First I heard of his passing. First Edition stuff was the best IMO. Sad news.

Absolute BUMMER !!! RIP

I remember listening to WMAQ AM singing along to Kenny Rogers with my Dad....

RIP

i always enjoyed his duets with others.
R.I.P Gambler................

The first edition looked better too.
His was the kind of country music I can listen to, not so much the crap they call country now.

He did a real nice job with the song "Ruby".

It's interesting to hear the kudos for the First Edition. To me, they were a vocal group that managed to gain traction as an unhip group trying to be relevant with contemporary psychedelia. The rest of their output was ho-hum.

I much prefer his crossover Country output, but that was also during my coming of age, so it stands to reason.

and I as well.
