Mitchell Joseph Torok (October 28, 1929 - November 16, 2017) was an American Country Music singer-songwriter, guitarist, artist and author, best known for his 1953 hit record "Caribbean".

His last hit record was "Instant Love" in 1966, produced by Jimmie Bowen.
He continued to write songs, usually working in partnership with his wife (she has used both Gayle Jones and Ramona Redd as pseudonyms), and some have been recorded by top artists including Skeeter Davis, Kitty Wells, Glen Campbell and even Dean Martin.
Hank Snow recorded "The Mysterious Lady From Martinique" on one of his last RCA albums and ‘Redneck’ was a Top 20 hit for Vernon Oxford in 1976.
