Nothin' For A Broken Heart - (featuring Rodney Crowell)
I have very mixed feelings, more negative than positive, about mainstream country music. At its worst (which is a LOT of the time) it sounds like music for morons.

I was first exposed to Vince Gill as I was chann...

Vince Gill has always been a beautiful vocalist and a hot-shot picker, but in the wake of his father's passing he stepped up his songwriting to a level he'd never achieved before. This one will bring you to tears.
I've been spending a lot of time working through Vince Gill's 4 CD set, "These Days", released about a month back. I've admittedly not listened to a lot of him in the past; mainly because I'm not really much of a Country fan - I don't actively dislike Country music - I just have more of a "take it or leave it" relationship with it. But there is no getting around the fact that Mr. Gill is a fa...
Last week Vince Gill, Emmylou Harris, Dwight Yoakam, Melissa Etheridge, and Chris Isaaks all took part in a very intimate and exclusive All For The Hall benefit concert in L.A. and I was lucky enough to be offered a ticket to send one of my awesome Gab correspondents. From the review and pictures Victoria sent, I'd say it was a great show and a memorable event for all involved. This is a very.

On this day back in 1992, Vince Gill's I Still Believe In You moved up to number one on the Billboard Hot Country charts. This was Vince's first number one single on the country charts. Amazingly, Vince has only had five number one hits. I had to do a double-take when I saw that number. It seems like he should have so many more. No matter, he's still one of the greatest country music singers
