John Denver "Country Road"

John Denver is an American legend. Wrought from the dusty mountain roads of West Virginia, he carved his niche into the Americana folk music scene with songs invoking the feelings of freedom in the face of the natural beauty of his homeland. His three chord harmonies were simple, yet his haunting voice twanged with lyrics that resonated with listeners bringing them to the forest and the streams that are thematic to his music. This Friday, enjoy "Thank God I'm A Country Boy" as you stomp your feet at the ho' down.
