dbo:abstract
  • Homecoming ist das zweite Album der Band America und wurde 1972 veröffentlicht. Mit Hilfe von Gastmusikern wie Hal Blaine am Schlagzeug und Joe Osborn am E-Bass versuchte man, den Gesamtstil rock-orientierter zu gestalten. Das Stück Ventura Highway, auf dessen bekanntem Riff auch Janet Jacksons Hit Someone to Call My Lover beruht, wurde zu einem der größten Erfolge der Band, die nach den mäßig erfolgreichen Singleauskopplungen Don’t Cross the River und Only in Your Heart 1972 mit dem Grammy als Best New Artist ausgezeichnet wurde. Das Album erreichte Platz 9 der Billboard-Charts. (de)
  • Homecoming is the second studio album by America, released on November 15, 1972 through Warner Bros. Records. Acoustic guitar-based, with a more pronounced electric guitar and keyboard section than their first album, their second effort helped continue the band's success, and includes one of their best known hits, "Ventura Highway." Homecoming peaked at number 9 on Billboard's Pop Albums Chart and was certified platinum by the RIAA. It produced three hit singles: "Ventura Highway", which peaked at number 8 on the Billboard singles chart and number 3 on the adult contemporary chart; "Don't Cross the River", which hit number 35 on Billboard and 23 on the AC chart; and "Only in Your Heart" peaked at number 62 on Billboard's Pop singles chart. Several other songs received radio airplay on FM stations playing album tracks, including "To Each His Own", "California Revisited", and "Cornwall Blank". For this album and the next six throughout the next five years, the group traditionally chose titles beginning with the letter "H" (the self-titled debut album became unofficially included in this distinction when fans started referring to it as the "Horse with No Name" album when that track was added to later pressings).
