A collection of unreleased songs from Kenny Rogers’ archives that tells the story of the love, life, loss and faith between Kenny and his wife, Wanda, and their two children.
The album features the long sought after “Goodbye” written by Lionel Richie, interpretations of Eric Clapton’s “Wonderful Tonight” and “I Wish It Would Rain” originally recorded by The Temptations, and “Tell Me That You Love Me” a “lost” duet between Kenny and Dolly Parton.
GRAMMY® Award-winning superstar Kenny Rogers’ career spanned more than 60 years, crossing country, pop, rock, and soul. From his early days with The First Edition to global superstardom as a solo artist, he became one of the best-selling musicians of all time. With classics like “Lucille,” “The Gambler,” and “Islands in the Stream,” Rogers built a legacy rooted in storytelling, humility, and emotional truth.
Released more than 45 years ago, “The Gambler” became the song that defined Kenny Rogers’ extraordinary career — a masterclass in storytelling wrapped in melody. Its unforgettable chorus and timeless life lessons earned Kenny a Grammy Award and cemented his place in music history. Decades later, the song’s wisdom about risk, resilience, and knowing when to walk away still speaks to every generation.
Now, this iconic classic rides again — reimagined with a bold new remix that brings its legendary vocals to a fresh, contemporary sound.
Before the Gambler, There Was The First Edition
Long before his solo superstardom, Kenny Rogers helped lead The First Edition — a boundary-breaking band blending psychedelic rock, country, folk, and pop. Hits like “Just Dropped In (To See What Condition My Condition Was In)” revealed an artist unafraid to experiment and evolve.
With the band’s catalog now streaming, a new generation can rediscover the roots of an extraordinary career.
