Dissatisfied January 19, 2008
0 out of 6 found this review helpful

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.

The best single-CD collection of John's work available. January 11, 2008
4 out of 4 found this review helpful

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.

John Denver-Definitive-All Times Greatest Hits September 13, 2007
3 out of 3 found this review helpful

This CD is AWESOME!!! It took me back to my childhood. Listening to these songs brought back the few good memories I have. It is so peaceful and relaxing to listen to "Fly Away" and "Calypso". What awesome songs!!! It makes me wonder what has happened to music these days. This is a God-given talent we just don't see or hear anymore.

Denver's repertoire of songs begins to sound repetitive as if he has 3 or 4 songs that he recycles over and over August 3, 2007

I guess this can be said if most composers, but Denver's pool of signature tunes seems especially limited. I wonder if he would have come up with more templates if he had lived.

John Denver is and always will be a classic. This CD package has all of the favorites but is also comprehensive to include many of the seldom heard but deliteful compositions. Very peaceful. br /
