In 1979 America (Dewey Bunnell and Gerry Beckley) were at the height of their popularity and had just released "Silent Letter" their first album as a duo following the departure of fellow founding member Dan Peek. Acclaimed Australian filmmaker Peter Clifton captured the band at their concert in New York's Central Park and then followed them across to California where he filmed them in the studio and on location. All of this footage was combined to make America "Live In Central Park".
Paying tribute to one of their most popular hits, "Ventura Highway," 1970s soft rock icons America take the stage in a memorable concert recorded live at the Ventura Theater in Ventura, Calif. Pleasing the crowd with such classic tunes as "A Horse with No Name" and "I Need You," the trio is also joined by guests Andrew Gold and Stephen Bishop for eight numbers on the 14-song set list. Extras include behind-the-scenes footage and interviews.
Recorded on June 16, 1999 at the TV Studio "Ohne Filter", in Baden-Baden, Germany
