What Are You Listening To?

[Music Head]

from my library (vinyl)



Dontcha love those smooth country sounds of Kenny Rogers? I do. But you're not gonna find 'em here. Nothing close
to country on this album. Yet this came in at #3 on the country charts. I'll never understand 'em. #18 on the pop
charts which makes a little more sense. Even that's an undeserving ranking for me. His 11th solo album and the last
with Liberty Records, then moving up to RCA. Could be my least favorite Kenny Rogers album, and it goes platinum.
Even the smash hit of the title track with Sheena Easton barely get's a like for me. Decent song, but it belongs to
Seger. One other cover that I know of, You Are So Beautiful, one of the five do not likes. Five likes are not
enough to give the album a passing grade. That title track with Sheena was a #1 country and #6 pop hit. Two other
singles of All My Life and Scarlet Fever, which is my favorite, but still only a like. There is no clip for that.
Lionel Richie makes a writing contribution with How Long. Had forgotten that Billy Preston was a co-writer of You
Are So Beautiful. Joe Cocker's version still wins out for me.
