<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;">Marty, own name Martin David Robinson, was born was born in September 26, 1925, in the southwestern region of the United States, in state Arizona. Nickname of this state is rand Canyon State, but in Slovakia and Czech I think, most people know this state name from one famous comedy, western &#8211; Limonadovy Joe aneb Konska opera (<span style="font-style:italic;"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lemonade_Joe" target="_new">Lemonade Joe</a></span>). Unforgiven song &#8211; &#8220;Arizona, Arizona, that&#8217;s all right men&#8217;s zone&#8221;.  :O)
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;">Marty became of 10 siblings. His childhood was formed by his father, who played on harmonica and also songs and stories, which his grandfather (Bob Heckle) spoke. But situation in family was very difficult, unhappilly his father was drunkard and it was main reason to divorce marriage. Marty interested in films of Gene Autry and his dream was to become singing cowboy too. 
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;">He left the family in age of 17-teen and sign on US Navy. All The Second World War he spent in Pacific and during this time he learned to play on guitar and to write songs.
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;">After end of War, he left Army and started to play in clubs in Phoenix. During short time he had own TV show. One of his quests was also <span style="font-style:italic;">Little Jimmy Dickens</span>. Jimmy was surprised of Marty and advice Columbia Records to sign exclusive contract with Marty Robbins. In 1952 studio released Marty&#8217;s single <span style="font-weight:bold;">Love Me Or Leave Me Alone</span>.
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;">
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;width: 160px;" src="http://www.countryandfolk.com/images/marty robbins5.gif" border="0" alt="Marty Robbins" title="Marty Robbins"/>The third Marty&#8217;s single (<span style="font-weight:bold;">I&#8217;ll Go On Alone</span>) became No.1 of Country Hit-parade in 1953 and next record <span style="font-weight:bold;">I Couldn&#8217;t Keep From Crying</span> was in Top Ten.
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;">He was also few times on scene  of The Grand Ole Opry in Nashville and from 1953 he started to be permanent member of it. <br />His next famous records were <span style="font-weight:bold;">Pretty Words</span>, <span style="font-weight:bold;">That&#8217;s All Right</span>, <span style="font-weight:bold;">Singing The Blues</span>, <span style="font-weight:bold;">Knee Deep In The Blues</span>, <span style="font-weight:bold;">The Story Of My Life</span>, <span style="font-weight:bold;">White Sport Coat</span>, <span style="font-weight:bold;">Teenage Dream</span>, etc. 
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;">He triumphed on country scene and in same time he permeated to pop scene. You can see it on his records from 1958 <span style="font-weight:bold;">She Was Only Seventeen</span> and <span style="font-weight:bold;">Stairway Of Love</span>.  His absolute famous song was <span style="font-weight:bold;">El Paso</span>. 
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;">In 1961 Marty recorded single <span style="font-weight:bold;">Don&#8217;t Worry</span>. Next famous song was <span style="font-weight:bold;">Devil Woman</span> and brought him again to the top of Pop Hit-parades. In same year Marty recorded <span style="font-weight:bold;">Ruby Ann</span>. From that time Marty till his death, stayed only in country scene and brought other famous songs (<span style="font-weight:bold;">Begging To You</span>, <span style="font-weight:bold;">Ribbon Of Darkness</span>, <span style="font-weight:bold;">Tonight Carmen</span>, <span style="font-weight:bold;">I Walk Alone</span>, <span style="font-weight:bold;">My Woman, My Woman, My Wife</span>. 
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;">From 1972 Marty signed three years contract with Decca/MCA. From 1976 he recorded in Columbia Records again. He became on Top Ten with <span style="font-weight:bold;">El Paso City</span> and <span style="font-weight:bold;">Among My Souvenirs</span>.
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;">You can also see Marty Robbins in movies as actor &#8211; <span style="font-weight:bold;">The Gun And The Gavel</span>, <span style="font-weight:bold;">The Badge Of Marshal Brennan a Buffalo Gun</span>. He showed in many TV shows and had a lot of concerts.  
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;">He had been known by kindness to fans. It&#8217;s irony of destiny that in 1982 he brought new single <span style="font-weight:bold;">You&#8217;ll Never Get Out Of his World Alive</span>. Only two months later, when his song named <span style="font-weight:bold;">Some Memories Just Won&#8217;t Die</span> left Top 10, he died on heart attack.</p>
<p>Family life:
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;">In 1948, Robbins married <span style="font-style:italic;">Marizona Baldwin</span> and he dedicated her his song My Woman, My Woman, My Wife. They had two children &#8211; son Ronny (born 1949) and daughter Janet (born 1959). Both stay also in show business (daughter has a singing career in Los Angeles, son create records for recording studios Artic, Columbia, Epic), but they didn&#8217;t achieve so large success as their father.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;">Marty Robbins was also very impassioned race car driver. He had show his passion also in movie, he played himself in <span style="font-weight:bold;">Hell of Wheels</span>.

<p><span style="font-weight:bold;">Hello everybody.</span>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;">Holidays finished and we all are back at job. I&#8217;m sure, somebody of us spent free days on romantic way or dream&#8217;s islands (see up) with perfect person.
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;">My holidays were different, but also nice. I spent holidays on way. But perfect way, I think. I spent it in adventure parks in Europe, especially in Germany and Belgium. (And I recommend you Europa park in Rust.) But I don&#8217;t like to write about parks. This blog isn&#8217;t about that, but about music, especially in country and folk music.
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;">Last time I advertised <span style="font-style:italic;"><a href="<br />http://www.countryandfolk.com/2009/07/country-competition.html&#8221; target=&#8221;_new&#8221;>Competition</a></span>. 
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;">It hasn&#8217;t so response as I&#8217;ve waited, but never mind. I thought of it and prepared own list and here it is:
<ul>
<li><span style="font-style:italic;"><a href="http://www.countryandfolk.com/2008/03/rangers-plavci.html" target="_new">Rangers</a></span></li>
<li><span style="font-style:italic;"><a href="http://www.countryandfolk.com/2008/02/jiri-grossmann.html" target="_new">Jiří Grossmann</a></span></li>
<li><span style="font-style:italic;"><a href="http://www.countryandfolk.com/2008/07/taxmeni.html" target="_new">Taxmeni</a></span></li>
<li><span style="font-style:italic;"><a href="http://www.countryandfolk.com/2008/04/fesaci.html" target="_new">Fešáci</a></span></li>
<li><span style="font-style:italic;"><a href="http://www.countryandfolk.com/2008/04/waldemar-matuska-i.html" target="_new">Waldemar Matuška</a></span></li>
</ul>
<p>. 
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;">It isn&#8217;t list what you&#8217;ve waited. These names are names of Czech bands and singers. Yes, they are my favourite. And also <span style="font-style:italic;"><a href="http://www.countryandfolk.com/2008/03/bee-gees-legendary-band-part-1.html" target="_new">Bee Gees</a></span> and ABBA, but it isn&#8217;t Folk or Country, as you know.
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;">And what about American singers. I prefer <span style="font-style:italic;"><a href="http://www.countryandfolk.com/2008/10/creator-of-country-anthem-i.html" target="_new">John Denver</a></span>. </p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;">But, &#8230;<br />Unfortunately this annual was different. 
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;">This annual has number 13th and somebody believes that this number is unlucky.
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;width: 220px;" src="http://www.countryandfolk.com/images/pohoda09a.jpg" border="0" alt="Bazant Pohoda" title="Bazant Pohoda"/> <img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;width: 180px;" src="http://www.countryandfolk.com/images/pohoda09d.jpg" border="0" alt="Bazant Pohoda" title="Bazant Pohoda"/>

Very strong wind detach O2 Arena. This accident was during concert of AMO and United Flavours. In that time there were more than one hundreds people. </p>
<p><span style="font-weight:bold;">What&#8217;s happened?</span> </p>

<p style="float:right; margin:10px 10px 10px 10px;">Official news by TA3: <br /><span style="font-style:italic;"><block>Police Investigation Into Tragedy at Pohoda Underway</p>
<p>Bratislava, July 19 (TASR) &#8211; Police continue to investigate the tragic accident that occurred at the Pohoda music festival on Saturday afternoon and claimed the life of a 29-year-old man from Piestany (Trnava region), spokesman for Police Corps Presidium Martin Korch said on Sunday.</p>
<p>There have been no new findings concerning the accident at Slovakia&#8217;s largest open-air music festival, he added.</p>
<p>A severe storm accompanied by gusts of wind hit the area at around 4:00 p.m. on Saturday, bringing down a large tent covering the O2 Arena. Crowds of people were underneath the canopy at the time.</p>
<p>According to an eye-witness, the O2 Arena acted as a kind of &#8220;flytrap&#8221;, as &#8220;it was the only place at Pohoda where a gig was underway at the time of the accident, so thousands of festival-goers pushed their way in there.&#8221;</p>
<p>He added that the organisers warned people that they should gather at the edges of the tent, so that they could leave quickly if advised to do so. &#8220;Unfortunately, the gusts of wind rushed in so quickly that they didn&#8217;t manage to warn the people under the tent.&#8221;</p>
<p>In addition to the death of the young man, three more young people sustained severe injuries and were operated on in hospitals in Trencin, Zilina and Martin (Zilina region). Another 18 people remain in the Trencin Hospital&#8217;s trauma ward. A total of 40 people were admitted into nine hospitals. Another 52 festival-goers were given first aid.</p>
<p>The 13th annual Pohoda festival was called off after the accident, and the festival participants were evacuated.</p>
<p>&#8220;We took some 10,000 people from the airport to Trencin railway station, to the Druzba culture house and to Opatovce (Trencin region),&#8221; said spokesperson the Trencin branch of Slovak Bus Transport (SAD) Ivana Strelcova. All the public-transport buses from the town and neighbouring area were used to evacuate the festival-goers, she stressed.</p>

<p style="float:right; margin:10px 10px 10px 10px;"><iframe src="http://rcm.amazon.com/e/cm?t=jurasvajtravp-20&#038;o=1&#038;p=14&#038;l=st1&#038;mode=music&#038;search=festival&#038;fc1=322121&#038;lt1=_blank&#038;lc1=7C7854&#038;bg1=F7F2A9&#038;f=ifr" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0" width="160" height="600" border="0" frameborder="0" style="border:none;" scrolling="no"></iframe></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;">Summer is here and many people only wait for a weekend, when they can go to dance or to listen music on some summer festivals.</p>
<p><span style="font-weight:bold;">From history of this the greatest festival in Slovakia:</span>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;">Michal Kascak is musician and progenitor of this fest. He was a member of music band Bez ladu a skladu. During 90-teen he had established his own festival and kept his dream.  
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;">Everything began in 1997, when started the 1-st annual of Bažant Pohoda festival. It was only small fest, only about 2000 guests, one main stage and show of some Slovak and Czech music bands. Nothing special. Place of fest &#8211; town station.
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;">Next year brought some changes, one of them was changing of place &#8211;  to Areál Pod Sokolicami, the other was dance stage. The 2-nd annual and 3000 guests, 9 music bands.
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;">The 3-rd annual and 8000 guest, 22 famous bands as Skulpey (USA), Werk (A), Másfél (H), Ole lukkoye (RUS), Auktyon (RUS), Jaroslav Filip (SK) Varga + Šeban+ Rózsa + Buntaj (SK) and others.  
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;">Year 2000 brought other changes. The4th annual had name Topvar Pohoda fest and it impel to change place. Again. There was main stage (alternative, rock, pop, world music, dance music), rock stage (rock, punk, alternative, pop) and two dance stages. Music bands : Bomfunk MCS (FIN), Vinx (USA), ISM (GB), Zóna A (SK), Homage and Jaro Filip (SK), Will White – Propellerheads (GB), Lol Hammond – Girl eats boy (GB), 808 state (GB) etc. Total 19 bands on main stage. Rock stage and 19 bands (Twinkles (ITA)). The first time there were escort actions: vernisage of photograhy from Pohoda 99, happenings, performance, graffiti; cinema in areal, tatoo, piercing, literatúre, CD shop, tea-room, internet cafe, adrenalin sports, competitions, exhibitions, bungee jumping, tandem jumps, hot-flue balon, motocars, bungee running, skate park, air castle. 20 000 guests per day. General partner was Topvar company (that&#8217; s why name Topvar Pohoda). 
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;">In 2001 festival grew up, they added other stage (there were now main stage, dance stage 1, dance stage 2, dance stage 3, rock/hip hop stage and rock open-air stage).
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;width: 300px;" src="http://www.countryandfolk.com/images/pohoda3.jpg" border="0" alt="Bazant Pohoda" title="Bazant Pohoda"/>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;">From 6-th annual to these days the name of festival is Bažant Pohoda, because general partner became Zlatý Bažant company (producer of bier). Stages: main stage: alternative, rock, pop, ska, dance music; Kofola stage: world music, rock, punk, alternatíve, pop, ska; Smint stage: techno; Durex stage: house, drum´n´bass, techhouse; Kenvelo stage: experiment, chill out, nu jazz, minimal, Blaupunkt stage: live acts, alternatíve, hip-hop, rock; Jah Jam stage: reggae, dance hall, dub, ska &#8211; 20000 guests per day.
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;">The 7th was similar as 6th. But on 8th people met on new place &#8211; airport. From that time, festival is still on airport. More place, more guests, more fun, more music, more attractions. 
<ul>
<li>Stages: Bažant stage: alternative, rock, pop, ska, dance music;</li>
<li>Kofola stage: world music, reggae;</li>
<li>Chio stage: rock, punk, alternative;</li>

</ul>

Always there was much fun, good music and each annuals had left a lot of unforgoten memorries in everybody, who was there. </p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;">Next reorganization of the group became with leaving of Karel Zich, in season 1973/74. Spirituál started to show with tramp group (later named Brontosauři) with brothers Jan and František Nedvěd and Zdenka Tosková. Next year leaved Jarka Hadrabová and came Eva Lifková.
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;width: 100px;" src="http://www.countryandfolk.com/images/spiritualkvintet17.jpg" border="0" alt="Spiritual Kvintet" title="Spiritual Kvintet"/>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;">In 1980 Eva Lifková married and went to Francie, in its stead became Irena Budweiserová. Very short time, we had seen also Lenka Slabá  and Jan Nedvěd in the group. 
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;width: 100px;" src="http://www.countryandfolk.com/images/spiritualkvintet16.jpg" border="0" alt="Spiritual Kvintet" title="Spiritual Kvintet"/>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;">During revolutionary events (November 23, 1989), the group sang on Prague squares, (two presidents sang with them Vaclav Havel and George Bush senior). For next american president Bill Clinton, the group showed in Reduta in January 1994. In this time, the member was Karel Zich again. František Nedvěd became in 1992 after his brother after recording of album Rajská zahrada.<br />In 2000 Olda Ortinský leaved Spiritual, came Jirka Cerny, who was band-master of music band C&#038;K Vocal.
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;width: 100px;" src="http://www.countryandfolk.com/images/spiritualkvintet19.jpg" border="0" alt="Spiritual Kvintet" title="Spiritual Kvintet"/>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;">Year 2004 was written by black letters to the history of this band. This year, exactlu in July 13, their member Karel Zich drowned in the Medi, during his diving trip. It wasn´t the first time, what the band lost one of the members (two of the foundation-members, manager of the band), but it was the first time, what Spiritual had to say good-bye to one of the youngest members from actual arrangement. 
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;">It was very hard leave-taking. Karl Zich was great singer and player (his nick was Elvis Presley of Czecho-Slovakia).  
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;">In September 2004 became Jiří Holoubek to the band from Relief.
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 35.4pt;">The next member Oldřich Orlický dead in May 3, 2006. </p>
