I love this early JOHN DENVER.... John died in the Pacific coast not far from my home. Always wanted to meet him, talk to him.... maybe in Gods Heaven.

Love this song that satirizes the American funeral industry and traditions. Some folks on the right had a fit at the time, but they have no sense of humor.

I love John Denver, but Tom Paxton's version is much better. (As it should be of course, since he wrote it.)

This is a funny little song. What is with this crowd? Are they deaf, or just waiting to be told to laugh, like a bunch of zombies?

Do you have the rest of this clip? It's a gas......with Carson and John discussing the song.

Hi Michael. You say you have some clips of John hosting the Tonight Show. I remember one show from the I think 1977 where John played "To The Wild Country". I was wondering if you had that clip. It was a show where John was a guest of John Carson's and he wasn't the actual host. That was the first time I heard "To The Wild Country" and was instantly in love with the song. Thanks!

Sorry George, I don't think I have a clip with JD singing To the Wild Country. If I do find it I will certainly post it. Miost of my clips are from the early 1970s. I always liked To the Wild Country. I have posted a clip from Alaska: American Child where that song is sung. Have you seen it?
