Classic Rock Music Monday

The stuff that now passes as "music", particularly rock 'n roll, leaves me cold. So, to start off the week, here's a video of a classic rock artist.

To start off the week we have a cross-over (between country/folk and rock) artist who seemed to be everywhere back in the 1970s, John Denver.

From Wikipedia:

Henry John Deutschendorf Jr. (December 31, 1943 – October 12, 1997), known professionally as John Denver, was an American singer and songwriter. He is known for popularizing acoustic folk music in the 1970s as part of the ongoing singer-songwriter movement of the mid-to-late 20th century. Denver is widely recognized as a cultural icon of the American West.

Interestingly, Denver was born in Roswell, New Mexico.

It was hard to decide on what song to spotlight, so I will post two. One, is his hit "Take Me Home, Country Roads" and the other, with Olivia Newton-John, who passed away from cancer a few months ago, "Fly Away".
