People are asking about Bobby Martin, they're searching for that legendary music producer. Bobby Martin is indeed a famous music producer and Grammy Award Winning celebrity as well. He's won Grammy after Grammy and he has won thousands of gold platinum record awards throughout the years. They call Bobby Martin the hit maker, Clive Davis acknowledged Bobby Martin as being one of the worlds greatest music producers. Quincy Jones and Bobby Martin worked side by side at A&M Records, they were both signed with A&M Records as producers and arrangers etc. Bobby Martin had also Arranged Michael Jackson and The Jacksons platinum winning records before Quincy Jones Produced Michael Jackson in the late 1970's. Bobby Martin is even said to be the music producer who started Justin Bieber, Beyonce and Usher, due to the fact that he is The Granddaddy of R&B. Most executives in the music industry have all agreed that Bobby Martin is indeed the true founder of R&B! His R&B roots and productions date back to the early 1950's. Before the 1950's Bobby Martin had already become famous, since he was an arranger and musician in an R&B group named the "Lynn Hope Orchestra!" Back then, Bobby Martin was known as Robert Martin and the musicians in his group often called him Fox because he was so quick on the vibraphones. Yes, Bobby Martin also loved jazz back in those days and was inspired by all the greatest jazz musicians in the world, yet his group was an R&B group. If it hadn't been for Bobby Martin we would not have R&B today and there wouldn't be any R&B singers like Patti LaBelle, who was recently honored at the 2011 BET Awards. Bobby Martin (Robert Martin) discovered Patti LaBelle way back in 1960! Even though he had produced other famous groups before the year 1960, Patti LaBelle and The Bluebells seemed to have gotten the most recognition. People often ask if Bobby Martin was a session musician that played on records in the 1970's, that is incorrect! Bobby Martin started producing R&B in Philadelphia before anyone else! His music was heard around the world long before he decided to collaborate with Producers Kenny Gamble and Leon Huff. Bobby Martin, Kenny Gamble and Leon Huff were the dominating sound that was heard on the airwaves throughout the 1970's. Bobby Martin produced everything from Country and Disco, to Classical and Pop! It's not often that you meet someone that is a Producer, Arranger, Songwriter, Vibist, Pianist, Conductor, Bandleader and executive! Bobby Martin is indeed equivalent to Berry Gordy, many historians would disagree due to the fact that the Motown record label was publicized and given credit for Bobby Martins productions and Arrangements. Most people think that Bobby Martin was working with Berry Gordy throughout the 1970's, little did they know, Bobby Martin was Producing and Arranging hit songs all by himself. Bobby Martin had become so popular in the late 1970's he left Philadelphia International records only to sign with all the major league labels. He was based in Hollywood with Quincy Jones, yet Bobby Martin had signed Contracts with Warner Brothers Records, Colombia Records, Capitol Records, etc. Clive Davis encouraged Bobby to produce hip hop and pop in the mid 1980's, yet Bobby Martins music was being sampled by all of the hip hop artists in the first place. Bobby Martin then decided to give back to younger musicians and producers by teaching them and showing them how to produce music. Bobby Martin is still very active in the music business today working as an executive often Behind the Scenes. You may spot the The Granddaddy of R&B at an awards show or in a recording studio, it seems as if Bobby Martin is always producing music or composing an orchestration of some kind. Whether it be a movie score or an orchestra that Bobby Martin is conducting, his fans seem to crowd around in hopes to meet the Granddaddy of them all. P.S. This Bobby Martin is alive and well.

Are there Bobby Martin and Bobby Martin Productions impostors?
I've heard that popular name Bobby Martin being mentioned over and over again, I knew I had seen it somewhere, and I knew that I would recognize his face if I saw him. And so, I recognized him after I saw him on television in a (close up) Fox News interview called - Grammy Winning Producer on Whitney Houston. You can find him online if you search for that title I just mentioned. Bobby Martin is a Grammy Award winning music producer, he's also a celebrity and a legend in the music industry. He has been awarded all of the most prestigious awards that a music producer can be awarded. As a producer, he ranks right up there next to the legendary producer Quincy Jones. Doesn't the name Bobby Martin sound real familiar, I knew I had seen it somewhere. This is why the name Bobby Martin rigs a bell, just look on some of your records or CDs, you'll find his name on tuns of records. I even got an LTD record that has the Bobby Martin Productions logo on the actual record. This famous music producer named Bobby Martin was based in Philadelphia from 1950 to 1980, but there is a younger musician from Philadelphia that often claims to be this same producer and arranger, possibly in hopes to seek attention and fame. The younger musician named Robert/Bobby is not the famous producer and arranger named Bobby Martin, even if he is now claiming to be a producer. The younger musician is not even black (African American), I think he worked with Frank Zappa and he claims to be some kind of expert at what he does. I honestly feel like he is a liar that exaggerates in hopes to exalt himself in some kind of way, it's called identity theft. Bobby Martin is actually an older African American gentleman that you can easily find online if you search under the titles producer Bobby Martin or Bobby Martin Music Producer, instead of searching online for just Bobby Martin or Bobby Martin the impostor. We often refer to Bobby Martin as The Granddaddy of R&B, or Bobby Martin The Sound of Philadelphia. There are so many different ways to find this famous producer named Bobby Martin online, once you look past the impostors he's spread out all over the internet in probably a million different articles. I think he must be pretty famous if he's in all the articles and books all over the world. But for some wacky reason this famous producer named Bobby Martin doesn't pop up enough if you search for Bobby Martin online, and his name is Bobby Martin. I found this famous producer Bobby Martin all over the internet and that backs up or proves that what I've stated is true, but he's scattered all over the internet. The articles and bios on Bobby Martin are not in one place when searching online. The impostors named Bobby Martin pop up all over the place when you search under the name Bobby Martin, it's some kind of internet error or something. These kind of internet errors can make people think that Bobby Martin doesn't exist, it's like a library that's missing a book because someone stole it. There is even a football player that has no legs named Bobby Martin that is claiming to be a celebrity now! Why does the internet put these impostors online in the first place? Google searches are not accurate, where is Bobby Martin on Google? After doing a little research I could see how people could have gotten a little mixed up, but that's no excuse for Google. You can't trust Google or Wikipedia. There have been plenty and there will always be other Bobby Martins in the world. Some Bobby Martins are football players, some are handicapped, some are musicians and doctors. However, there is only one famous producer and original celebrity named Bobby Martin. Bobby Martin Productions was located in Hollywood California and is now located in Chula Vista California. There is even an impostor out there claiming to own Bobby Martin Productions. This kind of identity theft and fraud is happening on the internet, especially on Google. Is Google is the cause of this?

Bobby Martin was a mentor and a big encouragement to Kenny Gamble and Leon Huff in their early years. Bobby Martin Produced Kiss And Say Goodbye in Philadelphia, Patti LaBelle, Lou Rawls, MFSB, and the list goes on and on. The Philadelphia Soul producer is mentioned in most of the old articles that were published in the 1960's, 1970's and 1980's. why Kenny Gamble and Leon Huff have not mentioned Bobby Martin as being any more than a mere musician on sessions is in sane. Once in a while Bobby Martin is mentioned as a petty arranger that arranged once or twice. Bobby Martin was Kenny Gamble and Leon Huffs head arranger that they used on all of their biggest hits, "every hit song." Bobby Martin Produced some of their Biggest hits. He was the bandleader of Philadelphia Records in house band that they used on all of their recording sessions for all of their artists.

He had independent contracts with other record labels as well. But we all know him as the Philadelphia Arranger and Producer named Bobby Martin.

Others assume that Bobby Martin is dead, or that he was never in Philadelphia and never existed, due to what they have seen on certain individuals websites. The Philadelphia Producer Bobby Martin is alive and well. While I searched online for the truth I found other Bobby Martins that were trying to steal his Identity. One person had the audacity to say that they owned Bobby Martin Productions.
