America first rode to fame in 1972 with the Billboardr #1 pop smash 'A Horse with No Name.' That same year, they won the GRAMMYr Award for Best New Artist, and also enjoyed success with 'I Need You,' another hit single from their self-titled debut album. Gerry Beckley, Dewey Bunnell-who continue to record and tour with America and Dan Peek (who left the band in '77) built an enduring legacy for the group as soft-rock standard bearers, and their mellow blend of rock, pop, and folk remains one of it's essential sounds. Among their other beautifully crafted, melodic hits included in this all-new collection are the timeless favorites 'Ventura Highway,' 'Lonely People,' and 'Tin Man.'
