Summary: Far Out !!!
Review: A must for any true John fan. Although I was hoping he'd have sung "This Old Guitar" and "My Sweet Lady" in that concert too !!
But still a lifetime thing to have. "Darcy Farrow" and "I guess he'd rather be in colorado" were my favorite, true folkies. BUY THIS DVD!!!

Summary: Great music but little wildlife!
Review: As usual, John Denver delivers superb performances of great music! However, there is not the wildlife footage that one might expect. Great video if you're a huge fan!

Summary: Superb Recollection Of An Outstanding Human Being!
Review: For those of us who grew up with him, watching John Denver so suddenly emerge onto the national stage as the huge talent he was is a memory savored and protected in these harsher times. I remember driving to graduate classes and hearing "Annie's Song" for the first time. it was quite an experience. I remember listening to "Rocky Mountain High" and how it affected me in terms of my growing appreciation for wild nature and the need for conservation. More than anything else, for me John still symbolizes that better part of our common human nature that those of us ragged,and hopefully "gracefully aging" counterculturists still associate with what personal enlightment and true education can do to transform this into a finer and more sustainable planet. Thus, this wonderful set of DVD (and also available CD recordings) that comprise the entire "Wildlife Concert" offering is a wonderous gift that reminds of of the immense range of talents and sensitivities he shared with us in his brief time on earth.
Of course, you can rest assured that all of his famous songs are here, as well as a number of newer and less well known works, which are included as well. In the end, one is simply amazed at the freshness and novelty he is able to bring to bear in his presentation of many of the offerings here, in the wonderful way in which he performs some of these songs, singing lyrics he had sung thousands of times but seeming just as fresh and new as the first times he performed them. Like many artists, he doesn't necessarily stick to the familiar sound of the recorded version, and while that might annoy a few patrons who prefer the overly-familiar stamped-out record version, for me it is an indication of his great artistic prowess to able to do so this convincingly after all this time, and to do so with such aplomb, enthusiasm, and flavor. The comforting thing to understand is that at the time he had the concert, close to the time he died in the tragic airplane accident that abruptly ended his life, he seemed at the top of his form, regaining lost popularity, and ready to record new works in progress. This is a wonderful DVD, and one I recommend to all John Denver fans. Enjoy!

Summary: Sound Quality
Review: I feel that it did not capture the full richness of John Denver that you would find in a real concert from an arena. This was done on a sound stage and it was closer to an album sound rather than the fullnes of one of his concerts. Instead of putting some of the editorial "stuff" in it a few more songs would have been better.

Summary: How do you say thanks
Review: I got this DVD and listened to it twice the first night. John helps me to appreciate the world around me and this DVD is a celebration of just that. I wish I could express my profound enjoyment of this work. The sound is stunning. The quality outstanding. I will never buy a DVD again that is not 5:1. I feel this piece may have spoiled me. Buy it for an incredible entertainment experience. I promise you will feel good after hearing it.

Summary: A Marvelous Keepsake
Review: I had been oblvious to the music and spirit of John Denver for about 20 years. Then a friend of mine bought this DVD and lent it to me. I played it and was blown away. I immediately got my own copy. I have lent it to others, and everyone has likewise been blown away by it. I have become a confirmed JD fan. A week or so after getting my own copy, I came home from work completely stressed out. I put the concert on, and over the course of the next 2 hours I could actually feel the stress melt away. At the end, I felt great. I was responding not only to the great music, but also to the wonderful spirit and great humanity of John Denver. Some of the songs and interview segments bring tears to the eyes. I found it particulary poignant to listen to him sing the wonderful lyrics to "Poems, Prayers and Promises", while realizing that he is now gone from us. Watch the sheer joy with which he performs "Amazon", which was a new song to me, and has now become one of my favorites. He and the band were really cookin'on this one. The supporting musicians are especially outstanding. A string quartet, James Burton on guitar and especially Jim Horn on wind instruments added immeasurably to the concert. I am saddened that I never got to see John perform. This concert DVD, however, is the next best thing. I only wish ther were another six or eight songs on it. If you loved John Denver, or even if you only kinda liked him, you will love this disc. It was worth every penny. Long live the music and spirit of John Denver!
