I have always been a Keith Whitley fan and will be forever! I remember crying when he died in 1989!!! He had a voice that went straight to my heart!!

I heard him on a radio interview just a few days before he died. He sang with heart like all the other greats. I will listen to him; & his son Jesse too, till I leave here

It was these performances on Nashville Now that made me a Keith Whitley fan.He was my favorite male singer from then on. Watching him here singing "When you say nothing at all " I am covered in chills. Happy to find these videos still, after nearly 28 yrs since his passing....Thank you so much Stone Country.

I've met his lead guitarist, Randy Hayes, and the lead vocalist in the tribute band, Chris Caskey, a talent in his own right, (look up God's Pocket on here) is a personal friend. Find out when they play and go see the tribute band. Worth the time and travel. They're on here, too.

Stone Country I’m a new KZbin content creator. I was wondering if you might be able to help me with some questions I have about Copyright laws regarding Uploading KZbin videos? I am bent on getting Keith Whitley into the CMHOF. I’d like to be able to put his videos on my Channel, but I don’t want to get strikes by KZbin. I’m not sure how to go about finding Keith’s videos that I won’t have a problem with? I’d greatly appreciate it if you can steer me in the right direction. Please, and thank you very much!🤗🤗

Tempo problems when he sang "You say it best when you say nothing at all"....i think he was just starting out and so tempo is a hard thing. just a little uneven...he probably didn't have a good monitor.

It really does seem like RCA wants to keep Keith's recordings all to themselves. Finding one of Keith's vinyls or CD's is damn near impossible nowadays.
