Product Details

Denver's songwriting carried an earnestness that a lot of rock critics dismissed but audiences never did, and his catalog has proven remarkably durable across generations of Americana and folk-influenced artists. The breadth of contributors here reflects just how wide his reach extended, from jam-scene staples to roots-leaning pop, all finding something genuine in songs built around open spaces, longing, and the natural world.


15 years after his death and 40 years after the release of his widely beloved song 'Rocky Mountain High,' ATO Records celebrates John Denver's life and music with The Music Is You: A Tribute to John Denver. The album features covers of Denver's most popular songs by a diverse group of artists including Dave Matthews, My Morning Jacket, Train, Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros and many others.. A portion of the proceeds will be donated to The Wilderness Society in John's name.
