“Kenny
Rogers was one of the greatest, I’ve been thinking about him all day
since I heard the sad news. When we went into Hall of Fame together,
truth is, I thought he was already in! To be inducted alongside him made
it that much more of an honor. ‘The Gamber’ is a great story song, so
well written, and Kenny had an ear for really great songs. He had a
magic voice, instantly recognizable. I will miss my friend.” – Bobby Bare, Country Music Hall of Fame and Grand Ole Opry member
