1974- John Denver - First TV special, "The John Denver Show"

See Notes below. Archival video of John's first tv special with guests George Gobel, David Carradine, Lily Tomlin, and James Whitmore (as Will Rogers), along with original band members and Liberty, as well as Bill and Taffy Danoff. Filled with funny skits, musical performances, and a strong environmental message.
*Copyright notes:
SME (Sony Music Entertainment) blocks all use of video and audio on the first song, "A Song's Best Friend", it's actually Rocky Mountain High, along with Country Roads and Sunshine. Starwood in Aspen is muted.
BUT, that doesn't prevent you from enjoying the show's content, while admiring John's dancing and storytelling abilities and comedic timing.

    An old recording, but beautiful. The world is a lesser place without John Denver.

    Always loved John. Was devastated when he died. Such a great talent and we were blessed to see him in concert many times. Listened to his music constantly. May the Lord keep you in peace, John❤️🙏🏻✝️

    Growing up in Colorado in the '70's John Denver was our state mascot. What a beautiful soul and a unrivaled songwriter and singer. We miss you, John.

    I grew up in Colorado Springs, and I agree. John Denver made us all proud to be Coloradans.

    John Denver claimed the mid-cities of Dallas-Fort Worth as his "hometown." He used to come back to Arlington, Texas once a year to play golf with a few of his old high school friends. That's pretty cool staying in touch for so long with a few old high school nobody buddies.

    Another gem in the hundreds of John Denver videos. Comments by Bob Hope, Johnny Carson, John’s dad, with David Carradine and Lily Tomlin.

    Lily was so cute and only one alive left of this show. RIP David Carradine, autoerotic asphyxiation wasn't worth it. He was a great actor. John had great comedy chops. Too bad he took that experimental flight.

    I think they should have elaborated more on the buddist monk costume scene. Could of been really funny. Hawk and the Eagle song is one of my very favorites.

    So, John was lured to Hollywood to do a few of these specials thanks to ABC.
