marty robbins
although by 1960 robbins' output was largely country music, his initial hits like "singing the blues", "knee deep in the blues", "the story of my life", "she was only seventeen", and "a white sport coat and a pink carnation" were generally regarded as more pop/teen idol material than his hits from 1960 onwards ("el paso" etc.). his 1957 recording of "a white sport coat and a pink carnation" sold over one million copies, and was awarded a gold record.
