Never was a huge fan of Marty Robbins, but I fell in love with "El Paso" because it was remade on one of my Mom's Johnny Horton albums. I can't hear the name Marty Robbins without associating the degrees of separation and humming my favorite song from that Johnny Horton LP.

The mental image of an alligator spewing cannonballs was just radical for a little boy in the 60s.
Oh, my, that one brings back a lot of memories for me, too, Duane! My dad had that song on a 45 (remember those?!) and it got played over and over and over at our house. To this day, if I happen to hear it on the country oldies station, I just can't stop myself from singing along -- loudly. It's just forever imprinted on my brain.
Another Johnny Horton classic, and continuing my virtual trip from New Orleans to El Paso to......I bet you can guess.

I loved the titillating way he avoided saying the swear word "hell." Kinda like "H ... E ... double hockey sticks."
Also, I love the realism of that outfit. Picture a platoon of soldiers dressed like that!
I love it!
Hehehe. My dad was just an overgrown kid himself (ahem, well, still is, lol), and he used to take delight in singing out loud the word H-E-L-L where Johnny Horton had left it to the imagination. Us kids would just roll our eyes...
