Brought to New York by Wendell Hall, he worked tirelessly as a studio sideman, played on country music's first million selling record (\"The Prisoner's Song\"), wrote dozens of \"event ballads,\" and was probably responsible for the new romantic western/cowboy image, crafting songs for the genre as early as 1927. With his early partners, Dalhart and then Frank Luther, Robison recorded scores of classic early country music. In the 1930s, he became the first country artist to tour England, making early film shorts for British Pathe with his group, the Pioneers.
