Before Urban Cowboys, recording career in the 1970s began in the 1970s.

Gilley produced "Room Full of Roses," a one-time hit for George Morgan and written by Tim Spencer of the Sons of the Pioneers, which was originally meant to be recorded for amusement. The album was released by Astro Records that year, and Playboy Records followed the single and gained national exposure for "Room Full of Roses." Gilley's uncle Eddie Kilroy was a long-time collaborator who worked with his long-time pal Eddie Kilroy from then on. "Room Full of Roses" became the song that put Gilley on national television, debuting at the top of the Country charts this year and boosting it to No. 2. On the pop music chart, it's at number 50.

He had a string of top-tens and No. 1s. Throughout the 1970s, there were 1s around the world. Several of these hits were cover versions of songs, including Bill Anderson's "City Lights," George Jones' "The Window Up Above," and Sam Cooke's "Bring It On Home to Me." For the remainder of the 1970s, he was a common country act. "Chains of Love" (1977), "Honky Tonk Memories" (1977), "She's Pulling Me Back" (1978), and "Here Comes the Hurt Again" (1978). These songs were a mash-up of honky-tonk and countrypolitan that brought Gilley's Gilley to the top of the charts in the 1970s.

However, a new breed of singer was making its way into country music. These were country-crossover artists who boosted the country's success with them on the pop charts. Glen Campbell, Crystal Gayle, Anne Murray, Anne Murray, Olivia Newton-John, Barbara Mandrell, and Kenny Rogers are among these artists. Gilley had to sound like them and have the same success as these artists as a country-pop sensation.

In 1978, Gilley signed with Epic Records, when Epic purchased Playboy Records. His fame was fading marginally by 1979. "The Power of Positive Drinkin'", "Just Long Enough to Say Goodbye," and "My Silver Lining" made the Top ten.

Gilley began by 1980 with a new style to bring him the country crossover success that so many other country singers (including Eddie Rabbitt, Juice Newton, Kenny Rogers, and Dolly Parton) were experiencing at the time (including Eddie Rabbitt, Juice Newton, Kenny Rogers). When one of his videos was included in the box-office-selling film Urban Cowboy, his career was given a second chance to flourish. The song was the country's remake of the soul classic "Stand by Me." "Stand by Me" became a hit on television as the film was on the rise. In 1980, the song debuted on the top of the country charts, landed at number 5 of the Adult Contemporary charts, and in addition, it debuted in the Pop Top 40.

"Room Full of Roses," "Professional Love Ways," and "You Don't Know Me" all made the Billboard Hot 100; in addition, "Bring It On Home To Me," "That's What Matters"), and "Talk to Me" floated under (at 102, 106, respectively). Following Urban Cowboy's success, a series of six number-ones on the country chart followed. No. 2 in Gilley's other world No. "Reality Love Ways," "A Headache Tomorrow (Or a Heartache Tonight), "You Don't Know Me," and "Lonely Nights" are among the 1st "Reality Ways" on the DVD. He's never had any other pop hits. In 1983, he had other country hits, including "Fool For Your Love," "Paradise Tonight," a duet with Charly McClain; and "Talk to Me" (not to be confused with the Stevie Nicks hit of the same name). These songs from 1983 were No. 1. Gilley has been hit by one country. In 1984, he had a hit single called "You've Really Got a Hold on Me," which just missed out on the country charts. Charly McClain, "Candy Man," and "Too Good To Stop Now" were two hits that were both a hit and a solo hit, both of which made the Top Five this year.

With "I'm the One Mama Warned You Concern" and "You've Got Something on Your Mind," Top Tension with "Your Memory Ain't What It Used To Be" and "You've Got Something on Your Mind" in 1985, we're in the top tens. Gilley's last Top ten hits on the country charts, as a new breed of George Strait-inspired Country singers named the "Traditionalists" were cruising into Nashville, such as Clint Black, Patty Loveless, Reba McEntire, and Randy Travis. Gilley's fame was not fading, but the club in Pasadena, Texas, was not the only one struggling with his finances.

Gilley joined Airborne Records and released Chasin' Rainbows, which resulted in his last top 40 country hit in "She Remind Me of You," which debuted in No. 89. This year, there have been 23.

Gilley had 17 No. 17 in a career that spanned 15 years of charting success. 1 country is hardest impacted.
