wedding jmusic (5 stars)
The shipping is so fast and well packaged. What else can one say about John Denver's music...we bought this to be played at our wedding..the recessional and will lift everyone's spirits...he had one of those exceptional talents that mix a variety of eras. Thanks |  | | | Pleasant John Denver Performances - But NOT The Originals Of His "Best" (2 stars)
One thing you have to be wary of whenever you see a volume from Madacy, based in St. Laurent, Quebec, Canada is that, more often than not, what they are presenting as someone's "best" is actually re-recordings of some of their biggest hits. This one, despite the connection to EMI-Capitol, is no exception. It was recorded at 16th Avenue Sound in Nashville the year before his untimely death on October 12, 1997 at age 53 in an airplane accident.
So, don't expect to hear Placido Domingo on the 1982 hit Perhaps Love (or even the John Denver solo version from his 1982 LP Seasons Of The Heart), or Sylvie Vartan on the 1984 hit Love Again. Nor do Fat City (Bill Danoff and Terry Nivert) of The Starland Express Band back him on Take Me Home Country Roads.
Not horrible recordings by any means - but these types of CDs need to be better advertised as re-makes, especially if ordering on-line as there you never get to see the "fine print."

My husband and I like John's older voice in these songs. We just like his songs, period. I bought this to replace the same cd because it was badly scratched and my husband was sad about that. We also have 'An Evening with John Denver', which is an excellent and very fun album. | | | | Outstanding (5 stars)
Been a fan for decades, and this is not only one of the best John Denver albums I`ve heard, but one of the most beautiful recordings I`ve ever heard,,,,period. | | | | simply beautiful (5 stars)
This CD is beautiful.... just fabulous... and for any who are worried about the "older John Denver," I noticed his Unplugged album was also recorded the year before his death, many of these same songs, and that CD also has resounding, overwhelming postive reviews. This CD has not stopped playing since I bought it! Five stars just because that's all they offer ....... it is spellbinding....... | | | |
