Terri Gibbs – Somebody’s Knockin’ (1981):  Terri Gibbs had a major crossover hit with her debut 1981 single, “Somebody’s Knockin’ ” which reached #13 on the Billboard Hot 100 and #3 on the Adult Contemporary charts.  Although not overtly Christian, her gospel roots show through clearly on this number – in the guise of a woman being tempted for “one heavenly night” with “the devil . . . in blue eyes and blue jeans”, she quips:  “My fever’s burning, so he ought to be right at home”.  Born blind, Terri Gibbs began playing the piano when she was only three.  After hearing her sing, Nashville guitarist legend Chet Atkins asked her for a demo tape; it eventually made its way to a producer and songwriter named Ed Penney.  “Somebody’s Knockin’ ” earned a Grammy nomination for Best Country Song.  On her accompanying debut album, Somebody’s Knockin’, every song is rendered well in her understated but expressive voice.  Her follow-up single “Rich Man” made the Country Top 20, as did two later singles.  Terri Gibbs’ 1987 album, Turn Around was also nominated for a Grammy and generated three hit singles on the Christian contemporary music charts.
