Too bad John Denver went home with the Lord so early, he had a lot of good music for us. Enjoy this CD very much!Free Music Review: TImeless

John Denver is simply one our American treasures, his songs are timeless. I'm a new Denver convert and listening to these songs now make me think they are in no way out of place or time. American folk rock/country at its best. If you want to pick up an album with all of Denver's hits and even some non-hits this is it. The album also includes: an informative blurb about Denver's music and career written by a fan, several wonderful pictures of Denver, small pics of all his albums, some interesting quick notes about each song, and vital stats about each song (but no lyrics sadly).Free Music Review: The best single CD collection
Hit: 5 Stars
This is the best single CD John Denver collection available. With as many hits as he had throughout his career it is impossible to get them all on a single CD, this set does about as well as can be expected. It while it may be missing a few hits, it includes all his essential songs and classics. Highly recommended.Free Music Review: Dissatisfied

I received this item with two bad songs on it that wouldnt play. Someone was kind enough to send a replacement which also was not as expected. On the second disc there are several songs in which there is a pulsating sound on it that is not part of the song. It's distracting but too much trouble to get into again. Bottom line, Im dissatisfied with both and dont use or play either. A bad experience for me.Free Music Review: The best single-CD collection of John's work available.

First off, let me just say that there will never be another John Denver. He has solidified himself as one the history's most beloved song writers. Now, onto the nitty gritty. This CD contains 24 songs. The 1st 20 songs are on the 1st CD and contain all of John's #1 hits. A treat on this CD, for me anyway, was the entire LIVE version of "Thank God I'm A Country Boy. That's right, all 3:22 seconds of it. It also contains alot of the songs that people call their favorites of his like "The Eagle and the Hawk" and "Farewell Andromeda (Welcome To My Morning)" among others. The other 4 songs are on the 2nd CD, and are previously un-released material. The CD contains an alternate version of "Leaving On A Jetplane", "The Weight", an acoustic version of "Annie's Song" and an acoustic version of "Calypso". The inside booklet of the CD has plenty of inside info for you. Publicity shots, original LP covers, an essay on John and his music, and descriptions of how each song came to be. Ofcourse, the most important, vital part of any CD is the sound quality. This is the best restoration I've ever encountered of John's music. Some compilations have only managed to digitalize the sound until it has no more feeling. That isn't the case here. These songs have been restored to perfection, and only to that point. Another great part of it is that these songs are the original cuts. I for one, have been a victim multiple times of finding a CD of John Denver in some store, look at the songs on it, and think it's just what I've been wanting, only to get home and find that they are the horrible re-releases that I've been tricked into buying not once, not twice, but three times in the past. Alot of reviews claim that there is a better value in "The Essential John Denver" collection. That collection may be suitable for some. But for those of you who just want 1 CD with all the got-to-haves on it, skip "The Essential" collection and choose this one wich, between the two, has superior sound quality. And plus, at this price, it is absolutely unbeatable. So if you find yourself wanting the best single CD compilation of John Denver available out there, this is without a shadow of a doubt the answer.
