Kenny Rogers and the First Edition, until 1970 billed as The First Edition, were an American rock band that fused rock and roll, R&B, folk, and country. Its stalwart members were Kenny Rogers (lead vocals and bass guitar), Mickey Jones (drums and percussion) and Terry Williams (guitar and vocals). The band formed in 1967, with folk musician Mike Settle (guitar and backing vocals) and the operatically-trained Thelma Camacho (lead vocals) completing the lineup.
