Keith Whitley Artist Snapshot:

In a short five-year span in the 1980s, Keith Whitley ran a number of songs up the country charts and more than held his own among fellow New Traditionalists such as Randy Travis and George Strait. In the early '70s, as a 15-year-old bluegrass singer, he (and Ricky Skaggs) joined Ralph Stanley's Clinch Mountain Boys and later had a critically acclaimed stint fronting J.D. Crowe and the New South. His break-out came in the mid '80s with a solo contract for RCA and by 1988 he topped the charts with "Don't Close Your Eyes," the first of a handful of number ones. A lifelong battle with severe alcoholism ended with a fatal relapse in 1989.

Title Note

Keith Whitley's third solo album, DON"T CLOSE YOUR EYES, finds the bluegrass ace-turned-contemporary country singer further refining his new traditionalist sound. Featuring three country chart-topping singles, this is the record that established the Kentucky native as a commercial force with which to be reckoned. Sonically similar to his previous album, L.A. TO MIAMI, the disc is slightly rougher around the edges production-wise. As always, Whitley's gorgeous beers `n' tears voice is at the forefront, making weepers like "Would These Arms Be In Your Way" and the Lefty Frizzell classic "I Never Go Around Mirrors" particularly heart-wrenching.
