In conjunction with the tour sponsorship, Reader's Digest Music will produce Engelbert Humperdinck's first-ever career-spanning retrospective box set, to be released on May 11, incorporating all of the artist's greatest hits along with his great romantic standards including "Release Me," "Quando, Quando, Quando" and "A Man Without Love."
Additional partnership initiatives include Reader's Digest Music hospitality areas in select tour cities, ticket giveaways, consumer website and Internet promotions, in-venue signage and on-site marketing opportunities at the venues.
Len Handler, Reader's Digest Music's Director of Product Development, said, "We are thrilled to be Engelbert Humperdinck's 2006 tour sponsor. Engelbert's fans are legendary, and he is one of our customers' favorite artists. The Reader's Digest Music brand is synonymous with the world's greatest artists and music, and we are proud to be able to offer Engelbert's first-ever boxed set. We are committed to deeper involvement with our artists and customers, and working closely with Engelbert on the tour gives us a great chance to achieve that goal."
One of the world's most enduring musical artists, Engelbert Humperdinck has generated sales of more than 130 million records -- his honors include 64 Gold albums, 24 Platinum albums, four Grammy Awards, a Golden Globe and a Star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame -- in a career spanning four decades and counting. He has performed for British Royalty, U.S. Presidents and heads of state worldwide.
His classic hit, "Release Me," recently enjoyed new life in the Top Ten in the Billboard Dance charts after being covered by The Humps as part of a hit dance / remix set. A platinum-selling theme song for a Beavis and Butthead movie endeared him to millions of new fans and showcased his famous sense of humor.
