keith whitley
during the new recording sessions in 1987, whitley started feeling that the songs he was doing were not up to his standards, so he approached rca and asked if the project of 15 songs could be shelved. he asked if he could assert himself more with the songs and production. the new album, titled "don't close your eyes", was released in 1988, and the album sold extremely well. the album contained one of the many songs that whitley had a hand in writing in his years at tree publishing, "it's all coming back to me now". also on the album was a remake of lefty frizzell's classic standard "i never go around mirrors," and the song became a huge hit at whitley's concerts. the first three singles from the album—"when you say nothing at all," "i'm no stranger to the rain," and the title cut—all reached number one on billboard magazine's country charts during the fall of 1988 and the winter of 1989, with the title track "don't close your eyes" being ranked as billboard's no. 1 country song of 1988. shortly thereafter, "i'm no stranger to the rain" also earned whitley his first and only country music association award as a solo artist and a grammy nomination for best country vocal performance, male.
