My family went to Opryland in 1979 when I was a kid, and we saw Marty at the Opry (a different performance). He was the first real big name performer I ever saw in person (except for Roy Acuff earlier in the day). I'll never forget it. I assume this performance was probably close to that same time. Marty looked like the very picture of health---so slim and trim and energetic. And just a few years later, he would be gone. 😢

I use to dance at the opry and have stayed over many nights so we could watch this man preform after he raced and yes he would go over time many nights. The opry would sign off and go to the Earnest Tubb Record Shop program and Marty would keep singing for the crowd. The crowd could be dead all night but when Marty hit the stage they came alive as if you had lit a fire under them. So glad I have these memories.
