Marty Robbins: The Story Of My Life (& Ray Conniff)

1-CD with 16-page booklet, 16 tracks. Playing time approx. 38 mns.

In 1956 Marty's versions of Singing The Blues was scooped by Guy Mitchell. Marty knew he could reach the pop audience as easily as Mitchell and he demanded the chance. He was brought
to New York to record with Mitch Miller and Ray Conniff. The results speak for themselves and they're collected here in 16 titles including A White Sport Coat, The Story Of My Life,
Once A Week Date, Just Married, The Blues Country Style, Teenage Dream, Ain't I The Lucky One, She Was Only Seventeen, and The Hanging Tree. Classic Fifties pop!

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.
