4 stars for the 2 disk version - i should have looked at the track list before buying (1 stars)
Shame on the music companies for putting out a one-disc version that was missing key songs (Today, Boy from the Country, and even more from the extended version) not available ANYWHERE ELSE. Get rid of some of the songs which are on every greatest hits, if you need room, for god's sake. |  | | | Far Out? You Bet! (5 stars)
I can think of very, very few performers today who can convey a true love of performing in front of an audience. For those who can't, audiences can see right through it. So many performers today simply go through the motions, and so many audiences put up with it. Anyone who saw John Denver perform live know that he enjoyed giving of himself. I can almost hear Denver saying to himself after the final song, "What? It's over? Where did the time go?"You'll wonder where the time went after listening to this disc. Every song, from "The Music is You" to the touching "This Old Guitar," come across as a heart-felt treasure. Denver had talent, desire, and showmanship. He can deliver hits ("Annie's Song," "Take Me Home, Country Roads," "Rocky Mountain High"), humor ("Toledo," "Forest Lawn"), and songs of beauty and depth ("The Eagle and the Hawk," "Poems, Prayers and Promises"). After hearing Denver's comments in between numbers, you'll understand why so many people loved him and continue to love his music. One moment stands out for me and has ever since I first heard the song nearly 30 years ago. You can't miss the pure joy that exudes from Denver in "Thank God I'm a Country Boy." His excitement is addictive and the audience picks up on it immediately. I've never been able to hear the crowd's jubilation at the end of the song without smiling and thinking, "I wish I'd been there." I wasn't, but I'm grateful that RCA was. This is a wonderful concert by wonderful entertainer. TOTAL TIME: 74:27 | | | | An Evening with John Denver ROCKS! (5 stars)
I love this c.d. It's great because it feels
like you are at the concert with them. John is
a great performer and funny too. I love all of
his stuff,but this is one of my favorite c.d.'s.
Everyone should listen to it. | | | | Just a little different from the album I remember (4 stars)
I have loved jd since I first heard Take Me Home Country Roads in 2nd grade. I bought or received every album he came out with until the early 80's, including this one.
I bought this one to update my collection to CD, and the ONLY repeat ONLY disappointment was the absence of the song "Today." This wasn't noted very well in the Amazon item descriptions, I found a small notice printed on the CD jacket that these songs were omitted due to copyright restrictions.
Hopefully, I will be able to find a version that has the complete (or even bonus) tracks of the original album.
Update: There is a two-disc version of this that includes all the original tracks, as well as four previously unreleased songs recorded in the late 60's/early 70's. | | | | GET THE 2 CD VERSION OF THIS! (3 stars)
WAIT, HOLD EVERYTHING, DONT PUT THIS IN YER BASKET. DO YOURSELF A FAVOR AND GET THE 2 CD VERSION. WHY? CUZ' THE ENTIRE CONCERT IS WONDERFULL, DONT SETTLE FOR LESS WITH THIS 1 CD VERSION. NO COMPRAMISES SHOULD BE MADE WHEN IT COMES TO JOHN DENVER'S WONDERFULL GIFTS TO US ALL...... | | | |
