John Denver

Released in 1973, Greatest Hits only sums up a handful of years of hitmaking for John Denver, but what years those were.

John Denver wasn't merely hot during the mid-'70s; he was omnipresent on radio, TV, and on-stage for anyone who'd have him. Certainly, few artists enjoyed more than one greatest-hits collection – even if critics derided him as a granola-munching, tree-hugging folky who perennially smiled through life's hardships.

Since the John Denver classic Annie’s Song launched him as a contestant on the X Factor in 2012,Jason Owen has planned for this album. His pop, the much-loved patriarch of his family asked him again and again to do a tribute album. With his pop’s health on the decline and the 20th anniversary of the legend’s passing, Jason knew there was no better time for this album.

John Denver is one of the most successful and best loved recording artists of the 20th century. His easy going manner, fine voice, superb songwriting and dedication to environmental issues all combined to build a huge global fan base that has continued to grow since his untimely death in a plane crash in 1997. This superb 5-disc set is the definitive John Denver DVD release. There are three complete live performances with full band from Australia in 1977, Japan in 1981 and England in 1986. These are complemented by a solo acoustic performance from Japan in 1984 and his performances at Farm Aid from 1985, 1987 & 1990. The final disc has two hour long documentaries made by John Denver, his 1990 Earth Day program about environmental issues and his 1972 show about the Bighorn sheep of his beloved Rocky Mountains.
