- Reviewed in the United States on August 19, 2024Every song is fantastic. I play it all the time. ,all John’s early hit songs and many of his newer ones never played on the radio. Good purchase.
- Reviewed in the United States on August 4, 2024Like it all the way - no dislikes
- Reviewed in the United States on July 18, 2024This 2 disc set has most of the biggest hits.
- Reviewed in the United States on August 8, 2017With John Denver having so many crossover songs,
this set includes the majority of his single releases on both Pop & Country.
> Pop = 1971 to 1984 Denver charted 33 songs - 28 are here.
Missing 2 Christmas songs & 3 that didn't chart well - # 60 - 81 - 97
> Country = 1971 to 1989 Denver charted 27 songs - 20 are here.
(mostly do to crossover hits)
Missing two of the same as on pop chart = 1 Christmas & the # 60 pop only went to # 70 country.
PLUS missing 6 - country chart only. # 64 - 47 - 57 - 96 - and one release - 'Sweet Melinda' that didn't make any chart.
> Awe = but 'And So It Goes' charted # 14 - a nice song with the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band is MIA.
What an outstanding compilation of John Denver's music.
This 2 CD set includes 36 tracks = 30 of which were written / or co-written by John Denver.
Nice to have a respectable collection of Denver's career released by his original recording label - R.C.A. (Legacy)
Nicely packaged - with fold-out liner notes.

- Reviewed in the United States on May 24, 2016I'm a relatively new fan of John Denver - discovered him last year by watching a documentary about his life on public television. I love most of the songs on this 2-CD set (could do w/o the Cowboy/Lady song and a few others that are not to my taste). But I have viewed video clips online and especially lament that "This Old Guitar" is NOT in this collection! That song is really beautiful, heartfelt and moving. He himself describes it as his autobiography in a just under 2 minutes - words to that effect -- and when he sings it, you feel how meaningful it is to him. Surely it is "Essential" John Denver – a song he performed frequently at his concerts, and I am baffled that the producers of this set opted to leave it out of this collection. (I also recently purchased the DVD of the Wildlife Concert and feel cheated that "This Old Guitar" was chopped out, even though John Denver apparently DID perform this song at that concert -- it is included in the 2-disc CD version of the concert, which I don't have. What are/were the producers thinking?)

2.0 out of 5 stars Poor packing, hard plastic cover was broken
Song collections and the recording is of no question, absolute beauty. But hard plastic cover was broken in delivery, cheap packing. 2 stars for packing not for the collection of songs in it, there is no question about the songs which are included. CD1 is my pick of the best, i have those songs in my Vinyl as well but that quality beats the CD. I bought this CD just as a back up for my VINYL and i prefer hearing it in that than the CD.

5.0 out of 5 stars Essential.
Tutti i brani musicali, inseriti in quesato CD, sono splendidi da ascoltare, soprattutto per la bella e dolce voce di John Denver. La forte emozione che emerge dai suoi brani fa rabbrividire, Per me è l'icona del fascino musicale. Ascoltarlo è meraviglioso.
