Ted Vigil is the real deal. He also does a very authentic John Denver tribute.

We were waiting for the same plane out of Minneapolis-St. Paul and he agreed to let me tape him rehearsing in the airport.

For those who (like me) took great delight in criticizing Mr. "Sunshine-on-my shoulder" during the 70s; Ted Vigil may change your mind.

He's got a YouTube channel now - visit http://www.youtube.com/user/TedVigilFanClub

Or send him good wishes in an e-mail - teddenver@hotmail.com

  • The G and C chords that Ted is playing, are they a modification? I only ask as someone just starting to learn guitar.

  • @h2oly - According to Ted, "The chords are G and then then C/G then D."

    You can contact him yourself directly at teddenver@hotmail.com - I'm sure he'd be happy to hear from somebody who's learning from his video.

  • This is a great tribute. Ted acknowledges the travelers as they pass by him. When you see him in person, you will know he is authentic.

  • Far out!

  • Recently, I have been thinking that John Denver found a way to sing "through" Ted. Kinda metaphysical, but it is possible. John really didn't want to leave this earth, so he figures out a way to come back through someone else. Listen to some of the songs recently sang with Steve Weisberg at Mt Vernon WA and you will see what I mean......Ted's voice changes about 1/3 of the way into the song, changes to John's. Check it out!

  • OMG!

  • hey ted we need you here in grayson county ky iam trying to get a place for you here wish i could just book you here for a night with friends keep up the good work man iam a fan great job

  • very nice tribute

  • I work in a Boot Store in downtown Nashville. Ted came in tonight to look around. He's a super nice guy who is not trying to sound just like Denver. He pays tribute to him. He's fun to be around and he's talented.

  • omg i've been a JD fan since I first heard Country Roads and this guy sounds like he did wow great job
