"There was 40 feet between them when they stopped to make their play, And the swiftness of the ranger is still talked about today." I get goosebumps every time i hear that part, this song is way too good.

@ob2kenobi388 11 месяцев назад

And the next lines-what a perfect, original way to describe the event! "Texas Red had not cleared leather 'fore a bullet fairly ripped, And the Ranger's aim was deadly with the Big Iron on his hip." He sings it so quickly and so concisely that you can almost see it happen in slow motion! Nearly 3 minutes of buildup for a climax that takes only two lines to happen!

When you listen to Marty's story songs , you don't realize it but the guitar tells a lot of the story. Grady Martin played the guitar for Marty and he was genius at creating a background mood with his guitar.

@staneads8330 2 года назад

Marty Robbins actually pioneered the use of guitar distortion quite by accident. It's in the song "Don't Worry" which is a song about a romance breakup. It's a masterpiece, and I consider it his greatest work. Do a reaction to it and I guarantee you that the commenters will tell you the story of the first fuzz-tone in recorded music!

@44mickd 2 года назад

Marty Robbins was my dads favorite singer, “white sport coat” and “Don’t worry bout me” are a different genre you might try.

@webbtrekker534 2 года назад

I remember "Don't worry about me" according a story I remember, an amp blew out during the recording and made the guitar solo very distorted. We'd never heard anything like that in 1961 and the kids loved it and Marty had a hit.

When I was little (5-6) "A White Sport Coat" was my favorite song.

@schrodingersgat4344 2 года назад

@@webbtrekker534 There's some footage from his show, where he ribs the guitsteel player about it "I told you to get that fixed" Funny part: It was Robbins who insisted they keep it on the song. The producer hollered for a new amp and Marty wouldn't hear of it.

@nordogvids 2 года назад

When I was in grade school (60 yrs ago), The Ballad of the Alamo by Marty Robbins was my favorite song. I remember it as the first song that "touched" me. It was the bravery of those men, and the way Marty Robbins told the story that made me tear up with emotion.

Big Iron was released in 1960. Televisions were pretty widespread by then and the number one genre was Westerns: Wyatt Earp, Bonanza, Laramie, Mavarick, Cheyenne, Have Gun Will Travel, Wagon Train, The Rifleman, Rawhide, Bonanza, Gunsmoke, Death Valley Days. Am I leaving any out?

@webbtrekker534 2 года назад

I'm almost 76 and I grew up on Radio and listened to many of those shows on Radio first. Gunsmoke, The Cisco Kid, Lone Ranger, Sky King, Red Ryder, Paladin, etc. We got our TV in 1953 and many of those show then began dual producing programs. Many of the Radio stars couldn't make the transition to TV though Duncun Renaldo did make the shift to TV with the Cisco Kid. (Trivia: Even though there was no color TV in those days the program was filmed in color.)

"You Gave Me a Mountain" by Marty Robbins was covered by Elvis Presley and is included in his "Elvis: Aloha From Hawaii" concert. It is one of the saddest songs ever written and is a magnificent performance. Several reactors have reacted to it. Warning that it might get you teared up. Beautiful and sad song. "My Woman, My Woman, My Wife" is almost as sad and beautiful. It was Marty's FOURTEENTH number one country single!

@artfisk3 2 года назад

country and western !! grew up on this . "don't worry about me " do this one please

@garystover7129 Год назад

The voice of Marty Robbins telling a great Western story. This ain't Country, this is Western. And the man playing guitar is Grady Martin, the finest session guitarist in Nashville. He always had work and he always had time for Marty. It was sung around 1960.

@patrickoxford682 2 года назад

The man with the big iron on his hip was an Arizona Ranger. Texas had rangers too. The were a combination of state police and militia. They fought crime as individuals and Indians (Native Americans) by companies or smaller groups. They were employees of the state.

@jackedwards7420 2 года назад

Harri, there is one singer that no one has done a reaction to I don't think, Ken Curtis, who starred as Festus in Gunsmoke! He was a fabulous western singer who fronted The Sons of the Pioneers after Roy Rogers left to concentrate on movies and TV! PLEASE check him out and react!

@jeannettestogner5164 2 года назад

Another Marty Robbins classic! Marty could sing the phone book and have a hit song. He was so versatile, and could sing any genre of song and make it uniquely his own. Please keep reacting to Marty - he's so amazing!

@jerryadams6799 2 года назад

you essentially need to complete the El Paso trilogy since you did the first part already :) the girl from that one has her own story to tell and then a modern man flying over el paso has a supernatural dream about the cowboy from the el paso song.

Marty Robbins was my favorite singer, he had such a beautiful voice. He wrote other types of songs too, there is a Country Roads TV video where he plays the piano and sings one of my favorites "Begging to You". "Don't Worry" is another great song I think you would like.

Both great songs..also DEVIL WOMAN..actually too many to mention

@moonbeam2062 2 года назад

Another great, great gunfighter song you should do is "Gene Pitney - (The Man Who Shot) Liiberty Valance" The song came out the same year of the movie (1962) which was based on a 1953 Short Story.

@wayne_twentyfive 2 года назад

Yep, great song ! .. And when Harri gets there, he should keep going down the Gene Pitney rabbit hole .. That man was a legend and has so many more classic songs to react to .. ( I'm Gonna Be Strong, Yesterday's Hero, It Hurts To Be In Love, 24 Hours To Tulsa, etc ) .. Wayne

Enjoyed your appreciative review of the greatest balladeer ever associated with country music. Marty was the most versatile of singers in both his vocal and songwriting ability; songs you should sample of his are many, but give 'Devil Woman', 'Girl From Spanish Town', 'The Master's Call', 'The Chair', 'Don't Worry' and there are many more.

@sonia4641 2 года назад

Bobby Sykes and Don Winters are the superb backing singers on most(all?) of Marty's classic hits. There are some live performances on You Tube if you want to see them. For storytelling your need to check out the two other songs from the El Paso Trilogy. Three superb songs from the same story! I love El Paso, of course, but listen to the other two just as much, and with as much awe at the music/craft/voice/storytelling. Feleena is about the woman of the story, and El Paso City is, well, I'll let you find out, but unique and unexpected, while still being in the same vein. Sort of. The concept, Marty's voice, and the subtle harmonies of Bobby and Don snever fail to give me goosebumps. Do check them both out in due course! The live version of El Paso City is great for seeing the three work together vocally, but the 70s clothes are a bit distracting, so suggest you listen to the studio version first!

@jacka.mullinjr.2091 2 года назад

Please do "the Girl with Gardenias in her Hair" it is one of my favorite songs by Marty Robbins.

@ste.6026 2 года назад

El Paso is a trilogy of songs, 'El Paso' (1959) is the the first part... 'Feleena ( From El Paso)' 1966 is part 2 & 'El Paso City' 1976 being the final installment, all three songs are fantastic and of the same quality... 'They're Hanging Me Tonight', 'Devil Woman', 'Tonight Carmen', 'Time Goes By'' and many others should be high on any Marty Robbins playlist...

@theway.2634 2 года назад

There were a few singers that embraced the old west, American history, and some world history. Marty Robbins was one of if not the best. Those artists were responsible for my love of History and American history. After 3rd grade they helped me work on math in history class or sneak in a nap. The teachers quizzed me about that weeks class work then tested me on the next weeks class work. Get your kids to listen to storytelling from artist like this

Marty Robbins main genre was country, but he had a number of pop crossover hits as well. "El Paso" went to #1 in pop and "Don't Worry" went to #3. A good reaction would be to "Don't Worry". It's a technically groundbreaking song, with the use of guitar distortion at the bridge of the song.

@knokname6466 2 года назад

In my mind (or to my way of thinking), Marty Robbins wasn't a singer, e was a Balladeer-- the man who told the story behind the songs and legends. One of my favorites is "Mr. Shorty", kind of a cross song/ballad. Also, his 20th Century Drifter album is full of great, Marty Robbins classics that joins two centuries of living, explains a lot of his (at the time) current life. He died too young and the world was deprived of more of his imagination and talent, both with guitar and vocals.
