Rhino Entertainment will release the Barry Manilow: Songs From The Seventies DVD on January 29, 2008.

Performing live in his old Brooklyn stomping grounds, Barry Manilow's latest DVD is the best sort of homecoming. A wonderfully entertaining television special, Barry Manilow: Songs From The Seventies was filmed in September 2007 at the old Navy Yard in Brooklyn, “right down the block from where I grew up in Williamsburg," as Manilow explains onstage. The special premiered on PBS stations across the nation in early December, and will now be made available on DVD.

Rhino, in association with Stiletto Television, captures the artist's triumphant return to his old neighborhood where he sings his biggest hits -- and some great covers -- from the decade that made him famous. The two-DVD set includes the television special in 5.1 Surround Sound on the first disc, plus a bonus disc featuring an unaired mini-concert of alternate performances, along with behind-the-scenes footage. Barry Manilow: Songs From The Seventies will be available in stores and at www.rhino.com January 29. An excellent companion to Manilow's latest smash album, The Greatest Songs of the Seventies -which debuted in the Top 5 -- this special finds Manilow focusing on the music of the decade when he became one of music's biggest stars.
