The First Edition The First Edition's Second

The First Edition is the debut album by the group The First Edition. Kenny Rogers only sang the lead vocals on one track "Just Dropped In (To See What Condition My Condition Was In)", which became the only hit single from the album and marked the start of things to come, with Rogers soon becoming the lead singer of the group and being renamed "Kenny Rogers & The First Edition".

The producer of this album (and also the band's second and third albums), Mike Post gained later renown for the theme music for many TV dramas such as Hill Street Blues, Magnum P.I., Law & Order and others.

Though this album is no longer in print, most of the tracks can be found on various compilation releases.
