This is a DVD that no Marty Robbins fan should be without. Having said that, any lover of any kind of music can appreciate what a unique and gifted talent Marty was. The beauty of his voice allied to his super songwriting, combined with a charismatic appeal that makes it hard for anyone not to like him even if you are not a fan of Country and Western Music. There are 15 songs here from the mid 50's up to the late 70's taken from various shows which showcase many of his biggest hits that usually have Marty smiling his head off while he delivers the songs even if they are sad ones! The 'extras' include his induction to the Country Music Hall of Fame and a previously unseen interview by Marty which makes him come across as a thoroughly warm human being which he no doubt was. Well, what are you waiting for?! Just order it; you won't regret it.

Marty Robbins at the Opry Live-for all lovers of real country music
they dont show them like that anymore!!

If you enjoy Marty Robbins this is a MUST to own. The quality was great and so worth buying. You will learn things about Marty Robbins the general public didn't know plus hear him sing some of his best songs. I got to see and hear a great country singer that we lost way too soon. I am so glad I bought it.

Yes some good footage here of Marty doing performances at varuious stages in his carreer, though there are better ones on Youtube...especially the one where he is in the white Presley style jump suit!

A great voice...and his jocular stage style is very appealing.

This was just one way to honor a legend, watching him on the screen...He's still one of the best there was....Georgia

OMG!I can't get enough of my man Marty! If he hadn't passed on, I would have stolen him from Marizona! Seriously, Marty was a wonderful man, so sad his life was cut so short. I don't think he realized the severity of his health problems, but he said he was going to get as much out of his life as he could, because you don't know how many minutes you have on this earth. Ronny said, "Daddy probably lived 90 yrs. in the 57 yrs. he was alive and I believe he couldn't have summed it up in any better words.

I bought this a few months ago, and have watched it umpteen times! It includes
a lot of his very early performances, which are so interesting. It includes
all his famous songs, and the dates on the box when they were performed.

But it is the "Extra" at the end of the tape that is so fantastic.
There is a long 45 minute interview with Marty. He was so quiet-spoken, and
just so humble. I loved seeing how excited he got speaking of his Nascar
races !!! The interview is a lot of fun!! Marty ends the interview with
a joke, it is so good !!!
Then after the interview they tacked on the tape of him accepting his Induction
into the Country Music Hall of Fame. His short speech was so cute ! This dvd is very enjoyable.

I Love the pure voice of Marty Robbins and I miss him greatly and his performances on this DVD are legendary and very very good!

If you love Marty this DVD is for you!

He was a really good singer. The video is really good. Had a lot of his old songs on it. His voice was like no other!! Am really glad that I got it!!
