Rogers has sold 120 million records and
recorded 65 albums. His 24 #1 hits include:
“The Gambler,” “Lady,” “Lucille,” “She
Believes in Me,” “Islands in the Stream,” and
“We’ve Got Tonight.” He has 1 Diamond, 19
Platinum, and 31 Gold albums. He has received
3 Grammys, 11 People’s Choice Awards,
18 American Music Awards, 8 Academy of
Country Music awards and 5 Country Music Association awards.
With sales in excess of 20 million,
their arena-rock pop smashes,
“Hold On Loosely,” “Rockin’ Into
the Night,” “Caught Up in You,”
“Fantasy Girl,” “If I’d Been the
One,” “Back Where You Belong,”
“Chain Lightnin’,” and “Second
Chance,” are immediately recognizable from the first opening
chord. 38 Special’s timeless hits remain a staple at radio.
Celebrating their 40th anniversary,
Kansas has produced 8 gold, 3
sextuple-Platinum, 1 platinum live
album, and a million-selling gold
single, “Dust in the Wind.” Kansas
appeared on the Billboard charts
for over 200 weeks in the ‘70’s and ‘80’s and has played to sold-out
arenas and stadiums worldwide. “Carry On Wayward Son” was the
#2 most played track on classic rock radio in 1995 and #1 in 1997.
Tritt’s debut Country Club and its succession
of hits put Travis in the vanguard of the
genre’s early ’90s boom. The next eight albums
and scores of hit singles led him to amass
more than 25 million in career album sales, 2
Grammys and 2 CMA Awards. He scored 5
#1 hits —”Help Me Hold On,” “Anymore,”
“Can I Trust You with My Heart,” “Foolish Pride,” and
“Best of Intentions” — and 15 additional top ten singles.

CHRISTOPHER CROSS
AIR SUPPLY
In 1981, Cross scored an unprecedented,
record-setting 5 Grammys, including Best
New Artist and Song of the Year. His debut
album featuring “Ride Like the Wind”
and the #1 single “ Sailing” made Cross a
superstar. In the wake of two more Top 20
hits, “Never Be the Same” and “Say You’ll Be Mine” he soon
scored a second #1, and an Academy Award, with “Arthur’s
Theme (Best That You Can Do).”
In 1980, “Lost in Love” was the fastest
selling single in the world. Their second
single “All Out of Love,” went up the
charts even quicker. The albums Lost in
Love, The One That You Love, Now &
Forever, and The Greatest Hits sold over
20 million copies. ”Lost in Love,” “All Out of Love,” “The One
That You Love,” “Sweet Dreams,” and “Making Love Out Of
Nothing At All” have each achieved multi-million radio plays.
