One of the greatest voices that ever stepped in front of a microphone to perform on stage or in a recording studio. Marty was highly respected by his peers for both his vocal and song writing ability and he often topped polls for favourite singer voted for by fans. A mighty talent the likes of we'll probably never see or hear again.

One of my favorites.

The greatest voice ever in Country Music, a superb songwriter, a good musician and one of the greatest showmen to come down the pike.

Thank you

Nobody can tell a story like Msrty! The best

Tks Louis. I never heard this song. I'm never disappointed with Marty Robbins.

Thanks for this request Lewis. Marty is a great western story teller, even though is material is known for songs rather than spoken word. As for the draw, they are done this day of. There is a riders meeting/gathering a few hours prior to the start of the rodeo were the cowboy draws his stock. When I rode, it was like you said a draw of the horse/bull's number from a hat. You could put the number back in the hat if you were afraid of that draw or had bad omens about that draw, but you would receive a no ride for that round. A no ride would generally put you out of this possibility of winning any money for that rodeo, since theur are generally 2-3 rounds and it's combined scores of all rounds. Hope that helps. Thanks for the reaction Don. Here in a shocker for you, don't have a heart attack, but I agreed on your rating 🙂

Thanks Louis and Don! I will always listen to a Marty Robbins song. This was one I'd never heard, but it sure was up to his standards for me. Of course "El Paso" is my favorite, but I really enjoyed this one!

[@terrywoodyyc]

Awesome! Marty is the best. Thanks Don and Louis for the great choice and reaction!

[@sharonpate5481]

I love Marty Robbins! My favorite is “Cool Water”. He really knows how to tell you a story!! 💜👵🏼✌🏼🌻

[@dennisking7872]

"Cool Water" was made famous by Bob Nolan and the Sons of the Pioneers. Marty does a great job with that one, too.

Check out his more comic take on same situation…The Cowboy in the Continental Suit. Also the 125 year old song Strawberry Roan

[@margaretk.302]

Lane Frost. There was a movie made about his life and death. Thanks for the Marty song!!! Always the best.

[@user-wi6oc8kq6o]

Lane Frost rode bulls, not broncs, but he was killed by a bull. This incident happened to a bronc rider at Madison Square Gardens in 50s

[@Georgia_Outlaw_Vinyl]

The Blake Shelton song was originally by George Jones.

[@Georgia_Outlaw_Vinyl]

Here’s George’s version. kzbin.info/www/bejne/iXLZe2R_edygq9ksi=YHqZRMglK4-qep9E

[@user-wi6oc8kq6o]

True story, this happened at Madison Square Garden in mid to late 50’s in front of a capacity crowd. I don’t remember for a fact if the horse also died but the rider was killed on the spot.

[@wadeday9082]

Blake covered George Jones’s Ol’ Red.

[@johndavidson5228]

Nice song, Don. Sorry that I can't help you with the rodeo rules on the bronco draws.

[@shirleyredd6107]

I sad about the end of song but Lu it

[@duanes8209]

noone beats Marty Robbins in story telling...you should try Mr. Shorty...its a great story and song

[@jillmiller7248]

When we were younger ,we went to the local rodeo's and they would have to put money in a pot and draw their bulls right before the rodeo starts that night .
