His father, the much-loved patriarch of his family asked him again and again to do a tribute album. With his pop's health on the decline and the 20th anniversary of the legend's passing, Jason knew there was no better time for this album. A labour of love, the album is packed with songs that made John Denver a household name including "Annie's Song", "Sunshine On My Shoulders" and the first single "Take Me Home Country Road". Jason's exceptional vocals shine on the album perfectly capturing the soul of Denver's music, "I've put my own touch on each track, but kept true to the uniqueness of John's creativity." One of the best-selling artists of the 70s, John Denver was more than just a country music singer. He was outspoken on politics, an environmentalist and a humanitarian. Rather than putting the big smoke on a pedestal, Denver praised the virtues of country living, one most Australian country music fans can connect with. Writing passionately about the world around him and the simple joys of life, Denver's timeless music resonated with millions of people from popular artists who have covered his music to a young, impressionable boy in country New South Wales. Enter your details below and get ready for Jason to take you home down country roads! Source: https://www.7bu.com.au/win/75650-cd-of-the-week-jason-owen-sings-john-denver Win © 7BU |
