Don Henley took Kenny Rogers' words of wisdom -- and early support -- to heart.
Before Henley was singing and drumming in the, he was in a band called Shiloh. Rogers not only signed the act shortly after meeting them in 1969, but produced its first album and brought them to Los Angeles, where Henley met Glenn Frey and his future bandmates.
'"In addition to his tremendous talent, Kenny was a generous and caring man, a wise mentor to so many of us. He loved his friends, his family, his fellow musicians and his fans, and they loved him, right back. Fifty years ago, The Gambler took a gamble on me and my first band from small-town Texas, and his big-hearted support launched many careers, including mine.
