Garth Brooks announced on ABC's "Good Morning America" on Thursday that talkshoplive will exclusively stream highlights from Garth: Live from Central Park for the first time since 1997 on Sunday, August 7, in celebration of the concert's 25th anniversary.
Brooks will go live from Studio G in Nashville during this special event to cut in and intersperse live commentary as he showcases some of his favorite moments from his 1997 historic musical event.
On August 7, 1997, an estimated one million people showed up to the once-in-a-lifetime concert. The HBO special was the most-watched special on cable television in 1997, drawing 14.6 million television viewers. It was also nominated for six Primetime Emmy Awards, including Outstanding Performance in a Variety or Music Program; and Outstanding Variety, Music or Comedy Special.
"Time is a friend to all things good, and the Central Park Concert will forever remain a GREAT chapter in our story," said Brooks.
Earlier this week, Brooks joined live from his studio on talkshoplive with SiriusXM The Highway's Storme Warren for a release party for The Anthology, Part II: The Next Five Years.
