John Denver was an amazing talent. That is a sweet looking box set! It's nice when they have the original gatefolds in these box sets, even if you can't read the text as you say. 😄
"Prisoners." "The Box." I think I heard him say somewhere that he was more (at some point) a Western singer, rather than a Country singer. But then the 80s happened and he found the sax intriguing. And yet still he trudged on and continued successfully. The Wildlife Concert is phenomenal. Especially his performance of "For You." Love all his albums. From the Mitchell Trio to "All Aboard!" There's a 1991 song called "The Blizzard" that just blows my mind. Love "Shanghai Breezes" as well. The 1966 demo is amazing. He had his hits and misses but to get all these in one block is a dream! Man you presented this well. I have got to get this set! Blaine, Tutt, Scheff, & Burton. Sounds like a law firm but really it's the best of the best when it comes to session guys. I have (in some form) all the albums except for the last release (just after "All Aboard") "Love Again" which would later be re-released as his final recordings under different titles but omitting 4 songs or so. I'm rambling (as "This Old Guitar" goes flying through my head) but thanx for the post. So looking forward to your upcoming series on the individual albums. Man this was good. I was wondering about this compilation but now I am totally considering this collection. Thanx my friend, and until next time, take care!
Seasons of the Heart from 1982 is still a fantastic album from John Denver in my opinion.
Super video Matthew. I have the first issue of this box set from 2012.. That had a side opening outer box not a clamshell like yours here. You are right the greatest hits collection had some songs re-recorded and TGIACB on GH2 is the live version from AEWJD (I have a promo LP of that on vinyl). The extra tracks on the 2nd CD of AEWJD are from a concert at Red Rocks. Be nice to chat all things JD sometime! Cheers, Colin.
Fantastic box, enjoy it Matthew. I appreciate the forthcoming album reviews very much👍🏻
What a pristine looking collection! I'd love to have that one!
This was great, Mathew!! I was ten when I started getting into John Denver when my sister had his first greatest hits album. Then When I was 11 my mom got Back Home Again and Windsong. Love his music. It's been a huge part of my life.
Hi Matthew. I have been a John Denver Fan since 1994. I bought all of John's albums on CD from 1966 The Chad Mitchell Trio Years
I just own a greatest hits album and that will do for me, but I absolutely love Leaving On A Jet Plane and Peter,Paul and Mary’s version brings back some special memories when it was a U.K. top 5 hit in early 1970.
Enjoyed your video on this Denver release! Never a huge fan but enjoy a few of his songs! Always enjoy your videos on other releases besides the Beatles Of all the Beatles channels you talk about new releases of other artists and more wider variety of music than just the Beatles
Like you, I was 11 years old in 1972 and I loved John Denver also, Matt. I still love many of his songs. You are 100% right: if it makes us happy to listen to it, THAT is what we should listen to, period. Life is too short to do otherwise. Love your videos, my friend. Jeff
Denver was a master songwriter brother! ❤
Great video! I hppe one of the albums you deep dive is Arie. I had a friend in the early 80s from Vuetnam who was a huge JD fan and that was his favorite album.
Love John Denver! I’ve just paid around £50-100 for nearly all his albums on vinyl. His music is magical ❤ really wish they’d release ‘Earth Songs’ and his later albums on vinyl. I’d buy them in a second!
I just found out a week or so ago that a song I sang in elementary school music class was "The Garden Song" and John Denver played it on Sesame Street, video is here on RUclips!
Actually his first greatest hits compilation which his best selling album came out in November 1973. It was his first US # 1 album out of a total of three.
Wowza!! Great set there Matt......John was a great singer/songwriter right up there with Gordon Lightfoot ....cheers ☮️❤️🍻😳☺️
Love Denver's work. Watching this got me to put on a great 2 cd compilation of his work while you go over the set. Thanks for showing love to someone who I think is a very underrated/underappreciated singer/songwriter. I think because of that "thank god I'm a country boy" TV show image he had he was overlooked by the critics.. I've never been a diehard but I love his stuff. I remember as a kid when my mom bought his first greatest hits album in 1973 and we just played that album over and over. First songs that got me to listen to and appreciate country sounding music. Sunshine on my shoulders and Rocky Mountain High are still 2 songs of his that still blow me away every time I hear them. And there are others, Follow Me, My Sweet Lady, Annie's Song, Gospel Changes, Goodbye Again etc. The funny thing, do we hear ANY music made today with such simplicity, honesty, and beauty? Sad that today his music is really sort of forgotten.
Thanks matt
I was hoping to do a collab video talking about this... but I forgot to text you! This video makes me glad that I bought it!
