NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Country-music veteran Kenny Rogers is marking 50 years in the music business with a star-studded TV special.
“The whole idea is to get together with some friends of mine,” said Rogers, 71, in a phone interview. “I really don’t want it to be a tribute. That’s not what my deal is. It’s kind of a celebration.”
Friends including Dolly Parton, Alison Krauss, Lionel Richie and Wynonna Judd are already signed on to take part in “Kenny Rogers: The First 50 Years,” which will tape on April 10 at the MGM Grand At Foxwoods in Connecticut. The Associated Press
