  • Bio

    American folk singer ..John Denver.. was an artist in the most genuine sense of the word – he used his craft to change the world. A songwriter, performer, actor, environmentalist and humanitarian, Denver was not only one of the most beloved entertainers of the 1970s but a leading advocate of global causes until his tragic death in 1997. Songs such as "Take Me Home, Country Roads" and "Sunshine on My Shoulders" garnered him critical acclaim while simultaneously catapulting his gentle message towards the earth, peace, and compassion to the masses. It was this ardent and steadfast love of nature that came to identify ..John Denver.. as "The Poet for the Planet." Earning three American Music Award honors and two posthumous Grammys, Denver was inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame in 1996.

    Hallo.
    John Denver ist einer der Musiker gewesen, der mich am meisten im Laufe meiner Gitarrenübungsstunden, Livedarbietungen und musikalischem Werdegang begleitet hat. Ich kenne - und spiele immer noch viele Lieder von ihm. Und die Nachricht über seinen Tod hat mich vor allem deswegen traurig gemacht, weil ich ihn nie live erleben konnte und ich ihn gerne mal persönlich kennen gelernt hätte.
    Hier in Deutschland hat er ja den Namen "Henry John Deutschendorf" ....und er hat in einem Film mal Gott gespielt und in einem anderen einen Modellflugzeugspeziallist,...genial. Er war auch als Schauspieler sehenswert.
    Leaving on a jet plane.....ich vermiss dich John. Aber ich werd Dir wohl dann im Himmel mal irgendwann begegnen.....
