Garth Brooks is a living legend. Throughout his career, Brooks sold nearly as many records as Elvis Presley and the Beatles. The singer/songwriter recently teased the idea that he is coming out of retirement, when he announced a live TV special concert that will be broadcast on CBS. Now Brooks has confirmed that he will be releasing a new eight-disc box set album, with four of the discs being covers. The collection, titled Blame It All on My Roots, will be released later this month.
Garth Brooks is releasing a brand new box set collection just in time for the holidays. The eight disc set will be available at Walmart starting on Thanksgiving Day and selling through December 1, for a price point of $24.96.
Garth Brooks' final show will be at Encore Theater in The Wynn of Las Vegas. The show will also be broadcast live on CBS, on Friday, November 29, from 9:00 -11:00 p.m. The official release reads in part:
"'GARTH BROOKS, LIVE FROM LAS VEGAS' will feature Brooks in a very intimate setting, playing his guitar as he takes the audience through the musical journey that led him to become the number one selling solo artist in U.S. history. He will share his experiences listening to different musicians throughout his life, starting with the music of Merle Haggard and George Jones. Then, other musicians who influenced him like Simon & Garfunkel, James Taylor, Otis Redding, Bob Seger, George Strait and many, many, more. Throughout the show, Garth will perform some of their classic songs and show you how they influenced his greatest hits."
Brooks also spoke about his musical selection, saying:
"'Blame it all on my roots,'This is the soundtrack of my life. Growing up the last of six kids, music was the life blood of our family and as you can imagine, mom, dad, and each kid had his or her own favorite stuff and it all funneled down to me."
