John Denver "Around the World Live"

Post by bestseller92 »

For all the JD fans here, there's a new DVD set coming out in October called "Around the World Live". It has video from several different JD concerts from around the world (hence the name) as well as a couple of documentaries. Total running time is nearly 600 minutes, and it's available at Amazon and other places for under $55.

Sounds like a nice set!

The local PBS station occasionally shows a John Denver concert recorded at Red Rocks during fundraising drives. I hope some of that concert is included.

I'm not shilling for Amazon here, but I'll post this link so others can see the DVD details and track listing:

This is a superb DVD set. The video of the Dec. 1977 Austrailia concert alone is worth the cost. A brilliant, energetic performance; JD fairly glows with artistic charisma.

My only question is, why were these performances kept from us for so long??
