New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Vince Gill's 1989 release When I Call Your Name rocketed his career to a new level and introduced him to many new fans who found his easygoing charisma was just as appealing as his prodigious vocal and instrumental skills. His third full-length solo album, and first for MCA Records, established the Oklahoma-bred singer-songwriter-guitarist as one of country's most beloved and respected performers, garnering him his first Gold record on the strength of four hit singles: the album's title track, which reached Number 2 on Billboard's country singles chart, the Number 3 country hit "Never Knew Lonely," "
Never Alone" (which Gill co-wrote with Rosanne Cash) and "Oklahoma Swing" (a duet with Reba McEntire). The album, which has since been certified double platinum, earned Gill two Country
Music Association Awards, including Single Of The Year, and won him his first GRAMMY Award for "Best Country Vocal Performance, Male."
On November 15, MCA Nashville/UMe will commemorate the 30th anniversary of When I Call Your Name, just one day after its original release thirty years ago, with a sparkling new vinyl edition of this influential collection. In addition to a standard black vinyl version, the album will also be available in a distinctive limited-edition pressing on metallic gold vinyl, which will be available exclusively online from uDiscover and the UMGN Store.
