CRYSTAL GAYLE-Ribbon of Darkness-induct into OPRY
 
NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Country music legend Crystal Gayle (b.Jan.9,1951) was to be inducted Saturday January 21, 2017 into the Grand Ole Opry in Nashville, nearly a half-century after she first walked onto its stage to perform as a teenager.

Gayle’s sister, country luminary Loretta Lynn, was to induct her into the country music institution at the Ryman Auditorium.

The honor comes almost 50 years after Gayle made her Grand Ole Opry debut, singing Gordon Lightfoot’s “Ribbon of Darkness” at the Ryman when she was just 16. The Ryman hosted the radio show from 1943 to 1974.

Gayle’s 1977 hit “Don’t It Make My Brown Eyes Blue” is among her most memorable.
She is referred to with her real name of Brenda at one point in the video.
