Post Description
Martin David Robinson (gekend als Marty Robbins) (Glendale (Arizona), 26 september 1925 - Nashville (Tennessee), 8 december 1982) was een Amerikaanse countryzanger, songwriter en muzikant. Hij wordt beschouwd als een van de populairste countrymuzikanten uit zijn tijd. Hij behaalde regelmatig de top van de country-hitlijsten en schreef ook pophits.
Nadat zijn militaire dienst eindigde in 1947, begon hij lokaal op te treden in Phoenix en kreeg zijn eigen televisieshow op KPHO-TV in Phoenix. Nadat countryzanger Little Jimmy Dickens te gast was in zijn show, bezorgde deze hem een platencontract bij Columbia Records. Dit was de start van een vijfendertigjarige carrière met veel nummer-1 hits en optredens in de Grand Ole Opry in Nashville, Tennessee.
Robbins trouwde op 27 september 1948 met Marizona Baldwin (11 september 1930 – 10 juli 2001) aan wie hij later het lied My Woman, My Woman, My Wife opdroeg. Ze kregen twee kinderen, Ronny en Janet.
In december 1982 kreeg Robbins zijn derde hartinfarct in dertien jaar en stierf in het hospitaal door complicaties na de hartoperatie.
Robbins werd in 1975 opgenomen in de Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame, in 1989 in de Western Music Association Hall of Fame, in 1982 in de Country Music Hall of Fame en in 2009 in America's Old Time Country Music Hall of Fame.
