Holiday (America album)
''Holiday'' is the fourth original studio album by American folk rock band America, released by Warner Bros. Records in June 1974 (see 1974 in music). The album was produced in London by noted Beatles producer George Martin.
The album was a big hit in the US, reaching number 3 on the ''Billboard'' album chart and being certified gold by the RIAA. It produced two hit singles: "Tin Man" reached number 4 on the ''Billboard'' singles chart and went to number 1 on both the adult contemporary chart as well as the ''Radio & Records'' chart; and "Lonely People" which peaked at number 5 on the ''Billboard'' singles chart and also hit number 1 on the adult contemporary chart. Several other songs received radio airplay on FM stations playing album tracks, including "Baby It's Up To You" and "Another Try".
==History==
Bandmember Dewey Bunnell was thrilled at the prospect of working with Martin as producer. He was quoted as saying that it "was great working with George. It was like we knew each other. We were familiar with the Beatles, of course, and we had that British sense of humor."〔Hyatt, Wesley (1999). ''The Billboard Book of #1 Adult Contemporary Hits'' (Billboard Publications), page 147.〕
In a separate interview, Dan Peek recalled to ''Circus'' magazine: "Gerry (Beckley) had been in England, and we'd talked about using George Martin as our producer. He's such a hot arranger, thinking about all the stuff he's done. There were several other people we wanted to use, but that idea sort of flashed and George was available."〔(Lonely People Songfacts )〕
