Garth Brooks has revealed the cover for The Anthology, Part II: The Next Five Years. The Limited Edition Anthology is available exclusively on TalkShopLive and is on sale now.
The Next Five Years takes an in-depth look at the stories behind the songs and recording sessions for Fresh Horses, Sevens, The Limited Series, Double Live, and Scarecrow.
Brooks, the G-Men, Allen Reynolds, and Mark Miller reveal what was it like to record “Beer Run” with George Jones; Keith Urban describes his first time recording with Brooks, and listeners can discover which of Brooks’ songs was released as a rough mix among other facts on the new anthology.
In addition to the music, The Next Five Years chronicles Garth’s 24-hour signing session at Fan Fair in 1996 that demonstrated his powerful connection to his fans. It also explains the reason for the delay in the release of Sevens and his decision to announce his retirement.
On Aug. 1, fans can join Brooks live in his studio on TalkShopLive to hear some of the stories that are included in the Anthology, ask questions, and hear some new music. He picks up where he left off in The Anthology, Part I: The First Five Years, telling his story in his own words and offering fascinating insights to his career and personal life from 1996-2001.
“I learned a lot!” Brooks says, laughing. “The interviews (Bob Dylan, Keith Urban, Steve Wariner and more) just floored me! Miss [Trisha] Yearwood claimed there was a duet version of ‘To Make You Feel My Love’ that only she remembered. But when we found it buried deep in the vault, I was amazed how raw and beautiful it was!”
Completing the Anthology, Part II is a 6-disc set of musical highlights from albums released during that time along with two previously unreleased recordings.
