Kenny will be missed.
My favorite was a song Kenny did, that he didn't even like! Islands in The Stream. Well, OK, he liked it only if Dolly helped him sing it!
Barry Gibb wrote the song thinking he could get Marvin Gaye to sing it, but that didn't work out for some reason or another.
So while in Nashville, he pitched it to Kenny, and after a few solo tries, Kenny said, "I don't even like this song." But, Dolly had just left the same studio, and Kenny told Barry, "Go get Dolly, I need her help"! He did!
After the first try with Dolly, Kenny told Barry, "I like this song now"! LOL!
Turned out to be C & W's best selling hit ever!
