Description

In a career that spanned decades, John Denver earned international acclaim as a singer, songwriter, actor, and environmental activist. Songs like "Take Me Home, Country Roads", "Rocky Mountain High", and "Annie's Song" have entered the canon of universal anthems, but at his start John Denver was a young man with little more than a fine voice, a guitar, and a dream. Growing up in a conservative military family, he was not expected to drop out of college and head to Los Angeles, where the music scene was flourishing. Nor was he expected to succeed. In Take Me Home, John Denver chronicles the experiences that shaped his life, while unraveling the rich, inner journey of a shy Midwestern boy whose uneasy partnership with fame has been one of the defining forces of his first 50 years. With candor and wit, John writes about his childhood, the experience of hitting L.A. as the '60s roared into full swing, his first breaks, his years with the Mitchell Trio, his first songwriting success with "Leaving on a Jet Plane", and finally a career that made his a global household name. He also explores his relationships with the women in his life - particularly his first wife, Annie Martell, and his second wife, Cassandra Delaney - as well as his parents, his children, his partners through his life, and his friends.

Honest, insightful and rich in anecdotes that only a natural-born storyteller could tell so well, Take Me Home is a highly charged and fascinating audiobook from beginning to end. It's like spending a couple of days with a good friend.

Very Enjoyable.

Loved it. I have always loved John Denver and his music. I really enjoyed learning about the man and some of the stories behind his songs. The book was interesting and entertaining. I can listen to John Denver all day long.

It's so great to hear his voice

I am about 1/3 through listening to this book and it's so great he's narrating this himself, just outside his home in Aspen. I think that's the best part. He is outside? Very cool. Too bad he didn't do the whole book although when I read the book it wasn't as good as it could have been. The TV movie however is horrible. Everything is out of order and sorry to Chad Lowe but he was nothing like John at all. Kirsten who played Annie was great. Just a B grade TV movie made about an A grade citizen of earth. John and his family truly deserve a proper movie before he is totally forgotten. To think that the Buddy Holly movie was made about 20 years after his death. Now it's been well over 20 years after Johns death. We really need a proper movie done of this amazing mans life. A proper version that truly showed his intellect, charm, music and care for the world. Taken too soon - who knows what great melodies and lyrics we are missing. An inspiring soul, gone too soon.
