El Paso is a country and western ballad written and originally recorded by Marty Robbins, and first released on Gunfighter Ballads and Trail Songs in September 1959.
Today I recorded Did You See Jackie Robinson Hit That Ball.It was written and recorded in 1948 by Buddy Johnson, and released again in 1949 by the Count Basie orchestra. This is the first of the Go Get Your Voice songs from and about the early civil rights movement.For the Dodgers to sign an African-American man to play on their major league team took courage and foresight.he color walls were slowly beginning to come down and the Dodgers, along with Jackie Robinson were pioneers in much the same was as other courageous individuals like Rosa Parks. I love this song, and I love baseball. Its so far off the map of music I do, I thought it might be fun!
