Marty RobbinsGunfighter Ballads & Trail Songs

Western balladry built on warm Spanish guitar and sweeping strings, the kind of sound that kicks up trail dust. El Paso is a four-and-a-half-minute epic of love and death in the Old West that won the Grammy, its melody galloping toward a doomed finish. Big Iron lays out a ranger's showdown over a loping rhythm and found a whole new life through Fallout: New Vegas. Cut in a single eight-hour session in April 1959. A campfire and a six-shooter in song form.
