    Kenny Rogers, whose legendary music career spanned six decades, has died at the age of 81, his publicist Keith Hagan told CNN.

    The artist's family announced his passing on Rogers' verified Twitter account, saying he died Friday night from natural causes.

    Rogers was inducted to the Country Music Hall of Fame in 2013, for what organization officials called a "distinctive, husky voice."
    He had 24 No. 1 hits and through his career more than 50 million albums sold in the US alone.
    He was a six-time Country Music Awards winner and three-time Grammy Award winner.

    So ok ..... I'll show my age a bit !
    I never really got into kenny with the 'know when to hold out' , stuff was out' .

    But , ehhhmm , waaaay back before that tune , I dug the hell out'a 'Somethin's Burnin' ; By the 1st Edition !!
    I think I was around 11 or 12 years old , " Heard it on that TV show called the 'Hoola-baloo' !!

    God bless ya Kenny , you were a great musician and will be sorely missed !

    I grew up with Kenny Rogers and the First Edition playing on the top 40 AM radio.
    Loved songs like Ruby Don't Take Your Love To Town, Somethin's Burnin', Reuben James.
    When Kenny went solo and ultra-commercial I dropped him.
    The early stuff was more soulful to me. :)
