On October 25, 2017, Dolly Parton and Kenny Rogers stood together at Nashville’s Bridgestone Arena, knowing they were sharing a stage for the final time. The farewell concert, titled All in for the Gambler, brought dozens of artists together to honor Rogers before his retirement. Their creative partnership had begun in 1983, when their collaborative recording written by the Bee Gees became an international pop and country number-one hit. For nearly four decades, the pair toured together, shared television specials, and maintained a close family bond off the road. During that 2017 Nashville finale, Parton stayed close to Rogers as his health slowed his movement, matching his steps and trading familiar stage jokes. At the close of their final duet, the two playfully dropped their microphones to the stage floor and walked off arm in arm. On March 20, 2020, Rogers passed away from natural causes at his home in Sandy Springs, Georgia, at age eighty-one. With public gatherings halted across the country, Parton sat at her piano at home, recording a simple video to speak about the thirty-seven years of friendship they had shared. Parton and Rogers built a rare partnership that never let public curiosity distract from real friendship. The backstage stories from their 1980s world tours and the way Rogers shaped their first studio session remain central to the history they made together.

At his legendary Las Vegas comeback press conference, Elvis turned to New Orleans native Fats Domino, sitting right there in the room, and told everyone he was looking at the real king of rock and roll. Domino had built that sound years earlier in a small Ninth Ward studio, long before the genre had a name. Elvis never forgot where it came from. What does it mean to you that rock and roll’s true king came from right here in New Orleans?
