Product Description
Denver sings rocky mountain high and other favorites in this acclaimed benefit performance. Studio: Sony Music Release Date: 09/10/2002 Starring: John Denver Run time: 120 minutes Rating: Nr

Self-professed "singer of the American West" John Denver shines in this heartfelt, 1995 live concert to benefit the Wildlife Conservation Society. Favorite songs such as "Rocky Mountain High," "Wild Montana Skies," and "Fly Away" are moving and gain fresh perspective from brief comments by Denver. Lesser-known songs like "Eagles and Horses" and "You Say the Battle Is Over" celebrate the spirit of animals and nature while underlining the importance of preservation. Succinct interview clips express Denver's commitment to nature: exploring man's basic hunger for the wild, the dichotomy between the uncultivated and the city, and the power of the individual to effect preservation and change. Striking though brief footage of wild animals like horses, eagles, penguins, and elephants in their natural habitats serve as bookends to the presentation. The Wildlife Concert is a reflective and moving musical celebration of the American West. --Tami Horiuchi

Great Concert! by JD Fan (Colorado) 5 Stars
September 20, 2009
This was a fantastic production recorded at a soundstage in New York City in 1995. Well produced, it sounds wonderful and John was in great form. However, this was from 1995 so it was from later in John's life. I just ordered the new 5 DVD box set called "Around the World Live", which contains concerts dating back to 1977 - from the prime of his career.

Long Live John Denver by Thomas Lockyer (Los Angeles) 5 Stars

I love this DVD. While I am not a huge fan of John Denver's, I have so appreciated his music, talent and his spirit over the years. This DVD was really impressive-- and I think it really showed us the John Denver of his later years. My absolute favorite song on this DVD is "Eagles and Horses"--- it's so amazingly beautiful and he sings it effortlessly and magically. He was a great talent-- with a beautiful voice -- and a unique style and presence--- He made a lot of people very very happy--- as he as done for me.

What a Joy ! by Lyna Sabell (Victoria Australia) 5 Stars

What can you say that everyone else has said. When I received the DVD I thought to myself, I'll just put it on, I probably won't watch all of it,I might watch a bit now and another bit later in the week, well let me tell you, I was enthralled, I could not move away for the DVD. It was briliant, his voice is a gift to the world. I read some of the reviews and I was impressed enough to buy it. I have always loved John Denver, I never really listened properly to his words and their meaning behind every song he sings. He is truly inspirational, I found him to be gentle, genuine, humble and most importantly he loved his audience, he loved what he did, and gave of himself totally. I have had a casette tape of his for over 30 years, when I saw that I could see him on a DVD, I jumped at the chance. I am so sorry that he left us so early in the piece, for what he did for humanity and for conservation, I pray that he and Steve Erwin exchange notes up there, for they were both humanatarian leaders both loved and truly missed. Have a wonderful day ! Lyna (Safewaters) Victoria Australia

"A tribute that's as tender as one of his ballads." The Minneapolis Star Tribune

He soared higher than the Rockies.

John Denver achieved fame, fortune and acclaim for his soaring music, but his sunny personality masked private pain and dark secrets that his celebrity could never heal. His relationship with his father was as challenging as the mountains he sang about. The sweetness of his love songs disguised the turbulence in his marriage and as musical tastes changed, he found...
