Kenny Rogers's career hit its monumental peak between 1977 and 1987, during which time his combination of soft pop production and country/western themes dominated the country and pop charts. In the preceding years, Rogers performed as a member of the New Christy Minstrels, then experimented with country-tinged rock with the First Edition (scoring a hit with the druggy "Just Dropped In [To See What Condition My Condition Was In]"). During his heyday, he scored an incomprehensible number of classic hits including "Lady," "Coward of the County," and his signature, "The Gambler." In later years, Rogers has branched out into such multifarious enterprises as acting, entertainment managing, chicken franchises, and livestock breeding.
