From an interesting interview with Garth Brooks, country star:
Garth spent years trying to break into the industry and was turned away from numerous labels before a stroke of luck helped him catch the attention of Capitol Records' executive Lynn Shults.
He previously told Billboard that Lynn had come to a cafe in Nashville to meet someone who 'never showed up,' when he noticed Garth performing on stage.
'When my performance was over, Lynn was waiting offstage. What he said … would change my life forever,' recalled the singer.
'He said, "Maybe we missed something here. Come to the label tomorrow. Let's talk."
His debut album dropped in 1989, and immediately transformed him into a massive star.
He's since released a whopping 16 more albums - nine of which have been certified diamond.
