John Denver, a singer-songwriter of Colorado who was a specialist in folk music, has touched the hearts of millions. Henry John Deutschendorf Jr. was born in Roswell, New Mexico. He was enthralled by Colorado and moved to Aspen. A few took the road to Colorado following the Denver's cult anthems to his adopted state. G. Brown of Colorado Music Hall of Fame, the hall's curator of fame, stated: "I don't believe there anyone else who has as much a connection to Colorado in the same way as John Denver." Denver became the initial Hall of Fame inductee in 2011. To many, Denver is the symbol of Colorado. Through my many travels, I've met a lot of individuals who do not hail from Colorado. People will beg, "Oh John Denver!" When they hear you are from Colorado. Brown declared. Take Me Home Country Roads was co-written by Bill Danoff - was Denver's first Top 10 single as a solo artist following a short period in small folk ensembles. Danoff had written the song inspired by Johnny Cash, but Denver was able to hear the song's early versions and was aware that it was going to be one of the Top 10 hits. After performing to an excited audience at Washington D.C., the singer recorded this song.
