The Gambler is Kenny Rogers’ sixth studio album, one of his most popular, released in 1978, proving Rogers’ status as one of the most successful artists of the 1970’s and ’80s, reaching many markets around the world, such as the far east and Jamaica, with Rogers later commenting ˝when I go to Korea or Hong Kong people say ah, the gambler!˝ (as per the sleeve notes to the 1998 released box set ˝Through the years˝ on Capitol Records).
The album; released by United Artists in 1978, has since sold over 35 million copies.
The title track, ˝The Gambler˝, was written by Don Schlitz, who originally recorded it.
It was also covered by several other artists, Johnny Cash among them, but neither of these versions were major hits.
It was Kenny Rogers’ adaptation of the tale that went on to top the country charts and win a Song of the Year Grammy, later becoming Rogers’ signature song. Both this song and ˝She Believes in Me˝ became pop music hits, helping Rogers become well known beyond country music circles.
Although largely compiled from songs by some of the music business’s top songwriters, such as Alex Harvey, Mickey Newbury and Steve Gibb, Rogers continued to show his own talent for songwriting with ˝Morgana Jones˝.
The album was produced by Larry Butler.
Its popularity has led to many releases over the years.
After United Artists was absorbed into EMI/Capitol in 1980, ˝The Gambler˝ was reissued on vinyl and cassette on the Liberty Records label.
Several years later, Liberty issued an abridged version of the album, removing the track ˝Morgana Jones˝.
EMI Manhattan Records released ˝The Gambler˝ on CD in the 1980s.
An ’Original Master Recording’ from Mobile Fidelity Sound Labs was released on vinyl (audiophile edition vinyl). Finally, ˝The Gambler˝ was released on Rogers’ own Dreamcatcher Records in 2001 as part of the Kenny Rogers ˝Original Masters Series.˝
In Britain both the title cut and the album did very well in the country market, but both failed to reach the top 40 of the pop charts.
In the 1980’s the single of ˝The Gambler˝ was re-issued and made the top 100 sales list, but again charted outside the top 40.
It wasn’t until the song was re-issued in 2007 that it charted at its #22 peak.
Additionally, ˝I Wish That I Could Hurt That Way Again˝ was later a single in 1986 for T. Graham Brown, whose version went to #3 on the country charts.
This album has sold 35 million copies world-wide.
