KANSAS Debut At #5 On Billboard Charts With New DVD
October 22, 2009, 15 years ago
KANSAS delivers unforgettable live performances. Evidenced nowhere better than on their current DVD release, There’s Know Place Like Home debuts at #5 on the Billboard DVD top sales chart. Featuring guest appearances by former members Kerry Livgren and Steve Morse (DEEP PURPLE), spectacular lighting, and songs previously not recorded with a symphony, this unique concert has been captured in High Definition video and Surround Sound audio.
Released October 13th, TKPLH has already become the highest-charting Kansas DVD of all-time and the #1 selling DVD for RED distribution this week.
The immediate success of There’s Know Place Like Home, should come as no surprise, as uniting Kansas with the orchestra is a natural and richly fulfilling experience.
The result is a must-own DVD of a performance filmed/recorded earlier this year at the Washburn University's White Concert Hall in their original hometown of Topeka, KS and released on co-producers Jeff Glixman and Jim Gentile’s StarCity label.
Says Glixman: “I have seen many, many KANSAS shows and this one was right at the very top. The DVD contains arguably the definitive versions of ‘Icarus II’, ‘Hold On’, ‘Nobody’s Home’ and more, as well as Kerry Livgren and Steve Morse appearing together for the first time”.
Add to the mix simply magnificent renditions of such Kansas classics as 'Carry On Wayward Son' and 'Dust In The Wind', and you have a can’t-miss recipe that has resulted in what is unquestionably one of the finest in-concert rock DVD’s of 2009.
