Pilgrim/Rain Rainbow

Pilgrim/Rain Rainbow

Digitally remastered two-fer containing a pair of albums from the Country performer originally released in 1973 and 1974. Larry Gatlin found success as a solo artist as well as with the Gatlin Brothers, becoming one of the most popular recording artists of the 1970s and 1980s. It was whilst singing with the Imperials, a Gospel group in Las Vegas that he became friends with Country singer Dottie West who was also appearing on the same bill. Impressed by his song-writing skills, Dottie recorded two of his songs straight away and paid for his air fare to Nashville where he was employed as a staff writer for her new publishing company. Dottie pitched his songs to Kris Kristofferson who then sent them on to Fred Foster, owner of Monument Records, who immediately signed him to the label. The Pilgrim contained two Country chart singles 'Sweet Becky Walker' and 'Bitter They Are, Harder They Fall', the latter recorded by Elvis in 1976. Elvis also recorded 'Help Me' in 1974. Rain Rainbow contains the Country and Pop chart single 'Delta Dirt'.
