Singer-songwriter John Denver touched millions of people, and achieved superstar status by his folk-inspired pop hits many of them based in Colorado. Henry John Deutschendorf Jr. was born Henry John Germandorf from Roswell in New Mexico fell in love with Colorado. The place he settled was Aspen. Denver's famous anthems about Colorado have been a major influence on many to make the move to Colorado. I can't think of anyone else who represents Colorado like John Denver said G. Brown curator of the Colorado Music Hall of Fame. Denver was the Hall of Fame's first to be inducted into the hall. Today, he is Colorado's international image. When I travel, you are likely to meet people from the other end of the globe. As an example, you might meet an individual who is from New Zealand. And when someone asks you if you're originally from Colorado you will get "Oh John Denver!" Brown declared. Take Me Home Country Roads is Denver's only Top 10 Hit as a solo artist after having worked within small Folk Music groups. The song was written by Bill Danoff. Danoff had Johnny Cash as the inspiration for the track, however Denver recognized that the song could become a smash hit when he heard an earlier version. The song was recorded just several weeks after that Washington D.C. performance.
