More Gunfighter Ballads and Trail Songs is a studio album by country music singer Marty Robbins. It was released in 1960 by Columbia Records as a sequel to Robbins's 1959 hit album Gunfighter Ballads and Trail Songs.
In Billboard magazine's annual poll of country music disc jockeys, More Gunfighter Ballads was rated No. 9 among the "Favorite C&W Albums" of 1960.[2] The Pensacola News-Journal in September 1960 called it "one of the better releases of recent months."[3]
AllMusic gave the album a rating of four-and-a-half stars.[4] Reviewer Bruce Eder noted that "it is similar to the earlier album, with the sound a little more stripped down in the vocal department and perhaps less romanticized than the earlier record.."[4]
The opening track is "San Angelo". Columbia representative F. W. Stubblefield traveled to San Angelo, Texas, in July 1960, to present Mayor Paul Hudman with a copy of the album.[5]
