MARTY ROBBINS WAS ONE OF THE MOST POPULAR AND SUCCESSFUL COUNTRY SINGERS FOR MOST OF HIS NEARLY FOUR-DECADE CAREER WHICH SPANNED FROM THE LATE 1940s TO THE EARLY 1980s. HE WAS ALSO AN EARLY "OUTLAW COUNTRY" PIONEER.

IN 1952, HE RELEASED HIS FIRST #1 COUNTRY SONG, "I'LL GO IT ALONE". FOUR YEARS LATER, HE RELEASED HIS SECOND #1 HIT "SINGING THE BLUES", AND ONE YEAR LATER, RELEASED TWO MORE #1 HITS, "A WHITE SPORTS COAT" AND "THE STORY OF MY LIFE". IN 1959, MARTY RELEASED HIS SIGNATURE SONG, "EL PASO", FOR WHICH HE WON THE GRAMMY AWARD FOR BEST COUNTRY & WESTERN RECORDING. THE SONG BEGAN MARTY'S ASSOCIATION WITH WESTERN BALLADRY, A STYLE WHICH WOULD BECOME A STAPLE OF HIS CAREER. LATER RELEASES THAT DREW CRITICAL ACCLAIM INCLUDE "DON'T WORRY", "BIG IRON", "DEVIL WOMAN" AND "HONKY TONK MAN", THE LAST FOR WHICH THE 1982 CLINT EASTWOOD FILM IS NAMED, AND WHICH MARTY MADE HIS FINAL APPEARANCE BEFORE HIS DEATH. OVER THE COURSE OF HIS CAREER, MARTY RECORDED MORE THAN 500 SONGS AND 60 ALBUMS, AND WON TWO GRAMMY AWARDS, WAS ELECTED TO THE COUNTRY MUSIC HALL OF FAME AND NASHVILLE SONGWRITERS HALL OF FAME.

IN 1959, MARTY RELEASED THE ALBUM "GUNFIGHTER BALLADS AND TRAIL SONGS" WHICH WAS CERTIFIED PLATINUM IN THE USA. IN 1960, MARTY FOLLOWED UP WITH THIS ALBUM WHICH DID NOT QUITE REACH THE SAME HEIGHTS ON THE CHARTS BUT STILL CLIMBED TO #20 IN THE USA. THIS SELECTION IS THE AUSTRALIAN VERSION OF THE ALBUM INCORPORATING THE SAME ARTWORK AS THE USA VERSION. THE SLEEVE IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION WITH ONLY TWO VERY MINOR SIGNS WEAR ALONG THE TOP EDGE. THE RECORD IS GRADED AS NEAR MINT. THERE ARE SEVERAL COPIES OF THIS ALBUM FOR SALE ON EBAY WITH ASKING PRICES FROM $30AUD UPWARDS.
