[spoiler="Об исполнителе (группе)"]
Rock singer/guitarist John Parr can’t exactly be declared as a one-hit wonder, since he scored two hit singles, but he seems to have been all but forgotten over time. Parr’s self-titled 1984 debut spawned a modest hit with “Naughty Naughty,” a track that possessed a rock edge but managed to be melodic at the same time. But Parr’s biggest hit was just around the corner — “St. Elmo’s Fire (Man in Motion),” the theme song from the 1985 movie St. Elmo’s Fire (which starred such ’80s heartthrobs as Rob Lowe and Emilio Estevez).
Letter to America is a lifetime inspired 2-disc collection which includes one disc of John performing his old and new hits with his band, as well as one disc of acoustic tracks.

[spoiler="Об альбоме (сборнике)"]
After a 15 year hiatus, Parr is returning to his second home for an extensive tour, to celebrate his new album titled “Letter To America”.
The 2-CD release features some of his popular hits from years gone by, as “The Minute I Saw You” and “The Best a Man Can Get”, and a variety of new songs as well.
Produced by Parr, the first audio disc showcases Parr with his band performing fan favorites including Parr's #1 hit "St. Elmo's Fire" and the unforgettable hit "Naughty Naughty".
This live recording sounds really big and polished, and on many tracks rocks seriously, with potent guitars big reverbered drums.
John's vocals are still in good form, and the selection of songs spawns the best of his solo work.

The second audio disc features acoustic versions of some classics, and new songs.
This is a really interesting disc, as we can hear here stripped arrangements of these, at one time ('80s - '90s) super-produced songs. And the good result demonstrates how good are those tunes. A good song is a good song, no matter how much a producer can embellish it with studio tricks.
John also wrote "Comin' Home" exclusively about his journey back to America to play his music. This is an inspirational and touching melody not only about John's journey home to America but everyone's heartfelt journey back to their home's and loved ones after having ventured away.
Also included is "Ghost Driver" (full band studio produced track), one of his '90s songs full of magic, with atmospheric keyboards and awesome guitars.

If you love the '80s, "Letter To America" is a must have.
Includes all Parr hits, new songs, and newly re-worked versions carefully recorded and organically produced.
