Marty Robbins

180 GRAM VINYL

INCLUDES 4 BONUS TRACKS

This quintessential release features Marty Robbins’ follow-up album to his successful Gunfighter Ballads and Trail Songs (1959): More Gunfighter Ballads and Trail Songs, originally issued on the Columbia label in the summer of 1960. The LP would peak at number 21 on the pop album charts, compared to the number 6 spot achieved by its predecessor. It is similar to the earlier album, with the sound a little more stripped down in the vocal department and perhaps less romanticized than the earlier record. This sensational album has been remastered and packaged in this very special collector’s edition, which also includes 4 bonus tracks from the same period.
