In a profession that spanned decades, John Denver earned international acclaim as a vocalist, songwriter, acting professional, and environmental activist. Melodies like "Take Me Home, Country Highways", "Rocky Hill High", and "Annie's Songs" have came into the canon of general anthems, but at his start John Denver was a young man with bit more than a fine voice, a electric guitar, and a dream. Growing up in a traditional armed service family, he was not likely to drop out of college and check out Los Angeles, where in fact the music scene was flourishing. Nor was he likely to do well. In Take Me Home, John Denver chronicles the experiences that designed his life, while unraveling the wealthy, inner journey of a shy Midwestern son whose uneasy relationship with popularity has been one of the defining pushes of his first 50 years. With candor and wit, John writes about his child years, the experience of striking L.A. as the '60s roared into full swing, his first breaks, his years with the Mitchell Trio, his first songwriting success with "Leaving on a Jet Plane", and finally a profession that made his a worldwide household name. He also explores his connections with the ladies in his life - specifically his first better half, Annie Martell, and his second better half, Cassandra Delaney - as well as his parents, his children, his companions through his life, and his friends. Honest, insightful and rich in anecdotes that only a natural-born storyteller could notify so well, Take Me Home is a highly charged and exciting audiobook from starting to end. It's like spending a couple of days with a buddy.
