Marty Robbins Singing Call Me Up

[Factnotfictionpeople]

I think that little harmonic at the end of the break was a kind of friendly 'Up yours!' from Bill Johnson. :-)

[signjay]

My mistake.He certainly would have done a great job on that one.

He DID record this- it's on the Bear Family box. Does anyone know who the rhythm and lead guitar players are? The rhythm player is also a fine harmony singer.

@signjay

He never recorded 'A Wound Time Can't Erase' is what I said.

Thanks for posting this great song. Personally, I love most of the old Marty Robbins 'Gunfighter' stuff - but tracks like this and 'The Shoe goes on the other foot tonight' are simply fantastic. I have to say - as a massive steel guitar fan - that Bill Johnson's playing is first class and, judging by his grin, he's enjoying playing too! Once again, many thanks. George.

It still puzzles me jed that Marty never recorded this song. A great recording by Stonewall Jackson anyhow and I also have great versions by Jack Greene, Don Gibson and Conway Twitty. I'd love to ask Bill himself why Marty never cut his classic song.

Tarquin45,

Thank you for this video!!! I've always LOVED Bill Johnson's classic steel turnaround on "A wound time can't erase" by Stonewall Jackson. Up until now, that was the only song I'd heared him play on. Now I see what a good player he was. Thank you!

Tarquin, I hope there's no end to your Marty Robbins material. I liked Martys mmusic as I grew up, now with your videos I can see how much he enjoyed singing and how much he put his heart into his music. What a superb backing band he had. No song was impossible to Marty, pity we don't have his like any more.

thanks again tarquin for this great song. it's so good to here different versions of his songs. country music is America's own but we English men can appreciate it to. Marty Robbins and Jim Reeves are the best voices country music has ever produced. thanks tarquin, ...much appreciated by many many world-wide fans of Marty
