Marty Robbins: Hawaii's Calling Me

1-CD with 12-page booklet, 28 tracks. Playing time approx. 76 mns.

Marty's two Hawaiian LPs, "Hawaii's Calling Me" and "Song Of The Islands" were among his best. His smooth vocals adapted well to the gentle lilt of Hawaiian music, and Marty recruited two of the best steel guitarists in Nashville, Jerry Byrd and Jim Farmer, to re-create the Hawaiian sound. The two original LPs are rounded out with Marty's first Hawaiian single, My Isle Of Golden Dreams/Aloha Oe, from 1953.
25 other titles include The Hawaiian Wedding Song, Drowsy Waters, Beyond The Reef, Down Where The Tradewinds Blow, Crying Steel Guitar Waltz, and Now Is The Hour.

Marty Robbins

Marty Robbins was a deeply private man: although he spent nearly thirty years in Nashville, Arizona remained his home, and behind the extroverted stage act lay a character who was hard to know, even shy. Born Martin David Robinson on 26 September 1925 near Glendale, Arizona – the twin of his sister Mamie – he identified all his life with his grandfather Texas Bob Heckle, a former Confederate and Texas Ranger.

Statistically his achievement is impressive: from 1952 to 1983 Robbins placed at least one record in the charts every single year, with more than twenty pop hits besides. Yet figures tell only half the story. From a career rooted in country music he made detours into gospel, rockabilly, Hawaiian, Latin and Caribbean music, western ballads and easy listening – and brought his unmistakable imprint to it all.

A Marty Robbins recording was usually identifiable as such within the first few bars. Beyond that, Robbins was one of the first country artists to take the business side of his career into his own hands. Add his passionate enthusiasm for stock-car racing, and one glimpses the many-sided life of this man – a life that began on the edge of the Arizona desert and ended in Nashville on the night of 8 December 1982, when heart disease claimed him.
