Unbelievable live performance. No tricks, no gimmicks, no "enhanced" vocals, just sheer talent. Love Marty's guitar playing and his singing is exquisite. Super trio harmonies and what else do you want?!!!!

[@daveweed2765]

Not as simple. This was a staged performance on film. Marty Robbins is not playing the Mexican Guitar and I have serious doubts he is actually singing. There are just not enough live action and it sounds exactly like the recorded track. I'm just saying because I play guitar and nothing live from music to vocals ever sounds exactly the same as the recorded track that you here on the radio or albums. On this song clearly Marty Robbins is playing rythem guitar and making a show of it for the Camara. Then you have the Mexican or Spanish guitar with individual notes playing the lead. Just watch it and listen again. Not to mention the lead sounds more like softer sounds of vinyl strings instead of metal.

[@rayray8687]

@@daveweed2765: You might play the guitar but I have worked in the music business for several decades as a writer, performer, singer and musician and have been involved in video production, editing and arranging and I can assure you this video is NOT lip-synched to the original recording - in fact it doesn’t sound anything like it in terms of either vocal or instrumental tonality. Anyone experienced in music production can see at a glance that this is a genuine live performance, something Mr Robbins was extremely good at. And btw, the guitar off screen in this video is normally described as a Spanish guitar or a classical guitar and the strings are made of nylon, not vinyl.

[@jimsatterfield8748]

"El Paso" Out in the West Texas town of El Paso I fell in love with a Mexican girl Nighttime would find me in Rosa's cantina Music would play and Felina would whirl Blacker than night were the eyes of Felina Wicked and evil while casting a spell My love was deep for this Mexican maiden I was in love but in vain, I could tell One night a wild young cowboy came in Wild as the West Texas wind Dashing and daring, a drink he was sharing With wicked Felina, the girl that I loved So in anger I Challenged his right for the love of this maiden Down went his hand for the gun that he wore My challenge was answered in less than a heartbeat The handsome young stranger lay dead on the floor Just for a moment I stood there in silence Shocked by the foul evil deed I had done Many thoughts raced through my mind as I stood there I had but one chance and that was to run Out through the back door of Rosa's I ran Out where the horses were tied I caught a good one, it looked like it could run Up on its back and away I did ride Just as fast as I Could from the West Texas town of El Paso Out to the badlands of New Mexico Back in El Paso my life would be worthless Everything's gone in life; nothing is left It's been so long since I've seen the young maiden My love is stronger than my fear of death I saddled up and away I did go Riding alone in the dark Maybe tomorrow, a bullet may find me Tonight nothing's worse than this pain in my heart And at last here I Am on the hill overlooking El Paso I can see Rosa's cantina below My love is strong and it pushes me onward Down off the hill to Felina I go Off to my right I see five mounted cowboys Off to my left ride a dozen or more Shouting and shooting, I can't let them catch me I have to make it to Rosa's back door Something is dreadfully wrong for I feel A deep burning pain in my side Though I am trying to stay in the saddle I'm getting weary, unable to ride But my love for Felina is strong and I rise where I've fallen Though I am weary I can't stop to rest I see the white puff of smoke from the rifle I feel the bullet go deep in my chest From out of nowhere Felina has found me Kissing my cheek as she kneels by my side Cradled by two loving arms that I'll die for One little kiss and Felina, goodbye

My 17 yr old,orange-headed, Dutch,German,Irish,Czech,Hungarian kid cranks this song up on his 12"Rockford Fosgates in Carson City,NV , though he hails from Northern wisconson,U.S......this shows the spread of the influence of beauty...just an awesome song!!

My love is stronger than my fear of death....powerful words...

[@rodneygunderson3043]

I wish they could write a country song like that nowdays

Husband beloved died of cancer and loved this song - we visited some States of USA before

[@lennon1252]

People should know who was backing up Marty Robbins in this performance. Doing the harmonies with him are Bobby Sykes and Jim Glaser (of The Glaser Brothers) and playing the beautiful Spanish guitar fills but not on camera is Marty's long time lead guitarist Grady Martin.

60年位前、日本のTVで放送された西部劇「ローハイド 」の主題歌のレコードが発売され、そのB面がエル・パソでしたね。心地よいリズムで良く聴いていました。

[@patrickmeisinger825]

[@markstone2499]

I remember Bob and Peggy who knew Marty Robbins and many a night I was at their house listening to the autographed records , I miss you both.

[@scopex2749]

Ive loved this since I was little back in the 60’s

[@peggybillard8900]

Me too!! I always thought it was an old old song from the 1900s.... little did i suspect it was a Brand New Marty Robbins creation!!

[@PointlessIFR]

A heavy metal cover for this is needed.

[@zyourzgrandzmaz]

One of the best stories ever told right here. You could literally tell this to your grand kids any decade the 1950s or the 2050s.....

[@chrisbarker9852]
