Career

In the late 1950s, Rogers began performing with Bobby Doyle and his band on a regular basis. In 1957, he released his first single, “That Crazy Feeling”, on the Carlton Records label. In the early 1960s, Rogers formed The Bobby Doyle Three with Doyle and Jerry Allison, a drummer who had previously played with Buddy Holly. The group released two singles on the Columbia Records label before disbanding in 1965.

In 1966, Rogers formed the group First Edition with Mickey Jones and Terry Williams. The band’s first album, a self-titled release, was released in 1967 on the Reprise Records label. The group disbanded in 1976, with Rogers launching his solo career.

He went on to release a string of successful albums and singles over the next decade, including the album “The Gambler” in 1978. The album’s title track became one of Rogers’ signature songs.

In 1980, Rogers scored his first number-one hit with “Lady”. The song was co-written by Lionel Richie and released on the Liberty label.
