One of the world's best-known and best-loved performers,John Denver earned international acclaim as a songwriter,performer,actor,environmentalist and humanitarian.John鈥檚 music has spanned three decades,outlasted countless musical trends,and garnered numerous music awards and honors,including a 1996 Induction into the Songwriter鈥檚 Hall of Fame,and in 1993,the prestigious Albert Schweitzer Music award.
The son of a U.S Air Force officer,John鈥檚 artistic journey began after the family moved to Tucson,where at age eleven,he was given his grandmother鈥檚 guitar.John eventually took up guitar lessons and joined a boy鈥檚 choir,which led him at age 20 to take matters into his own hands and pursue his dream of a career in music.
In 1963 he struck out on his own,moving to Los Angeles to be in the heart of the burgeoning music scene.It was during this time that Henry John Deutschendorf Jr.was urged by friends to change his name if a recording career was to be in his future.His friends suggested the name John Sommerville,but he ultimately took his stage name from the beautiful Rocky Mountain capital city of Colorado,his home state.
John Denver experienced his first major break in the music industry when he was chosen from 250 other hopefuls as lead singer for the popular Mitchell Trio.Two years and three albums later,John had honed his considerable vocal talent and developed his own song writing style.He soon gained recognition when his song Leaving On A Jet Plane was recorded by Peter,Paul and Mary,becoming their first and only Number One hit.
Less than two years later,after the trio disbanded,John himself was climbing up the Pop charts with songs like 鈥淭ake Me Home,Country Roads,鈥 鈥淩ocky Mountain High,鈥 鈥淪unshine On My Shoulders,鈥 鈥淎nnie鈥檚 Song,鈥 鈥淏ack Home Again,鈥 鈥淭hank God I鈥檓 A Country Boy,鈥 and 鈥淐alypso,鈥 鈥搒olidifying his position as one of the top stars of the decade.
Denver's concert tours reached millions globally.The world embraced John - captivated by each new release,including 14 gold albums and 8 platinum albums in the U.S as well as numerous gold and platinum sales overseas.
All of this emerged as a reflection of John鈥檚 personal growth and artistic evolution.By his third album in 1970,John鈥檚 social and political leanings were defined more clearly.John was one of the first artists to share an environmental message through his music,beginning with the song 鈥淲hose Garden Was This?This was the first in a long line of songs that he wrote about the environment..
Fans responded to his environmental and humanitarian messages,heartfelt urgings towards the earth,peace,and compassion that were consistently communicated in a gentle manner on his records and at live performances.
His passion to help create a global community paved the way for ventures into new musical and geographic territories.In 1985 he was invited by the Soviet Union of Composers to perform in their country,inspiring the internationally acclaimed song 鈥淟et Us Begin (What Are We Making Weapons For?)鈥?which was featured on John鈥檚 25th album 鈥淥ne World鈥?(cont...)

One of the world's best-known and best-loved performers, John Denver earned international acclaim as a songwriter, performer, actor, environmentalist and humanitarian. John’s music has spanned three decades, outlasted countless musical trends, and garnered numerous music awards and honors, including a 1996 Induction into the Songwriter’s Hall of Fame, and in 1993, the prestigious Albert Schweitzer Music award.
The son of a U.S Air Force officer, John’s artistic journey began after the family moved to Tucson, where at age eleven, he was given his grandmother’s guitar. John eventually took up guitar lessons and joined a boy’s choir, which led him at age 20 to take matters into his own hands and pursue his dream of a career in music.
In 1963 he struck out on his own, moving to Los Angeles to be in the heart of the burgeoning music scene. It was during this time that Henry John Deutschendorf Jr. was urged by friends to change his name if a recording career was to be in his future. His friends suggested the name John Sommerville, but he ultimately took his stage name from the beautiful Rocky Mountain capital city of Colorado, his home state.
John Denver experienced his first major break in the music industry when he was chosen from 250 other hopefuls as lead singer for the popular Mitchell Trio. Two years and three albums later, John had honed his considerable vocal talent and developed his own song writing style. He soon gained recognition when his song Leaving On A Jet Plane was recorded by Peter, Paul and Mary, becoming their first and only Number One hit.
Less than two years later, after the trio disbanded, John himself was climbing up the Pop charts with songs like “Take Me Home, Country Roads,” “Rocky Mountain High,” “Sunshine On My Shoulders,” “Annie’s Song,” “Back Home Again,” “Thank God I’m A Country Boy,” and “Calypso,” –solidifying his position as one of the top stars of the decade.
Denver's concert tours reached millions globally. The world embraced John - captivated by each new release, including 14 gold albums and 8 platinum albums in the U.S as well as numerous gold and platinum sales overseas.
All of this emerged as a reflection of John’s personal growth and artistic evolution. By his third album in 1970, John’s social and political leanings were defined more clearly. John was one of the first artists to share an environmental message through his music, beginning with the song “Whose Garden Was This?”. This was the first in a long line of songs that he wrote about the environment. .
Fans responded to his environmental and humanitarian messages, heartfelt urgings towards the earth, peace, and compassion that were consistently communicated in a gentle manner on his records and at live performances.
His passion to help create a global community paved the way for ventures into new musical and geographic territories. In 1985 he was invited by the Soviet Union of Composers to perform in their country, inspiring the internationally acclaimed song “Let Us Begin (What Are We Making Weapons For?)”, which was featured on John’s 25th album “One World”.

A separate and unique version of the song was recorded in Moscow as a duet with the well-known Soviet singer Alexandre Gradsky. That recording was the first time a Soviet artist was allowed to perform on a record with a major American singer. The powerful video of “Let Us Begin” moved viewers around the world.
“I thought that I might be able to do something to further the cause of East/West understanding. (This) seemed like a good time to see the face behind all the propaganda. The Russians say that the first swallow of spring won’t make the weather for the whole season, but it can mark the turn toward a warmer climate. I tried to be that swallow.”
The success of his visit paved the way for a concert tour of the USSR in 1986.
