One of his most popular, it has established Rogers' status as one of the most successful artists of the 1970s and 1980s. The album reached 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 has sold over 5 million copies.

  • El hombre tras la canción “The Gambler” fue Don Schlitz, un operador de unos veinte años escritor de canciones de Nuevo Hampshire. Schlitz grabó y sacó la primera versión de la canción en 1978. Tuvo un éxito moderado, pero el productor de música Larry Butler creyó que podía llegar más allá. Cuando Butler escuchó la canción, estaba produciendo álbumes para Johnny Cash y Kenny Rogers y animó a ambos a grabar la canción. Lo que muchos fanes de la canción no saben es que Johnny Cash grabó y sacó su propia versión de “The Gambler”. Solo se supo un mes después de que Rogers sacara su propia canción, pero en ese mes la versión de Rogers ya había llegado a las listas. Parecía que la persona de Rogers personificaba mejor el mensaje de la canción, hasta el punto que se llegó a llamar al propio Rogers “The Gambler”.​ “You got to know when to hold 'em, know when to fold 'em,Know when to walk away and know when to run.You never count your money when you're sittin' at the table.There'll be time enough for countin' when the dealin's done.” (Tiene que saber cuándo quedarse con las cartas, saber cuándo tirarlas,Saber cuándo irse y cuando correr.Nunca cuenta el dinero cuando está sentado en la mesa.Habrá tiempo suficiente para contarlo cuando se haya repartido las cartas) (es)

  • The Gambler is the sixth studio album by Kenny Rogers, released by United Artists in November 1978. One of his most popular, it has established Rogers' status as one of the most successful artists of the 1970s and 1980s. The album reached 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 has sold over 5 million copies. The title track "The Gambler" was written by Don Schlitz, who was the first to record it. It was also covered by several other artists, but 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. Although Johnny Cash recorded the song first, Rogers's version was released first. 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 1980s 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 when the song was adopted by the England Rugby Team at the Rugby World Cup 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. (en)
