Kenny Rogers

Find out who every country's top old-school country artist is.

Kenny Rogers' farewell tribute concert is coming to DVD.

On Nov. 15, 1978, Rogers' multi-platinum-selling album 'The Gambler' was released.

Rogers' songs are timeless.

When your head gives a song more spins than your local radio station, that song becomes what's called an "earworm."

Not every artist finds country success when coming in from a different genre ... but these men and women did!

Just like big hair and Spandex, country music was alive and well in the '80s, celebrating true love, simple pleasures and American pride.

Officially, Rogers' last call was in Oct. 2017.

For the two chart weeks dated Oct. 29 and Nov. 5, 1983, Rogers and Parton pulled off quite a feat.

He nearly gave up on a huge, huge hit.

He wasn't the first country star to record the song ... and he nearly passed on it himself.

He had expensive taste in real estate and the money to back it up.
