Remember Marty Robbins? You could call him Country music’s James Bond. It seemed like he could do it all. He brought cowboy music to the masses with tunes like “Big Iron” and “El Paso”, all while moonlighting as a race car driver and TV host. But was he really what he claimed to be? Or was he living a double life the whole time?

    I live in Honolulu and got to meet Marty in the 70s and he invited me to drink coffee with him before he went on stage. I found him to be very humorous and humble. I thank you, this video reminds me of that special time.

    I played rock before entering the military and switched to country while on Okinawa. The leader of the band I was in heard me sing a little and had me listen to Marty's "The Master's Call". I was hooked on Marty ever since. One of the first I did was "Don't Worry 'bout Me". I do some of his songs with my band, including, of course, El Paso. I got to see him in concert at a race track about four months before he passed. It was an outside gig and the stage was surriunded by a rope barrier. I take lots of pictures but the security wouldn't let me get as close as I wanted. I went around the stage taking pics and was on stage right when for some reason I yelled "Hey, Marty!" He saw I wanted to take a picture and he actually stopped to pose for me. It is my favorite. I sent all the pictures to his children, Ronnie and Janet. I got a really nice letter back thanking me. A lot of folks love his songs and I get requests for something, anything by him whernever we play. I'll post them on Facebook again so all his fans can reminice.

    Do not believe a word of this. Met Marty many times , he was always very kind with fans.
  • I love Marty's songs since I was young, as a matter of fact he was my most favorite county singer then until now. I saw his concert on tv before he passed and it was pretty amazing . I cam remember the day he passed away, it was announced on my radio. Rest in Peace Marty, I love all of his songs.🎼🎵🎶♥️🌹

    This is just BS. Marty's band members stayed with him more than any other star. These member were with him from the beginning till the end except for Sykes who left in the 79;s: Don Winters (back up vocals and guitar), Bobby Sykes (acoustic guitar), Jack Pruett (electric guitar). He had 3 different pedal steel players in the 50's, 60's and 70's. Same with drummers and bass players.

    He had a wild side no doubt but his good deeds outweighed all of them. What a great singer will always be remembered.
  • Don’t worry about me! I got to see him when I was fifteen and I’ve never forgotten that day!

  • @stevediduck9963
    I’ve always liked Marty Robins. I liked every song he ever wrote and sang. My favourite song is EL PASO. I NEW HE WAS A RACE CAR DRIVER. I always felt he was a little different. I find it hard to believe he had a dark side. He died way too soon.
  • So after 40years you came out with this shit. Let the man rest in peace. Just enjoy his music.
  • @gussplat
    thanks SOOO Much for this...i LOVE Marty !!

    I’m kinda surprised there was no mention of Marty growing up in Glendale, AZ. In the 90’s there was a push by the city big wigs to rename Grand Avenue (the Main thoroughfare through town) to Marty Robbins Lane. Many of Marty’s song mention AZ or AZ cities. His song “Ride Cowboy Ride” mentions 5 AZ cites. I always get chocked up when I hear Marty’s tribute to the heroes at the Alamo with his song ‘Ballad of the Alamo’. Love his song writing and his voice was one of the smoothest baritone voices of all time. 👍🏼 🎤 🎶 ❤😁
