Strseberry Roan

[@GrandmasGotGraceLW]

Been a long time since I heard this. Thank you! 😀 Marty Robbins has always been one of my VERY favorite singers.

[@Fostermom4chis]

You will like Mr Shorty, the Strawberry Roan and They're Hanging Me Tonight

[@timothypeterson4781]

YES! One of mine (I'm guessing.)

[@lindanicholson950]

Marty sang so many songs that weren't westerns. I'm Hurt. Don't Worry. Tonight Carmen. Begging To You. Devil Woman. Georgia Blood.

[@diogosabino2545]

Big Iron next!!!

[@beegee1960]

Marty was from the Western side of Country and Western Music.

[@brendaenglish2477]

I was always a huge fan of Marty Robbins. It was so sad when he passed so young. He had an absolutely beautiful, smooth voice.

[@mso4433]

El Paso and El Paso City are two other greats from Marty. I loved all his stuff. Try to listen to them in that order. You'll understand later.

[@mentaya11]

And "Faleena?"

[@mattconner6416]

Marty Robbins version is so polished and well done, but you should listen to Chris LeDoux's version too... It's much more cowboy-esque

[@nathanadrian7797]

Watch Ian Tyson, "Four Strong Winds"

[@paulmartin2348]

I love Marty Robbins but check out this newer song "Morgan Wallen - The Way I Talk". You might enjoy this, it's a lot of fun. 😄

[@collinscody57]

Tom t hall aka the cowboy poets is a similar. I suggest faster horses as it's a good one.

[@tracyjones5156]

You cant go wrong with any Marty Robin's song. He was a wonderful story teller.

[@bevdavis4148]

My favorite. Based on a real event when Buffalo Bill had his top hand dress like a fop and insult the cowboys.

[@jordonlongley6576]

Mf really rhymed “quick” with “neck”😂
