David Foster: Hitman w/Michael Johns, K.McPhee, etc.
I found this in today's Target flyer, a new release on 11/4:

from the Amazon blurb:
Quote:The spectacular one-night only concert of David Foster and Friends, featuring Foster, Andrea Bocelli, Michael Buble, Josh Groban, Katharine McPhee, Celine Dion, Blake Shelton, Brian McKnight and Charice, is now available on CD and DVD. Spotlighting #1 hits, award-winning songs and other favorites-all but one originally penned and/or produced by Foster-the May 23, 2008 show at the Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas was unforgettable. Now 'Hit Man: David Foster and Friends' scores a direct hit with music fans at home.

Michael Johns performs Beauty/Man in Motion on the DVD. Man in Motion is the St.Elmo's Fire theme (for those of you who missed the 1980s).
McPhee does
Somewhere, and Prayer with Andrea Bocelli.

Other artists I enjoy, not on the list above include Boz Scaggs and Peter Cetera.

Am not a fan of Kat's voice or style (lack of ?) but good grief is she going to be saddled with that song forever ?
Have to wonder if this isn't a collection of things already in the can and Foster is just bringing them together in hopes of making a quick buck ?
Checked the titles and artists - - defintely not interested. If available as mp3s might pick up a few individual tunes, but couldn't make it though the whole thing in a conscious state. ermm

I. do. not. like. David. Foster. Just typing his name makes me want to hit something. I would love to see the Michael Johns' performance...not sure I can stomach the entire show.

Sometimes I think, it's just a simple thing
I close my eyes and I realize all I really need
Is a love I had, and the love I had to give
Cause anything else there is – is insignificant
In this tiny life.

AH: I believe these performances were from a Las Vegas gala that took place last spring. It may also show up as a PBS fundraiser, so if you don't want to spend $17.99 at Target, you can no doubt donate $250 to your favorite PBS station instead.

And I agree, it would be painful to watch the whole thing, but there are individual performances that interest me.
