And Granada says it is unlikely to cast a big-name actor to portray Denver in a TV-movie based on the singer's autobiography, "Take Me Home", and targeted for a spring or fall '99 airdate. "Casting-wise, we'll probably go with an unknown," said Granada executive producer Robert Rovner. "We might do one of those national talent searches and then cast a known star as [Denver's first wife] Annie for the female lead. John was such a distinctive personality that to cast a well-known actor may not be the way to go. "Granada, working with Annie Martell Denver, has snagged the rights to most of John Denver's music catalog -- meaning the actor required to portray Denver will not be required to sing, Rovner said. "With John's music and his voice, to make a movie and not to use that...would be a waste," Rovner said. Co-executive producer Jon Cowan said the movie will focus on Denver's first marriage to Annie, for whom he wrote, "Annie's Song". "We see this as a love story about a man who defined a generation with his music and was able to touch the world with his songs," Cowan said. "This won't be about a man who dies tragically; by the end of his life, John had found himself and his career was beginning to surge again."Denver, married twice, rocketed to international stardom in the 70's with a string of best-selling hits ("Annie's Song", "Rocky Mountain High", "Sunshine On My Shoulders", "Thank God I'm A Country Boy"), made a hit movie ("Oh, God!" with George Burns) and hosted 20 TV specials. After the hits stopped, Denver battled a drinking problem and was arrested twice for drunk driving. "We'll probably take a small portion of the movie somewhere to cover his alcohol problems, but that's only a small portion of the story," Rovner said. "We think we'll show snippets of his life as a youth but we'll focus primarily on John's rise to fame. "One of the things that's so nice about this movie is that his music is, in essence, the story of his life. "Denver, born Henry John Deutschendorf, Jr., was flying an experimental plane last October when he lost control and plummeted to his death. = = = = = = John Denver Museum Proposed By John Colson Aspen Times Staff Writer A local woman wants the city, or somebody, to create a museum in Aspen to honor the late John Denver. "It would be the ideal place" for such a facility, said Judy Lynn, noting that the late singer's home in the exclusive Starwood subdivision has yet to be sold and contains a number of articles she feels would be well-suited to a museum. Saying that she was a friend of Denver's before he died in a plane crash off the coast of California last October, Lynn said she has been to his house recently and was struck by the presence of so much memorabilia. She said the items that might be appropriate for a John Denver museum might include clothing, statuary, awards and records, as well as memorabilia from concerts. "I think so many people would love to see these things," she told the City Council at the group's regular "brown bag lunch" meeting on Monday. She said she is afraid that the house may sell soon, and that the contents would be auctioned off or otherwise put "up for grabs for everybody." Although the council members did not seem disposed toward direct involvement in creating such a museum, they offered their encouragement. "There has been a lot of talk, I've heard a lot of talk about a museum," noted Mayor John Bennett. But, he added, normally the city relies on citizen activists to actually be the creative forces in such matters, and the city's involvement is usually indirect. Lynn said at least one of Denver's relatives has expressed interest in her idea, and eagerly accepted the suggestion that she talk to the Aspen Historical Society and Denver's longtime friend, Tom Crum. "I think it would just be a tragedy for these things to go by the wayside," she concluded, and indicated she would continue to explore the idea and get back to the city. The late singer's home in Starwood has yet to be sold and contains a number of articles Lynn feels would be well-suited to a museum. * * * JOHN DENVER MEMORIAL EVENTS....in ASPEN, COLORADO From: Susan Moyer (WolfPup) I write this as I am on the plane taking me further and further from John's beloved rocky cathedrals and the beautiful city of Aspen. The plane is at 33,000 feet and the outside temperature is 46 degrees below zero. As I watch the clouds change colors from orange to pink to purple with the setting sun, I try to gather my thoughts of the whirlwind weekend. Words can hardly describe how fantastic it was. Saying that it was purely magical comes closest. From the family dinner Friday night to the Towers buffet dinner Tuesday night - it was incredible. Some of us literally took a "road trip" over to Glenwood Springs to meet Eileen at the bus station. John blessed us by giving us the most beautiful weather for Colorado this time of year - sunny skies, warm days, cool nights. The low of the weekend was reflecting on the loss of John but being able to share that with so many others was one of the highs. There are so many special moments that it would take forever to mention them all. I do want to share a few. First, I want to thank my Mama (as I affectionately call Yellowstone Wolf) for letting me tag along with her and Manuel all weekend. Also, a great big THANK YOU to Rory for giving us this time together. Taking part in the highway clean-up Saturday morning filled me immense satisfaction. To be doing something that John himself would have done and in the place he called home was Far Out. Enjoying the beauty of the mountains while picking up trash - I felt John with us. The Sunday Photo Walk offered another special moment. Wolf and I hiked a little further up the trail after the walk was completed. We sat down on a rock beside the trail and were quietly chatting when we realized we were listening to a special John concert of our own. A stream was babbling and rushing below us, the wind was rustling the leaves in the aspen and pine trees above us - we closed our eyes and enjoyed the simple things. The Towers dinner Tuesday night was great. Hearing Eric and Michael share their stories of John, watching the fantastic magical skills of Eric, and sharing the moment with the others was so very precious. Even getting lost in Snowmass afterwards was worthwhile. I would not change anything about that evening. Love, your sis, WP. Susan Moyer = = = = = = = = = = From: Marcelle Orswell I got home last night but was WAY too tired and emotional to do anything but be with some close friends. You see, leaving Aspen was the most difficult thing. If my daughters weren't here, I don't think I would have come back. What can I say about this weekend? Well get ready folks...this will be a novel! Everything was so wonderful. Emotions ran up and down like a rollercoaster all weekend. From meeting up with people at The Cantina on Friday night through saying goodbye to Raeme at the airport in Denver it was just one heart connecting with another all weekend. I think the most appropriate song for the weekend that was not John's was Val Cooper's song "Connecting Hearts" that many got to hear at some of the events. We got to see for ourselves a good portion of that One World Family Tree and just how beautiful it is! Some of the highlights for me: The photowalk with Dreux was a blast, he's a great instructor and a fun person. The area was beautiful and it was a great way to have a chance to chat with so many people. Anarosa stole the show. What a fun gal she is. I'm so glad we got the chance to meet her. After we left Difficult Campground, a small group of us went to Maroon Bells - Paul Swanton, Nancy Jurka, Miriam Gross, Maureen Stephany, Melissa Blake, Kim Bailey and myself. We had a picnic lunch and then Paul took out his guitar and started to sing. As we sat there other members of the Family joined us. We had a great jam session going there. I was thrilled that my friend Val Cooper shared some of her songs and Frank DeLaMarre shared his. It was a magical day. People just walking by joined us to listen - people that weren't connected to us, weren't necessarily fans, people just there for the day...At one point I bet there were about 50 people there all listening to us sing John's songs. I'll never forget that moment as long as I live. The concert at the Wheeler Opera House that night was absolutely spectacular. The music was FAR OUT! Seeing many of the older and newer members of John's band performing together was such a treat. Jon Summers was an absolute riot. And seeing Bill Danoff singing was great too. The most exciting thing that happened to me that night was that one of my dreams became a reality. I had the opportunity to speak with Annie. She is as warm and wonderful as I always thought she would be. She was very open with me too. She shared with me how difficult all of this was on her and how much she missed John. She thanked me for organizing IAT in John's memory. It was a memory I will cherish forever. I also spoke with Tom Crum that night. He told me that I am doing exactly what John wants me to be doing. That really meant a lot to me. I told him that "Journey to Center" has helped me this past year with everything that I have been going through with the divorce and my children. He gave me a really great hug. What a fantastic guy he is. Meeting up with so many people from this page at the Limelight was so much fun. Being with my brothers and sisters was such fun. Those of you at home were definitely with us in spirit that night. I spent most of Sunday helping Pete and Kim Baker at the "Campfire Event". Again, it was wonderful connecting with so many people. John would have loved that event. It was so perfect. Everyone sharing memories, poems, songs, whatever they wanted to. Hearing memories from people like "Disney Bob" Radock and Max Langstaff was so heartwarming. What nice people John was connected to. I may be biased since Pete and Kim are some of my very dearest friends, but I think they did a fantastic job and deserve a round of applause for what they put together for all of us. Monday was an absolutely crazy day. But certainly worth the craziness. In the morning we got ready and went to the Jerome. Boy was it mobbed! I got a chance to meet some people I had yet to meet while waiting to be seated. That was a lot of fun. While waiting, I had the opportunity to talk to Jim Horn. He is SUCH a nice guy. Once inside, I had the chance to talk with John's Mom for a bit. What an absolutely classy lady! She thanked me for IAT and when I thanked her for letting us be a part of the weekend she said to me "But you are a part of our family too you know. All of you are." That touched me so deeply. She said that John had made her strong that day and that she wasn't going to cry. I told her that was good because we were going to do that for her. She gave me a hug and thanked me for helping her understand how much John was loved. During the event itself, Dreux did an absolutely fantastic job as MC. After leaving the Jerome, I ran around like a maniac for the next few hours getting the IAT event ready. But it was all worth it. The IAT event was an absolute dream come true for me. The performers were all great as were the speakers. Ken Davies was great. Well, everyone - let's do it again next year! It was FAR OUT! Peace to you all. Marcelle = = = = = = = = = From: Carole Nordgren I got home from Aspen last night so inspired and blessed. I went there "ticketless" and by some stroke of luck (?) my party of 3 was at the right time at the right place and got into the Wheeler House for the Musical Tribute to JD. I had tears of joy just being there and never stopped being choked with emotion during the wonderful performance. We met so many wonderful people at the functions we did attend (the road cleanup along I-70, the church service at the beautiful Difficult Campground with the river flowing behind us and the golden aspens leaves quaking around us, the dedication service, the family campfire. So much more was going on today and I wish I were still there, but I've been filled with joy today....playing his music, walking in our beautiful mountains west of Boulder, and as Tom Crum said at the memorial last year.....very very sad he died, but so very very happy he lived! Carole Nordgren = = = = = = = = = From: Sherri Traylor I just got back last night from 24hrs in ASPEN, CO. I got to go at the last minute. Even though I didn't have tickets for Rory's luncheon at the Jerome, I saw the items at the silent auction, and talked to several people. I was privileged to get to go to Windstar for the Meadowlands dedication. Bette and Evelyn did a great job getting that together. It is so wonderful to know that that area will be kept wild and free from development. It seems that most of the Roaring Fork River valley has been developed from Glenwood Springs to Aspen. Then a great supper at Lucci's and then I wondered over to the Hearts in Harmony dinner. They told me to go on in-so I did. Chis Westfall was just getting up to sing. And boy did he sing! For almost 2 1/2 hrs. It was like being at a JD concert again. I had to keep reminding myself that it was not JD on the stage. I had the privilege of meeting John Summers and I told him how my children loved "Grandma's Feather Bed" and "Thank God I'm a Country Boy" and thanked him for writing such great songs. He was extremely personable. I got to meet my net friend that I've had for almost a year. (John is still bringing people together) And I was able to meet and put faces to many of the wonderful people out in cyberland. The Maroon Bells were wonderful, the aspens were gold and just breath taking. I finally found out where Starwood is, I had never tried to find it in all those other trips to Aspen over the years. (Oh how I wanted to, but didn't want to bother people). The views from up there are just magnificent! It was so neat to see others that have the same feelings about John and his music that I have had for 24 years. (For years I thought I was the only one that could love the music and the man as much as I did.) I missed the Wheeler concert but several people said it was so emotional and that you could feel John's presence. I'm so glad I decided to go to Aspen! It made all the difference. "I live here in the mountains I am free- I AM FREE!" That just about sums up how I feel. I'm so glad John lived and gave us the music, the expression, the vision, and the mission. Take Care. Sherri Traylor JOHN DENVER MEMORIAL EVENTS.....PACIFIC GROVE, CALIFORNIA * PHOTOS of the JD events in Pacific Grove can be found at http://www.garlic.com/~andrews From: Carol Campisi Today was so full, it's hard to even begin. First I have to say I have never met so many special people at one time. Memories of friendships I will keep a long time. Bill Young is not only a fabulous singer/guitar player of JD songs, but is one of the nicest people I've ever met. He sang Annie's Song tonight and introduced us all to his beautiful fiancee! That was one special event. Memorials were all around Asilomar and Ocean View Blvd. A beautiful piece of driftwood with John's name carved in it, candles lit by it and flowers and pictures. A circle was formed around 5pm and candles were lit at the same time as in Aspen in John's memory. But the most outstanding event that took place was shortly thereafter, 4 Long EZ planes flew above the area creating silence among the crowd. One plane left the other 3 and flew straight up, as if going to heaven. I can't explain what we all felt at that moment. It was a moment captured that will stay with a lot of us for a long time. Carol Campisi = = = = = = = = October 12, 1998 by John Rowe There we were gathered 'round Assembled on the shore A year gone by we didn't know What feelings were in store How can you know until you've been To the place where death began That your heart would sink to newer depths As you stood upon the sand The ocean breaking on the rocks The seagulls flying high This is the place where time stood still And caused the world to cry When it happened no one knew Just how they'd carry on We prayed for solace of our souls Where grief would fall upon Music playing people singing To celebrate as One The memory of a special man Shining brightly as the sun There was sadness but also gladness As the latter reigned supreme For the singer may be silent But he still flies on the Wings of a Dream In time the grieving will abate As the world wakes up each day To remember John who lost his life Off the shores of Monterey October 12, 1998 - John V. Rowe West Hills, CA USA = == = = = = = = = From: Barbara Rhoads Got back from Pacific Grove last night and I'm very grateful that I was able to attend the events there. The weather was beautiful, the people were friendly, the news coverage was excellent. I especially appreciated the chance to go to the crash scene on Saturday night with just a few people and have a private moment to remember and grieve. Today I am sore and stiff from the beach cleanup but enjoyed every minutes of the time spent there. Today I went into the back yard at 5:28 and a single plane with long wings flew over (where I live is just a few blocks from where John picked up his Long EZ for his flight to Monterey). I don't know much about planes, but seeing this plane fly over at that time gave me a feeling that somehow John is telling us he is soaring "up there" and is singing with the angels. = = = = = = = = From: Dick Gaskill The best part of being in PG last weekend was meeting so many of you wonderful people that I have been talking to via email over the last year. It was really nice to be able to put faces and voices with the names. I'll bet JD never thought he'd start a group like us. Never saw so much love in one place at the same time. Far Out. Hey, did anybody measure how tall the tree was when we planted it? I'd like to see how much it's grown when we go back next year. We ARE going back next year, right? Well, I am for sure. And the next and the next... I wonder how much bigger the group will be then. We were a lot larger this year than the first year. Love gets around, I think. And maybe, just maybe, by next year PG will reconsider a plaque, even a little one, maybe on the rock by the tree. Peace to you all. And remember, as long as we remember him, John will never die. Dick Gaskill ================================================== Reviews of "Forever John" - new JD album on CD ================================================== From: Jeroen Holthuijsen The Netherlands Subject: "Forever John" - NEW John Denver CD with PREVIOUSLY UNRELEASED material on it... The overall sound quality is excellent! This CD contains many of the songs John had recorded for a 1980 album, which RCA didn't want to release. Tracks: "On the Wings of an Eagle" (from Rocky Mountain Reunion), "River" (a great song with a wonderful orchestral arrangement.) "Rusty Green" (recorded in 1969; sounds a bit mystic to me), "Rita Ballou" (upbeat country song), "Four Strong Winds" (a song which has been recorded by the Mitchell Trio, but this is a late seventies JD version), "No One" (a long acoustic song, same style as some of the songs on PPP; recorded in that period as well), "Dance Little Jean" (I've been listening to this one all weekend... it gives me such joy, "High Wind Blowing" (a soft slow country ballad), "It's a Sin to Tell a Lie" (this song needs no introduction of course), "Mr. Bojangles" (NOT the version from Whose Garden... this was recorded in 1969 and I think this rendition is better than the later one), "Nobody Can Take My Dreams From Me" (if a country-rock genre existed, this song would have to be classified as such. My least favorite song) "The Game Is Over" (again, NOT the version you know. I like this one better as well. He puts more feeling into it). It's really worth the money! So go out and BUY IT! Peace, Jeroen Holthuijsen - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Amazon.com: A music fan from Philadelphia 10/1/98 "A wonderful collection from a great artist. Though he died nearly a year ago, John Denver and his music will remain alive forever. This collection of previously unreleased music from RCA's vaults is a treasure. My favorite song on the album is "Four Strong Winds" a wonderful rendition of the class. Thank you John for such a treasure. Keep them coming, RCA! ============================== P O E T R Y C O R N E R ============================== Celebrate this Nature's Son by Mandy Arnold With voices joined together our hearts all beat as one. United by the singer our journey has begun. And now upon his passing awareness shall we bring May each and every child learn the message he did sing. Preserving animals and nature, and the beauty that they bring. To saving starving children are some things that he did sing. But it all goes beyond that, for everyone must help. We all must work together, put differences on the shelf. So every year we'll join as one, to celebrate this nature's son. And carry on his work and love, so John can smile at us from above. -- Mandy Arnold 10/14/98 - - - - - - - - THE WIND IS STILL HIS SONG Words & Music: Breeze Bryson He sailed into the sunset on a sunny afternoon, soaring like a bird up in the sky, then he dove into the ocean, joined the dolphins and the whales. Not one sea creature asked him why! For they knew the wind was still his song the sun still was his shining star! And the sleepy, blue ocean still filled up his senses As his music still fills us, near and far! His Rocky Mountains are still sublime. In Shanghai, his breezes still blow. In India, it's still about time. And lovers dance in Alaska's snow. John's spirit will be with us as the years keep passing by. We will hear his words and sing his songs. Together we'll work for all the causes he stood for. His memory will always keep us strong! For we know the wind is still his song, the sun still is his shining star, And the sleepy blue ocean still fills up his senses As his music fills our world, near and far!
