Crystal Gayle is an American country and pop singer, born Brenda Gail Webb in 1951. Famed for her curtain of long brown hair and that song about turning brown eyes blue, she enjoyed significant success in the 70s and 80s. She is the younger sister of Loretta Lynn and for the large part of her early career she hung to her famous sister's coat-tails, suffering from the inevitable comparisons. It took the crossover ballad "Don't It Make My Brown Eyes Blue" to bring her to the spotlight and the album from which it was drawn, We Must Believe in Magic achieved platinum sales. R1
