“This man saved
country
music, and I
gotta tell you
I
wouldn’t be standing
here
if it wasn’t for
Randy Travis.”
Much of the success of modern country music can be traced to one man, Randy Travis. His arrival signaled the start of the “new country” sales explosion of the mid-1980s. Randy Travis was the first country artist to go Platinum with his disc debut, and the first debut country artist to go Multi-Platinum.
