"West Texas Tears" was written by Famed Nashville Songwriter Scott Turner as a Tribute to his best friend Marty Robbins. Scotty presented this song to Marty’s son Ronnie Robbins as a remembrance of the man who brought Big Iron, and the Streets of Laredo a little bit closer to us all. Recorded in Nashville with Gary Buck as Producer, Steve Richards was able to capture the Heart and Soul of one of America’s True Living Legends, the late great Marty Robbins.
