[@jolenewitzel7919]

My husband took me to see him in concert for our first date in '72. ❤❤❤❤❤

[@michaelsmith5021]

Loved Marty from a very young age. Loved his Western Tales. Still do. He left us way too soon. RIP, The Great Marty Robbins.

[@jeffkeller2768]

One of a kind! Country music icon!! One of many great songs from this legend.

[@lindariley1356]

New subscriber thank you for playing country❤🌹

[@DjPjrocReacts911]

Thanks for subbing!

[@safariloverinnc5156]

Marty was a great, great singer.............

[@donrogers1337]

Love watching videos of Marty Robbins, just to see how much fun he is having on stage. The voice and song are just a bonus for Us the fans..

[@ArcaneWeasel]

El Paso City is my favorite of the 3

[@craigholt3485]

I love how, of all songers of country music, Marty was chosen. My mother introduced me to him before I was 5. Hes in my top 5.

[@dagmar.6954]

Marty Robbins career spanned nearly 5 decades from the late 40's to early 80's. In the 50's he had hits "Singing the Blues", "A White Sport Coat & A Pink Carnation" & "The Story of My Life". His signature song was "El Paso" in 1959 which started the western ballads he was most famous for. Robbins recorded more than 500 songs & 60 albums & won two Grammy Awards among other honors. His songs were covered by many other famous artists, including Johnny Cash, the Grateful Dead & Elvis Presley. Truly a legend.

[@cherylwilkinson3228]

Thank you for reacting to Marty again, my favorite singer of all time. He wrote some great love songs too, but anything he sang is worth listening to.

[@lindarenslow8057]

We don’t have music anymore like this. Marty and Merle were the best. Sure do mis them! Love you both.

[@bobbierobinson6269]

This is my favorite of the El Paso trio. I love your reactions.

[@DjPjrocReacts911]

Love Marty!

[@bobbierobinson6269]

@@DjPjrocReacts911 you should check out him and Merle Haggard doing imitations together. It's funny.

[@MrNormaltoo]

fantastic. so glad you got the whole story.

[@Judy0910]

Anything that he sings is beautiful.

[@lincolnlewis6979]

Genius song writer...it doesn't get any better.

[@carlprince2866]

as always a pleasure PJ

[@mikelaney3026]

Nice trilogy!! Times for so much different back then I wonder what Marty would think if he was looking down at El Paso from 30,000 ft today????? God bless you and yours and God bless the USA

[@dennisking7872]

He'd notice how much El Paso has grown since he composed these songs. Did you know that he did a tourism promotional video for El Paso back in the 1970s? You can find it on KZbin.

[@flomurdock]

I wonder what Marty woud think of what's going on with Big Iron and the video game. There are all kinds of parodies out there, and knowing Marty's sense of humor, I'll bet he would have written his own parody.

[@pathare2658]

That was great. I never heard it..thanks

[@Teresia12]

Another one I heard a LOT growing up. Daddy n Mama danced to this one. They were so cute.

[@cindy-followerofjesuschris6572]

Marty Robbins was always a class act!

[@joelabel8260]

This song gives me the chills. To me it is the best of trilogy. The last line shakes me up. I love the idea that narrator believes, deep down, that the cycle might start over if he ever sets foot back in El Paso.

[@JHargis68]

My mom bought this 45 when it came out as well. The song has such a feel to it; I was 8 years old at the time and it definitely had an impact.

[@markalumbaugh2756]

Wow, you've been busy this weekend. Nice job. I love Marty Robins western songs. Other Western song worth checking out would be "Big Iron" and "Cool Water" and many others. Some Country Songs I'd suggest would be "This Time Lord You Gave Me A Mountain," - "My Woman My Woman My Wife," - "Devil Woman" and "Ribbon Of Darkness."

[@waynelohf7772]

So glad you followed up with this one.

[@dontherealartist]

I am somehow 68 years old (although I don't look it, ask ANYONE :P) and I remember riding in my parent's '57 NASH Ambasadore to one of the first ''mega-stores'' U-SAVE on 42nd Ave., in San Mateo, CA where my father bought Marty's ''Gunfighter Ballads'' and ''More Gunfighter Ballads.'' My father took meticulous care of his records and I still have them. Marty was his own genre. Hank Williams, Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson, Patsy Cline . . . what a time! :)

[@DjPjrocReacts911]

Great stuff Donald.

[@dontherealartist]

@@DjPjrocReacts911 Thank you sir. It was a different WORLD then, and may I say a BETTER world then. I'm glad you are discovering this TRUE music: No filters, NO noise, NO auto-tune, NO debased dehumanizing lyrics. CARRY-ON. I enjoy watching you discover the TRUTH. :)

[@dennisking7872]

El Paso City was a huge hit for him back in the mid 1970s......great song!

[@johnraygun9868]

much love brother, hope life is treating you well!

[@DjPjrocReacts911]

I'm good, thanks. Same to you!

[@tallestmountain]

Those 3 songs make a mini movie.

[@Amelas_One_1953]

No unfinished business here. Singer, Entertainer, Winston Cup driver. A Man with a Voice!

[@lincolnlewis6979]

I can't even express how much I love this singer's songs. Gunfighter Ballads was the first LP I owned...knew every song word for word...just hearing a Marty Song gives me goose bumps...please check out SAN ANGELO..one of his best songs in my opinion.

[@tallestmountain]

Same here, played over and over.

[@piglyglyn]

Love San Angelo!

[@daisyclifton9784]

Love, love Marty. Another artist from the past you might enjoy is Jim Reeves. He also has a velvet voice.

[@DjPjrocReacts911]

I did he has to go some time back, It's on my play list. Great voice.

[@Amaberean]

The man with the golden voice. You nailed it. In most fans opinion Marty’s greatest song was “My Woman, My Woman, My Wife.” Imo the greatest tribute song to to a wife, ones anchor, ever. You can’t go wrong with a reaction to that one. Till next time.

[@SuperJoy71]

You need to do “the streets of Laredo “ and my woman my woman my wife

[@flomurdock]

Best to avoid songs l ike Streets of Laredo and Cool Water. These are western songs that precede Marty, and not good to waste time on them when Marty has so many good songs of hi s own.

[@mmc5095]

May I suggest Vern Gosdin "Chiseled in stone". His nickname is "the Voice" given to him country music fans.

[@artfisk3]

my favorites of his are, "don't worry about me " and "i walk alone " . more bluesy

[@sharonpate5481]

I’m so glad you got to the third song that ties them all together. I’d love to see your reaction to “Cool Water” next. But you can’t go wrong with thing by Marty Robbins. 🙏🏼☮️❤️👵🏼

[@gregfisher4529]

Marty would do the closing segment on the Grand Ole Opry. When his segment was over he'd run over to the clock and turn the hands back. He'd give the audience a mini Marty concert! 😀

[@shooter3083]

Another of Marty's songs that deserve consideration, is "Lord, You Gave Me A Mountain". An amazing song.

[@DjPjrocReacts911]

Check my play list, I did it.

[@shooter3083]

@@DjPjrocReacts911 I apologize. i need to check closer in the future. Thank you.

[@kippytx]

Unexpected twist. Huh? Really neat

[@DjPjrocReacts911]

Yup, it was so gooood!

[@johndavidson5228]

Until just a few months ago I had been aware of only two El Paso related songs from Marty, the original and this one. I had no knowledge of the fact that a trilogy existed. Now I like all three. Thanks for reviewing all three. If you have the chance, you also should listen to "Devil Woman" by Marty.

Ken Curtis, Festus Hagen, you should try him out sometime when you’re bored. Love your reactions. Thank you

[@brenth2794]

Reading comments here about Gunfighter Ballads, you should check out Lorne Greene's "Ringo". Great song. He played the patriarch of the Cartright family in Bonanza among other things.

[@kathifielder1110]

What a coincidence that you should react to this. We took a vacation recently and visited our daughter in El Paso. We lunched at Rosa's Cantina one day. The bathrooms were spectacular! My husband had to take a pic of the urinals (beer kegs). I bought a t-shirt as a remembrance. Front: Rosa's Cantina The Original El Paso, TX "Out in the west Texas town of El Paso" (with roses on it) Back: Rosa's Cantina Rules: Cowboys: No Shirt~No Service Cowgirls: No Shirt~Free Drinks

[@DjPjrocReacts911]

Nice! I got to get out to Rosa's.

[@gregrenn2138]

Reincarnation in the old west, how cool is that.

[@DjPjrocReacts911]

COOL

[@masonsteele1674]

The Highwaymen sing about reincarnation in their song "Highwayman."

[@JHargis68]

Marty Robbins final film appearance was with Clint Eastwood in the movie "Honkytonk Man". In the film, Clint plays a Jimmie Rodgers-like character who's dying of TB as he struggles for musical success. Marty Robbins plays the singer who takes over for Clint when Clint can't finish a song in the recording studio. This is ironic, because at the time it was Marty Robbins who was very ill.

[@PapaFixit]

3 songs about a decade between them telling a love story about a cowboy and a girl. 1950s,1960s,late 1970s. Then a decade or little more later Songwriters: E. Setser / T. Seals writes 7 Spanish Angels. Willie Nelson and Ray Chatles record it and it's a mega smash hit. The story is about a cowboy and a girl dieing together for love. It's my opinion the writers may have been influenced by the original El Paso, but then again the story's old as time.

[@flomurdock]

Townes???? Check out Troy Seals

[@PapaFixit]

@@flomurdock my bad....it's ok to correct me if I'm wrong. Sometimes the old memory slips a little.

[@PapaFixit]

So Townes wrote Panco and lefty. Willie co-sang both songs.I got them mixed up.

[@deanwa8581]

You should review Brooks & Dunn and John Michael Montgomery in the future. They have awesome songs too. Another awesome Glenn Campbell is his William Tell Overture. You will love it!!

[@rowdy7480]

My parents went to see him twice. It was the only time Dad trusted Mom with his expensive camera, cause Mr. Robbins would let the ladies come up close to take photos, but not men 😂😂😂

[@DjPjrocReacts911]

lol

[@mintonmiller]

As Paul Harvey would say, now you know the rest of the story.

[@DjPjrocReacts911]

What a voice Paul Harvey had. Man

[@lulatodd2147]

Don’t you love the Mexican influence in his music?! If you love story songs , you must listen to Pancho and Lefty, if you haven’t. My favorite version is by Emmylou Harris, Willie and Merle’s is excellent.

[@highnrising]

"El Paso City" is kind of breaking the 4th wall, where Marty sings about himself as the singer of the song about a gunslinger, rather than the gunslinger, himself. Marty had done and achieved so much by this point, and the lyrics of this song are so clever that we're willing to let Marty toot his own horn while engaging in a bit of false modesty and pretending that he doesn't know who the original singer was.

[@DjPjrocReacts911]

Very clever indeed. Loved it, loved all three.

[@dennisking7872]

A tremendous songwriter, indeed!

[@ednafenton7558]

Marty Robbins left us to soon, just like Conway Twitty. Both ere great songwriter/singers who had the sexiest voices in Country Music. Try Marty singing, "My woman, My Woman, My Wife". And then listen to Conway, "You've Never Been This Far Before" You WILL NOT be sorry you did.

[@donaldfraser2431]

Great final reaction to the "Trilogy" Pj, man his tone was just so crazy good ! As i had stated once before, his arrangements where a journey. Are you making the Pina Coladas for the Jamaican beach sit or is it my turn ?? Lol! Thanks Brother !!!

Another great choice. I have 2 songs for you. By two of my faves and both seemingly enjoyed by you. First is another Marty Robbins song called The Ballad of The Alamo. The 2nd is Patty Loveless. It's from the same concert as the version of Never Leave Harlan Alive that you reacted to. This one is called Pretty Little Miss. (not to be confused with Pretty Polly which she did with Ralph Stanley and his band. Hope you enjoy. 1. Alamo kzbin.info/www/bejne/e6rYZIJ_o5p0ZpI 2.
