  • Just Marty and his guitar singing two old classic country songs. 'Letter Edged In Black' dates from 1897 and was written by Hetty Nevada. It wasn't recorded until 1925 by Vernon Dalhart who later influenced Marty Robbins and many more country singers. Other versions followed in time by Bradley Kinkaid, Hank Snow and Jim Reeves.

    You can't fake talent, and you certainly can't fake emotion... This is...this is the sort of music you can't 'teach' your average 'aspirant' musician who ends up on VEVOtube..
    Straight from the heart.

    Country music has always been sneered at for its sincerity and heartwarming emotion, but singers like Marty, Jim Reeves, Slim Whitman, Charley Pride, Johnny Cash, Waylon Jennings and Merle Haggard to name just a few, are loved and revered around the world. Not forgetting Kitty Wells, Dolly Parton, Melba Montgomery, Patsy Cline, Tammy Wynette et al of the girl singers. To quote a blurb from a well known (now defunct) Sunday newspaper, 'All Human Life Is There.'

      Bad modern country music is what is sneered at. The proper classic country music that Marty Robbins and similar singers like Moon Mullican, Hank Williams, Jerry Lee Lewis, Jim Reeves, Jimmie Rodgers and Elvis Presley sang is universally respected and always was and will be. Also it is common that people do not realise a lot of the old styles as country music!

    D'you know what Carol? Marty has never (in my opinion) received the kudos his absolute brilliance deserved. He deserves to be on a par with Nat King Cole, Andy Williams, Vic Damone, Al Martino, Bobby Darin, Perry Como or whoever, but unfortunately the bias against country music (especially here in the UK) probably counts against him.

    The record I have of this lovely song is by Slim Whitman, have also heard another great country singer singing it Hank snow, but as much as I love Marty (he was my late husband's favourite) singing it I prefer Slims version best but all three are great.
