Marty, own name Martin David Robinson, was born was born in September 26, 1925, in the southwestern region of the United States, in state Arizona. Nickname of this state is rand Canyon State, but in Slovakia and Czech I think, most people know this state name from one famous comedy, western - Limonadovy Joe aneb Konska opera (Lemonade Joe). Unforgiven song - "Arizona, Arizona, that's all right men's zone". :O)
Marty became of 10 siblings. His childhood was formed by his father, who played on harmonica and also songs and stories, which his grandfather (Bob Heckle) spoke. But situation in family was very difficult, unhappilly his father was drunkard and it was main reason to divorce marriage. Marty interested in films of Gene Autry and his dream was to become singing cowboy too.
He left the family in age of 17-teen and sign on US Navy. All The Second World War he spent in Pacific and during this time he learned to play on guitar and to write songs.
After end of War, he left Army and started to play in clubs in Phoenix. During short time he had own TV show. One of his quests was also Little Jimmy Dickens. Jimmy was surprised of Marty and advice Columbia Records to sign exclusive contract with Marty Robbins. In 1952 studio released Marty's single Love Me Or Leave Me Alone.
The third Marty's single (I'll Go On Alone) became No.1 of Country Hit-parade in 1953 and next record I Couldn't Keep From Crying was in Top Ten.
He was also few times on scene of The Grand Ole Opry in Nashville and from 1953 he started to be permanent member of it. His next famous records were Pretty Words, That's All Right, Singing The Blues, Knee Deep In The Blues, The Story Of My Life, White Sport Coat, Teenage Dream, etc.
He triumphed on country scene and in same time he permeated to pop scene. You can see it on his records from 1958 She Was Only Seventeen and Stairway Of Love. His absolute famous song was El Paso.
In 1961 Marty recorded single Don't Worry. Next famous song was Devil Woman and brought him again to the top of Pop Hit-parades. In same year Marty recorded Ruby Ann. From that time Marty till his death, stayed only in country scene and brought other famous songs (Begging To You, Ribbon Of Darkness, Tonight Carmen, I Walk Alone, My Woman, My Woman, My Wife.
From 1972 Marty signed three years contract with Decca/MCA. From 1976 he recorded in Columbia Records again. He became on Top Ten with El Paso City and Among My Souvenirs.
You can also see Marty Robbins in movies as actor - The Gun And The Gavel, The Badge Of Marshal Brennan a Buffalo Gun. He showed in many TV shows and had a lot of concerts.
He had been known by kindness to fans. It's irony of destiny that in 1982 he brought new single You'll Never Get Out Of his World Alive. Only two months later, when his song named Some Memories Just Won't Die left Top 10, he died on heart attack.
Family life:
In 1948, Robbins married Marizona Baldwin and he dedicated her his song My Woman, My Woman, My Wife. They had two children - son Ronny (born 1949) and daughter Janet (born 1959). Both stay also in show business (daughter has a singing career in Los Angeles, son create records for recording studios Artic, Columbia, Epic), but they didn't achieve so large success as their father.
Marty Robbins was also very impassioned race car driver. He had show his passion also in movie, he played himself in Hell of Wheels.

Today is 27-th anniversary of death of one country icon - Marty Robbins (December 8, 1982). He emphasised unforgiven series of cowboy and Mexican ballads. He became to the Country Music Hall of Fame and his songs are still in hit-parades.
Holidays finished and we all are back at job. I'm sure, somebody of us spent free days on romantic way or dream's islands (see up) with perfect person.
My holidays were different, but also nice. I spent holidays on way. But perfect way, I think. I spent it in adventure parks in Europe, especially in Germany and Belgium. (And I recommend you Europa park in Rust.) But I don't like to write about parks. This blog isn't about that, but about music, especially in country and folk music.
It isn't list what you've waited. These names are names of Czech bands and singers. Yes, they are my favourite. And also Bee Gees and ABBA, but it isn't Folk or Country, as you know.
And what about American singers. I prefer John Denver.
During all history of country music, there are and were many famous singers and music bands.
Everybody knows some hitparade in every kind of music, as well in Country music. Every year there is official competition - Grammy Awards. It is rating of professionals in more categories.
Let's try to create some own TOP 5. Here are only four categories:
Singer - Man (Never mind if interpret is still alive or dead.)
Singer - Women (Never mind if interpret is still alive or dead.)
Music Band (Never mind if music band still exists or not.)
Song (during all rich country history)
Please write it to comments under this post. Everybody can nominate 5 nominees for each category.
The contest will be close after 2 month and results will be published asap.
In the end, there will be evaluation and one of the voting will have his link on this site for 4 months.
