If you just dropped in to see what condition Kenny Rogers’ condition is in (as his old song goes), the answer is good — particularly if you look back at the man’s professional career. Rogers has sold more than 125 million albums, won nearly 40 industry awards and ranked in the top ten of R.I.A.A.’s Top Selling Male Artists of all time. An actor, author and accomplished photographer besides, the 1960s pop singer-turned-country legend charted a hit single in each of the last six decades, and “Islands in the Stream,” the duet he recorded with Dolly Parton, is the No. 1-selling duet of all time.
>> Kenny Rogers will perform at 7:30 p.m. Thursday at Comerica Theatre, 400 W. Washington St., Phoenix. $47.20-$89.75. (602) 379-2800 or livenation.com.
