Keith Whitley

He is perhaps more cherished by the current generation of country stars than he was when he died in 1989.

Keith Whitley and Jerry Lee Lewis and music executive Joe Galante will become the 147-149th esteemed members of the Country Music Hall of Fame.

His death was tragic, but his legacy lives on.

Jordan Matthew Young got Blake and Kelly to turn, no surprise...but he also attracted the attention of Nick!

Kenzie Wheeler's country style managed to achieve a four-chair turn...which team did he end up on?

His musical legacy carried on even after his death.

Country traditionalist Dillon Carmichael approaches any Keith Whitley song with respect and reverence.

He left such an incredible legacy.

The younger Whitley is readying new music that is truly him.

They were asked for a song that meant something to them and dang, did they deliver.
