Classics is the name of a duet album by Kenny Rogers and Dottie West, released in 1979.

This album was Kenny Rogers' and Dottie West's second album together. Their previous album, Every Time Two Fools Collide, was a major seller, and made them one of the biggest duet acts Country music has ever seen. This album was no different. The album sold very well, and peaked at #3 on the Top Country Albums chart in 1979, and #82 on the Billboard 200. This album featured cover versions of classic hits by other artists, including two Country hit singles, one went to #1 called "All I Ever Need Is You" (a big hit for Sonny & Cher), and another went to #3 called "'Til I Can Make It on My Own" (a hit for Tammy Wynette).

Famous quotes containing the words classics, rogers and/or west:

    How to attain sufficient clarity of thought to meet the terrifying issues now facing us, before it is too late, is ... important. Of one thing I feel reasonably sure: we can’t stop to discuss whether the table has or hasn’t legs when the house is burning down over our heads. Nor do the classics per se seem to furnish the kind of education which fits people to cope with a fast-changing civilization.
    Mary Barnett Gilson (1877–?)

    Call them rules or call them limits, good ones, I believe, have this in common: They serve reasonable purposes; they are practical and within a child’s capability; they are consistent; and they are an expression of loving concern.
    —Fred Rogers (20th century)
