He was my Mom’s all time favorite singer’s. My Mom passed away in 89 when I was 12 and my brother was 8. When we heard that Kenny passed away my brother and I said finally Mommy can get a concert in Heaven from him. My brother and I know all his songs and reminds of our growing up. Thank you so much Jordan for this❤️❤️❤️

I worked in a record store in the 1970's in Saskatchewan Canada when "The Gambler" came out. You can't imagine how many copies we sold. Quite unbelievable really. Great video Jordan....MERRY CHRISTMAS.

What a talent he was. Was there any style if music he couldn't do? The headstone/memorial is beautiful but I was surprised it didn't have dates as well. Thank you so much for this Jordan. Blessings - Judith 🎭🎵

I am a fan enjoy watching keep it up

Always loved Kenny Rogers. The man was so talented and his voice was magic. One of my all time favorites was "Lady" among many many others Rest in peace Kenny. You are missed.

Your little man Jah full of cuteness , he's such a great traveller love seeing him in these videos 💋. Kenny Rogers, what an amazing career . I was such a fan of his music growing up , incredible really so many big artists to compete with but Kenny just had that smooth all American guy look everybody loved him. Funny you mentioned Seinfeld I just watched that Episode yesterday 🤣 😂 so glad it you added that piece in the video it's is so hillairious.

That is a beautiful cemetery. I loved Kenny Rogers, and miss him and his music very much. At Christmas time I always spend time watching the Christmas special that He and Dolly Parton made together. The are only a few people whose voice can not be copied, like Karen Carpenter, I think Kenny's is one of the! Thank you, Jordan, a great vlog, I love it!!! 🌼

I was 15 when Kenny Rogers and the The First Edition came out with a ground breaking and the most psychedelic song I've ever heard. "Just dropped in to see what condition my condition was in ". This was kind of a game changer for us young long hairs. What a contrast with his later career in country. The common thread was how great he was regardless of the genre. Thank brother I'm getting caught up on my favorite shows.

Thank you for doing this one, Jordan. Kenny was my favorite singer of all time. I've been hoping that you or one of your KZread friends would do a video at Kenny's gravesite. What a great Christmas present to his fans!

So glad you did this one!! I live in the suburbs of Atlanta and have been wanting to visit Kenny's grave! I'll also have to check out that breakfast place in Decatur!

Thank You Daze with Jordan the Lionor for showing this. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. May you all have Peace and Health.

Hi Jordan! Jah was so well behaved ❤ Thanks for showing Kenny Rodgers resting place. He is missed.

I was probably one of the few people that loved “Just dropped in to see what my condition was in” and yes loved the big Lebowski as well. Fabulous musician😿

Kenny Roger was awesome. There was nothing he didn’t do. I was shocked when he passed away. Loved Kenny and forever a fan. Thanks for visiting his gravesite.

Merry Christmas Jordan and Jah and Many Blessings to you and yours in 2022 :). Kenny Rogers was a great entertainer. I saw him perform years ago at The Houston Rodeo and it was by far my most memorable of any performer I have ever seen.

Kenny's first major worldwide hit was 'Lucille' in 1977. My dad bought his album called 'Kenny Roger' in 1977 and I've always loved it. Kenny's singing on the track 'I wasn't man enough' is simply amazing and the best he's ever performed.

Hi Jordan, well, that vlog opening has made my Christmas seeing the Jahster. I hope the little fella got what he wanted for Christmas. What a very impressive grave, Kenny had so many great hits. Robert's grave did make me smile with all those golf balls. What a beautiful Cemetery. Great vlog Jordan.

He was quite the showman, I love watching videos of him on stage. R.I.P., Kenny.

Keep up the great work Jordan, really enjoyed this piece! Happ New Year!

Your channel is so interesting... I love how you educate us on their career from highs to lows. Great work.. 👍🏽

Kenny Rogers was my first big concert. Saw him in Portland, OR in January of 1984. The Oak Ridge Boys and The Righteous Brothers were the opening acts. It was an awesome show!! I hope to get back to Atlanta within the next couple of years and will try to visit Oakland Cemetery to visit him. RIP, Kenny!!

Loved this visit to Kenny's resting place! ❤ Thank you!

I saw Kenny Rogers live at the Taylor County Coliseum in Abilene, TX in 1990, while I was attending Hardin-Simmons University and I enjoyed every minute of it, including the song, "Planet Texas"! He performed after T. Graham Brown and Eddie Rabbitt.

It is amazing how many hits Kenny Rogers was able to rack up in a long career in music. After a couple of rough starts, Rogers stuck with it until he hit it big as a solo country act. The smooth vocals and great crossover songs from country to pop make him a legend. It was said that Kenny was generally a nice guy. I remember when we were just kids, Kenny Rogers being all over radio before we got hooked into rock bands of the period like Journey, Styx, Rush, Cheap Trick, Tom Petty and more.... RIP Kenny Rogers.

@@SuperDrJeckyl Yes, First Edition were considered rock back then. Jimi Hendrix even commented on liking "What Condition My Condition is in." I only learned of it by watching a documentary on Kenny Rogers on you tube before Christmas because I find it interesting. Country music is not my wheelhouse. KR was very talented though. His music was real, done with heart.

"Ruby (Don't Take Your Love to Town)" and "(You Picked a Fine Time to Leave Me) Lucille." Monster huge hits. Another great vlog.

His voice and songs are apart of my childhood. I loved him with Dottie West and also the Seinfeld episode ( another favorite show of mine ) was hysterical. Thanks for sharing, he was amazing

That is a beautiful cemetery and you were there at right time with the leaves changing. It's nice to see Kenny's marker as I have not even seen a photo of it. He really was a great entertainer in so many ways. Music, acting and chicken.

💋Great memorial vlog on Kenny Rogers! What a handsome and talented man. Growing up in the south it was automatic that you love Kenny. Thank you Jordan! Blessings into the New Year to you and Jah. ~Love&Light♥️Carli

Great video, Jordan. I remember seeing Kenny Rogers and Ronnie Milsap in the round at George Mason University in suburban (D.C.) Virginia in '86. First time seeing a concert in the round, it was pretty cool. Love the Seinfeld episode about Kenny Rogers Roasters.

Thanks Jordan! Scott on Tape just did a vlog on Kenny's grave too. Merry Christmas!

Islands in the stream was always my fav!! wow he was a legend!! I love how they displayed his grave!! I grew up listening to him!

I love Kenny Rogers was a member of his official fan club saw him many times in concert absolutely loved him what an amazing talent. He was also an accomplished photographer. Thank you so much for sharing this video. His autobiography was well worth the read. He met Elvis Presley when he appeared at the Hilton in Las Vegas if you watch Elvis That's The Way It Is you can see him. A fan from Toronto Ontario Canada 🇨🇦

Grew up listening to Kenny Rogers. One of my favorites was Islands in the Stream. I remember he did quite a few duets in his day.I was never a country bunkin, but I made an exception for him. He always had that beautiful thick flowy hair and thick beard. Such a nice memorial for one with such a big career throughout the decades. Loved seeing Jah again!

Love this. I grew up in the 80's and loved Islands In The Stream with Dolly Parton. Thank you for sharing this.

Thank you for showing us where Kenny’s grave site was plus acouple others.. ur little jah looks so much like my little boy I use to have for 9 1/2 yrs .. he passed 4/2020 .. He was quiet like ur little guy....

Merry Christmas Jordan the lion and Jah and family much love. From San Juan Puerto Rico.

hello Jah sweet furbaby he makes the cutest travel companion 🐾🥰 beautiful tribute to Kenny Rogers - I was just a kid when I first heard of him my mom had his records particularly The Gambler, Singles Album, We Got Tonight, his work with Dottie West and Dolly Parton my favourites

Really nice grave Kenny has. I never knew he did so many genres of music. A true talent!

I used to sell granite grave markers. The cost of Kenny's monument would be MASSIVE...one of the nicest I've ever seen.

A excellent view thanks for your efforts and time .....sure do appreciate the way you tell the story! Cheers

Hard to believe Kenny Rogers is gone forever..once , a very vibrant and youthful singer/songwriter. Many big hits..

We have not made it to see Kenny's gravesite. Hopefully we will be able to go and show our respects. You mentioned Kenny being involved in other ventures than music but I didn't hear you mention about his acting. The Gambler and the sequels were a big part of Kenny's acting career. Huge fan of his music and all that Kenny did as an entertainer. Thanks for sharing!

So glad Jah is going on adventures with you. Loved your video.

Thank you Jordon! Merry Christmas to you and your family! My mom and I went to see Kenny 3 times in Pittsburgh,Pa. Hugs!

Kenny was such a gentleman. My favorite story is from 1990s. His sound man wasn't "the best", so I asked his manager if they needed someone. They told me no, the guy mixing is Kenny's best golf buddy and he tours w/Kenny so he has a golf partner. They golfed almost every day on the road. What a voice. - Thanks Jordan.

That restaurant looks fabulous - love that Jah was able to accompany you for those awesome eggs! Fascinating to see where Kenny Rogers is buried. That's quite an impressive memorial. Thanks for sharing it with us, Jordan.

I loved Kenny Rogers and listened to him while growing up! Thank you for sharing this!

I remember hearing the gambler , for the first time, driving to work when I was 17. And I thought, what a great story and a great song.

Kenny was one of my faves I was shocked when he passed

I loved Kenny Rogers. He had an amazing voice. Island in the stream was one of them I played over and over again. Thanks for the trip to his grave. I didn’t understand why he had done the cosmetic surgery but too each their own. Keep on being you! Cutie Jaw! He’s such a good boy! 🦴🐾❤️

Kenny Rodgers is my favorite singer. I love your dog, he's so cute. You're the best blogger. 👌🦮🤩🌹

This is my favorite place in the world. I always find something new, and I've been there a million times. I know where I will be this weekend.

Indeed a Great Entertainer. Like his Style as well. The GAMBLER is a Favorite I do on Karaoke. Nice vlog, Jordan.

Willie Nelson singing the Gambler?? I can't imagine anyone else but Kenny singing that. Thank you for vlogging this, and what a beautiful day to do it.

Just an old sweet song keeps Georgia on my mind, Jordan

Kenny Rogers taught me how to play guitar when I lived in McKinney Texas. He was such an awesome person.

Thank you for doing this one, Jordan! I always wondered what became of him! How he was doing, am very thrown to hear of his passing! What a fine informative story you have done here, thanks so much! ❤️Watching from New Zealand with love ❤️

Kenny was so talented. Nice video. I loved hearing him and Dolly. You eat at interesting places and make me hungry.😁 Thank you.

Jordan you did a great job on this vlog I am a big kenny rogers fan thee of my favourite songs are lady, ruby and the gambler

Another great vlog Thanks so much for sharing the Jahster with us. He looks wonderful.

Thanks for visiting Kenny Rogers grave. I found out a couple years ago thru my family tree on my mom's side which is Rogers, kenny is our cousin removed a bunch of times but he's our cousin. Never met him but in someway this way I'm giving my respects to him. I would never get to Atlanta myself. Loved his music. Merry Christmas 🎅

Another great video Jordon, thank you.

Beautiful graveyard. Kenny Rogers was a very handsome man. He has a very striking grave. That restaurant looked so good. Your breakfast looked really delicious.

Love this…Kenny Roger’s was incredible!!

Oh man I’ve been waiting for this one😍

Hello Jordan thank you for sharing this video about Kenny Rogers and Bobby Jones and it was awesome seeing Jah in this video.

Hey there - I just got my Jordan The Lion T-Shirt in the mail - 1) LOVE it 2) When do I get to learn the secret handshake? LOL!

Welcome back to ga! I went to Oakland cemetery on a couple field trips as a kid. Really cool place, I need to go visit again!

Thxs bro, awesome time! :)

Kenny Rogers was a great singer! I can remember my mom being a big fan of his and play his records when I was young. Plus, I am not sure if you remember Jordan, but back in 1980 until 1988 they had a TV show called Solid Gold that would have all types of music on the hour show. It was hosted by Dionne Warwick, Marilyn McCoo, and Andy Gibb as well. I am surprised that Ryan Seacrest has not tried to revamp the show yet because he is on the Top 40 Countdown and does the Dick Clark New Year's Eve show. Mr. Rogers was even on the show performing a lot of the music that he made to perform. I believe at Christmas time they would have a special on Solid Gold. Enjoy your vlogs and travels Jordan.

Great video Kenny Rodgers is definitely part of the soundtrack of my childhood every time I hear The Gambler or Islands in the Stream memories of being at my grandparents house come to mind and that Seinfeld episode is hilarious a classic . Happy New Year !!

Saw Kenny Rogers in concert once. A truly amazing performer.

Growing up, my parents music ranged from CCR to The Carpenters to The Beach Boys and The Beatles. In that mix was Kenny Rogers. He became one of my favorite musicians of all time and an idol of mine. The Greatest is my favorite song of his, and once I actually have a vow renewel (just celebrated our 20th on 12/21), Through The Years will be our song. Thank you Jordan and Jah for showing us his resting place. RIP Kenny Rogers. Also if Skylar and Madisyn were awake they would say hi 😁

lol doggy made me laugh at start rest in peace bobby Jones greatest amateur golfer ever and gambler..thanks for sharing.

Hi Jordan! That was great! I loved Kenny Rogers. I live in Atlanta and l saw him and Dolly here in concert. Merry Christmas and so great to see Jah. Take care❤

Thank you for doing this vlog! I have always loved Kenny Rogers . And I was broken hearted when he died . I grew up listening to his music .

Hope you enjoyed ATL. Oakland cemetery is a beautiful place. My son and I have been several times and walked around for hours each time.

Thanks Jordan, great video. Kenny Rogers was one of my favorites! Beautiful grave/lot he would be proud. 😊

Excellent vlog!! My hometown! I never been to Oakland very beautiful resting place for The Gambler. Six Pack!

I clicked in this so fast. I LOVE Kenny. And that breakfast looked KILLER

I'm surprised Kenny got buried at Oakland cemetery. I know he made Georgia his home but its becoming difficult to get a spot at Oakland. Only if you're from an old Georgia family or a prominent Georgia politician do you get a spot at Oakland now because space is limited. Kenny is Texas. New Georgia stock usually get buried at Westview cemetery which is considered the "new Oakland". Those of us that's Georgia rooted for many generations know what I'm talking about and I find it interesting Kenny got approved. May he rest in peace. He's a legend.

Merry Christmas Jordan and Jah! Kenny Rogers is one of my favorite musicians.

Great vlog as always.

Merry Day After Christmas 🎄 Great Vlog ❤️😊
