Recorded at The Palace, New Haven, Connecticut 1982
With over 120 albums under his belt and sales topping 60 million, Paul Anka is one of the most consistently successful artists in history. In a career spanning five decades, the Ontario-born songwriter has been covered by everyone from Elvis Presley to Barbra Streisand, Tom Jones to the Sex Pistols, Frank Sinatra to Robbie Williams. Captured live at The Palace in New Haven, Connecticut, this stellar performance is augmented by a grand orchestra and nostalgic clips from the early years, including The Dick Clark Show in 1959.
On tonight's menu are timeless classics "You Are My Destiny", "Lonely Boy" and "Diana" - the first thing he ever wrote and the song that made him an international teen idol in 1957.

In amongst the excitement, you might even find an impromptu impression of Tom Jones. Enjoy...
