John Denver in Minnesota--MMHC Legends Series
Before he became famous for his songs about country roads and Colorado mountains, John Denver made his home in suburban Edina.
On his way to stardom, Denver lived in an Edina apartment and wrote much of the material for his first three albums here, including his first No. 1 song, “Sunshine on My Shoulders,” according to Denver’s obituary written by Star Tribune writer Jon Bream.
How did Denver, who is most associated with his adopted state of Colorado, happen to live in Minnesota?
He married a St. Peter girl, Ann Martell, whom he met while on tour in 1966 when she attended Gustavus Aldophus College. Then a virtual unknown and without financial backing from his record company, Denver toured s...

    Interesting she didn't see herself as a hippy, but as a Beek nick. Because I saw her as the true hippie which means "savy one, or one who is wise to." The way the term was used originally meant the "wise ones." Hip to, meant you were wise to what was going on. They were the ones not really dupped by society. She was definitely in that category. In fact, she suffered in ways I think she felt rejected, because she didn't know what a bad-ass she really was. There was a power there by her child like spirit that I could see caused red-necks to squirm in their seats while she and many "colored folk" sang Lay Down. You have to see the power of how some of those surrendered and were encouraged to sing along. Melanie in that movement was bringing a uniting force where there was division. This is a sign of a sent one, and angel to minister to the blind.

      Thanks for being a fan Shirley---I have broken down the Legends Heroes Ghosts and Gangsters film project into 4 different spinoffs. Patty's story will be part of the Heroes film (She was definitely one of Minnesota's true heroes back in the day) --More coming including 3 congressional medal of honor winners, the 87-world series winning twins. Mary Jo Copeland (Minnesota's saint of the streets) and many more that you may or may not have heard of. This will be finished in 2025. Because Halloween is coming in the next few weeks you can look forward to a few sneak previews from the "Ghosts" series which will be coming out late 2025/ early 2026 and I've got the music beds for the Gangsters series started as well including Ma Barker, Kid Cann, and portraits of others during that notorious period in Twin town which will be coming out early 2027. So stay tuned .. It should be a fun ride.

      Hey Mick-Glad to see you finally got the certificate. It was me who mentioned to John Kass that because you were talked about as one of the members in Wikipedia that you should be inducted as well. He said it was out of his control and said he would pass it on to the board. I asked Denny Johnson from MinniePaul who played Bass with them for several years in the 80’s if he would like me to mention it to John as well, and he said "no, the award should go only to the original 5". Lots of players were left out at the awards presentation that night and in the video I tried to give them all their due for their contributions.... I was there and was disappointed that you were not one of the ones they gave Crow certificates to distribute to members at the ceremony. I'm very glad you finally got one. Congratulations- You deserve to be in there and it’s a very tough award to get
