The Wildlife Concert
This is a very good concert. This was a 1995 special just a couple years for Denver's death. It has many of his traditional favorites, and many songs dealing with the environment and wildlife. It was a very fun concert. It has "Country Roads," "Back Home Again," "Rocky Mountain High," "Shanghai Breezes," "Annie's Song," "Calypso," "Leaving on a Jet Plan" and "Goodbye Again." John Denver surprises with a Blues song and a rock and roll song. There are a couple of songs with focus on Denver's mortality. "Poems Prayers and Promises" explores mortality, and having friends. "Falling out of Love" focuses on relationships, particularly when they end.
This is a great musical collection. There is different percussion, flute, saxophone, sting quartet, keyboard and guitar. Denver plays some songs almost solo and others have the full complement.
Denver also talks a lot about his causes and beliefs, particularly with regards to caring for the planet and animals.
