On October 12, 1997, pop-music icon John Denver died piloting an experimental aircraft near Monterey, California.
He called his music "Western" and his career spanned more than 30 years with hits including:
Take Me Home, Country Roads
Rocky Mountain High
Leaving on a Jet Plane
Poems, Prayers and Promises
Sunshine on My Shoulders
Thank God I'm a Country Boy
Perhaps Love
Dreamland Express
He sold tens of millions of records and deeply loved "the out of doors".
Denver's hauntingly beautiful music lives on today through his recordings and videos. That gift allows those of us who knew him to continue to enjoy his gift.
For the young, the recordings represent the chance to experience a unique talent they have yet to enjoy.
NOTE:
The Country Roads clip at the end is from John's last TV concert. I was always a fan but I don't think he ever sounded or looked better than he did in that performance. It's available on DVD and CD and the quality is excellent.
