El Paso, City by the Rio Grande (1976)

Presented by The Convention and Visitors' Bureau of El Paso, this promotional film imparts the legend of El Paso that began in the 16th century with the early Spanish explorers and continues to the present day (1976). Country Music Hall of Famer Marty Robbins walks around El Paso, guitar in hand, stopping at historically significant sites to tell their story. He also highlights El Paso's cultural, tourist, and natural attractions, such as:The Tigua Indian Reservation, Ysleta Del Sur Pueblo; McKelligon Canyon Amphitheatre; and year-round trail riding. And of course, one of El Paso's major draws is its immediate proximity to Cuidad Juarez and all that city just over the border has to offer: mariachi, a highly-regarded dog racing track, fine local handicrafts, and bull-fighting.
