Performer: Crystal Gayle
Distributor: Phantom Import Distributi Notes: Crystal Gayle gained pop/country crossover stardom in the '70s with hits like "Don't It Make My Brown Eyes Blue," but like so many great country artists, she had a strong gospel side to her musical personality. That spiritual side was expressed in the 1997 album HE IS BEAUTIFUL, where Gayle brought her sweet, supple vocal style to a batch of faith-based tunes. The music touches on pop, country, and gospel simultaneously, but the purity of intent is always there. The 2008 reissue sweetens the deal with two bonus tracks.
Brenda Gail Webb, renamed Crystal Gayle at the suggestion of her older sister, Loretta Lynn, had a number of high-charting country hits in the early-to-mid 1970s. She became a mega-star and the first platinum-selling female country singer when her torchy 1977 single, "Don't it Make My Brown Eyes Blue," topped both the country and pop charts. With her sweet, expressive vocals, glamorous good looks, and trademark floor-length hair, she was the country crossover star of the decade, and continued to release hits through the '80s, tallying 18 number ones and many more Top Ten and Top Twenty hits.
