Me Denver’s most well known outing, a nice listen all the way through featuring the universally known ‘country roads take me home’
-
Edited 3 years agoI was happy to hear this LP sounded open and balanced. John Denver's vocals are really enjoyable on this album. Some excellent tracks too. So happy to have this LP in my collection. Very good pressing.
*Spinning on a Fluance RT82 turntable, to a Fluance PA10 pre-amp, to Sony STRDH190 2-CH receiver, with Fluance "signature" loud speakers.
