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.

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.
