Description
This 2CD set anthologises Marty Robbins' entire recorded output during 1961-62, featuring: four LPs and six hit singles. Much of this material is difficult to find elsewhere on CD, with the 'Portrait Of Marty' album making its CD debut herein.
By 1961, Marty was firmly established as the most successful C&W/Pop/R&R crossover artist in the United States, renowned for his epic "Gunfighter & Western" songs. He subsequently embarked upon an unlikely 'experimental' phase, in which he explored other musical directions.
This is reflected in the four LPs included, 'Just A Little Sentimental', 'Marty After Midnight' (both of which featured Marty performing Standards), 'Portrait Of Marty' (a musically eclectic set, devised to showcase his versatility) and 'Devil Woman' (a mainstream C&W/Pop album, titled after one of his biggest-ever hits).
