RIP Gambler

I've certainly spent more than enough time talking about modern music and how much of it sucks on this page over the years, but maybe not enough time talking about how some get it right, especially the old guard that actually had to pay their dues.

Kenny Rogers was certainly one of those guys.

From Wikipedia;

Kenneth Ray Rogers (August 21, 1938 – March 20, 2020) was an American singer, songwriter, actor, record producer, and entrepreneur. He was elected to the Country Music Hall of Fame in 2013. Rogers was particularly popular with country audiences but also charted more than 120 hit singles across various music genres, and topped the country and pop album charts for more than 200 individual weeks in the United States alone. He sold over 100 million records worldwide during his lifetime, making him one of the best-selling music artists of all time. His fame and career spanned multiple genres: jazz, folk, pop, rock, and country. He remade his career, and was one of the most successful cross-over artists of all time.

You picked a fine time to leave us, rest easy gambler.
