Customer Reviews

Feel good music
I was inspired to buy this CD because of my brother. He would call me on the phone just excited to be alive after hearing John's music. Mind you, he is a successful business guy who grew up listening to the Stones, Black Sabbath and good old Rock n Roll, but for some reason the sounds of John Denver called and he answered. Now, so have I. After hearing " I'm Leavin On a Jet Plane..don't know when I'll be back again" I was sucked in and I felt my spirits lift.

John Denver's soft and light lyrics continue to dance in our hearts and lift our moods. This CD has all great hits that we remember. Sunshine on my shoulders (makes me happy), Annies song, Calypso, Fly away...you won't go wrong with this collection of John Denver's greats. I understand his music more now, than I ever have before. He was good to his core, and his music reflects who he was. A must own for a collection of any genre'.

Denver Collection Lives Up to Title
Wonderful collection for anyone who wants the best of John Denver's many hits. I recently went to a John Denver review show with a friend and was reminded how touching and inspirational his music can be. Was going to pull a few songs off of iTunes, but decided my money was better spent on this collection. Was not dissappointed.

Music to share with new generations
My Granddaughter heard Calypso when she was in the car with me. Now she's addicted to John Denver songs!

After all, how many of today's musical artists sing, "Come let me love you, let me give my life to you...Let me drown in your Passion; let me die in your arms"...
