Advantages: A Deciation to A Great Artist! Disadvantages: You Decide...
left, the band changed to "Denver, Boise and Johnson" This band ended 1969 when Denver wanted to get his own solo career!
Cover versions of songs by people like Tom Paxton and Jacques Brel failed to consolidate his appeal to the mainstream.
The 1970's saw a massive change, starting in 1971 with his "TakeMeHome Contry Roads." This is a song which I am sure you all have heard:
Almost Heaven, West Virgina, Blue Ridge Mountain, Shanando River, Life is Old there, Older than the Tree's, Younger than the Mountains, Blowing like the Breeze, TakemeHomeCountryRoads, Back to the Place I Belong, West Virgina, Mountain Moma, TakemeHome, now CountryRoads!
With this song Denver really had sucess, it reached No.2 in the U.S.
It was this year that he released his third album, "Poems, Prayers and Promises" this is one I have upstairs ...
Advantages: Great artists, Fantastic recordings Disadvantages: A few good tracks missed this set
teenagers of my age were listening to during the 80s. But no matter what i listened to i always prefered my Everlys Brothers tape. As time went on and i began to buy my own records i tended to by singles for chart music but the Albums tended to be Rock 'n' roll and quite a collection of the Everlys.
Other artists began to take my interest that were not modern and not Rock 'n' Roll. These were artists like Dolly Parton, Kenny Rogers, JohnDenver or Johnny Cash.
So my biggest interest in Rock 'n' Roll was my early experience with the Everlys but my taste in music appeared to being pulled more and more towards Country. It took me a few years to realise that the biggest part of the Everlys music was in fact country based, this became clear as my Everlys collection grew.
It is plain to see that the Everlys were my favorite all time artist ...
Advantages: Neat design, good screen and comprehensive maps Disadvantages: I'll have to buy another in a couple of years.
TomTom 720T
SatNav devices remind me a little of mobile phones in the early nineties. They are a little bit pricey, a little bit niche and until recently the preserve of gadget freaks and those who drive for a living.
These days they are a lot more prolific and I can foresee a time when they will be just as ubiquitous as mobile phones and everyone with a car will have one, and no doubt more than one if they have more than one car in the house.
This is my second SatNav device and I can't imagine ever not having one now. They keep getting better and I rarely consult the A - Z now except to get the broadest idea of where I'm going and how to get there. I've become accustomed to using it even for relatively short journeys to places I've been many times and have regularly been taken on routes I hadn't been aware of in the past ...
