John Denver - Very Special Interview with Ray Martin (1989) [1/5]

[DragonReborn986]

Denver was cremated with the 1910 Gibson guitar given to him by his grandmother which had inspired much of his career....

about 5 years after his death, the IRS claimed that Denvers estates were worth nearly double what he had reported around the time of his death. The last thing I could find on this said that johns children (who are now close to 30 years old) were fighting it, but I dont know if they won or what happened?

I watch so many video's of John & stop & enlarged prints of his life . Read his home had taxes due after his death ,it was lost. I hope after that was written, it was saved .

I read his guitar was burned with him, I hope it was not the one his grandmother gave him .They said he had many .I pray ,not his first one.I really loved John's singing & his outgoing personally & he was a great speaker & a love of animals to be saved .Cared for Earth Day. He wanted to travel to the moon, John never did

It's really something to hear him talk of the Exxon Valdez oil spill. Can you imagine what he would think of the Gulf's oil spill?Also I think he would have wrote a song about 9-11 & would be very disappointed in the end of NASA's shuttle program. I miss him. Wonderful man, environmentalist, humanitarian...

@sedona05 Paul Watson tried to hel p clean up the oil spill, along with sea shepherd. But the oil company told him they have it under control---really? If we all used Ellis water, macrobiotics etc. on the ocean, and we all worked together, we could really help clean up the oceans better. I wish the oil company would realize that they don't own the ocean. It is one thing if they were really put their heart into cleaning it up; but their efforts are almost nonexistent. It is all of our ocean.

John looks so very happy. Sad to know things didnot work out with his marriage.

John was a tall & handsome man . I know she wishes things were different too in this day & time. Lost his dream home & burned his grandmothers guitar . Hurts my heart very much . Thanks for this share .

Love all the interviews that John did with Ray Martin because he was always so open and honest, from his "I love Cassie" to "I hate Cassie" plus the Ray Martin shows always showcased John's other

real loves.
