Pro Reviews: Essential John Denver
| EXPERT RATING: From AMG Reviews There is no shortage of excellent John Denver compilations, and RCA Legacy's twodisc Essential John Denver collection doesn't disappoint. All of the hits are here ("Rocky Mountain High," "Calypso," "Back Home Again," "Annie's Song," "Perhaps Love" etc.), and the sequencing is linear and concise. Fans looking for a more diminutive yet equally satisfying overview should check out 2005's Definitive AllTime Greatest Hits, but for the discerning listener looking to capture the full scope of the late countrypop great, this rich slab of history will more than suffice. - James Christopher Monger, All Music Guide |

Pros: Excellent balance of greatest hits and lesser-known album tracks.
Cons: Repeats numerous similar compilations.
Denver's run of signature hits made him both one of the 1970s most beloved country-folk singers and one of the decade's most lampooned. His earnest "Far Out!" trademark was at once a echo of the '60s hippie vibe, and a good fit for the mainstream of the '70s. RCA/Legacy celebrates Denver's rich catalog with this 2-CD anthology that spans his biggest pop hits, lower-charting singles, album tracks and a few odds and ends. It's a perfect overview for those who love Denver's hits and want a collection that offers a bit more. Yes, this set reiterates material that's already been reissued many times, but that's the nature of the retail music industry ...
