Tony Arata had written “The Dance” before Brooks recorded it. Brooks heard Arata perform it at Nashville’s Bluebird Cafe and connected with it. When Brooks’ self-titled debut album came out in 1989, “The Dance” was the closing track. It wasn’t initially the song introducing him to the world; it became a single in 1990 and eventually hit No. 1. In hindsight, you’re hearing a future superstar right at the beginning. #80s #music #nashville #country #genx
