For many years, John Tesh went near unrecognised as a instrumentalist and composer, rather enjoying television success as the co-host of the nightly showbiz news magazine Entertainment Tonight; while his initial attempts to mount a recording career were met with contempt and ridicule, he enjoyed the last laugh on his detractors, rising to become one of new historic period instrumental music's biggest superstars.

In 1986, Tesh left CBS to legion the syndicated Entertainment Tonight with co-anchor Mary Hart; piece telecasting remained his primary focus, he continued writing and performing music, and in 1988 issued his showtime record album, Turn de France. Critics panned his brand name of melodramatic, orchestral new long time music, merely the success of farther efforts including 1989's Garden City proven a ontogenesis audience existed for his work. In 1991, Tesh won some other couple of Emmys for his medicine for NBC Sports' insurance coverage of the World Track and Field Championships; a yr later on, he formed his have label, GTS, and issued Romanticistic Christmas, his biggest attain to engagement. Smashes including 1993's Monterey Nights and 1994's Adolphe Sax by the Fire followed, and in 1995 Tesh's PBS exceptional and record album Live at Red Rocks emerged as something of a phenomenon. He shortly left wing Entertainment Tonight to focus all of his energies on music, grading serial hits with the likes of 1996's Sax on the Beach and its 1997 followup, Adolphe Sax All Night.
