POP/ROCK - June 3, 1991

Gatlin Brothers Say Adios: The Gatlin Brothers, citing health problems and rising business costs, will break up when their current tour ends next year. Larry Gatlin and his brothers, Steve and Rudy, said they haven’t had a major hit record in four years and face a music scene dominated by newcomers like Clint Black and Garth Brooks. Larry Gatlin will take a four-month break from performing this summer to undergo surgery to remove cysts from his vocal cords. When he recovers, the group’s “Adios, for Now” tour will continue until late next year.
