John Denver: 1943-1997
On October 12, John Denver was killed when the experimental plane
he was piloting crashed into the Monterey Bay. His spirit lives on in his songs,
in his contributions to our mother earth, and in the hearts of all of us fortunate
enough to listen.

Japanese CD re-issues of old albums
Almost all of JD's old, out-of-print albums (namely, Rhymes and Reasons,
Whose Garden Was This, Take Me To Tomorrow, Aerie,
Windsong and Spirit) were recently rereleased on CD in Japan, and
may be ordered on-line. See the
June issue of the RMH
Internet Fanclub Newsletter for more info.
P.S.- These 6 CDs may be ordered through
CDEurope for $25
apiece, and various other on-line importers, although some have stopped carrying
them, so you may want to act fast!
Domestic re-issues and new material!
RCA has released Spirit, JD, Rocky Mountain X-Mas,
and, after a fashion, Whose Garden Was This on CD. They have also released a
new CD of 12 previously unreleased performances, including 10
"never-before-heard Denver songs". More info is available
here.

and more info can be found

Stop by and find out how you can help, especially if you live in Colorado.
Recent (?) personal update (1/5/00): I'm still here at my dream job... teaching math at my old alma mater Harvey Mudd College! And now my pages are here with me! 2 1/2 years after I graduated, they finally shut down my old student account at Hopkins (thanks to Lenore Cowen for letting it live there as long as it did!), so my little JD page has a new permanent home here at Mudd. Welcome! As always, feel free to drop me a line any time for any reason.
