This slideshow features three live versions of John Denver's song "Spirit" from early 1994, each sung about a month apart. There are some differences between these three versions.
The last version is the only album version of this song, released on the "Windsong" album.
love hearing a later version. Latest version I heard before this was 77. Thanks

Great to hear the differences in balance, and accompaniment. Thanks for that.
Interesting that there is such variety,. JD would have to be flexible about performing with such varying backing, and sound projection of his own voice.

Beautiful! I have the album version of this song on my iPod, and while walking the other day, I thought to myself it's sad that there aren't more live versions of this song available, the only one being on the 1976 "Live in London" album. I;m thinking he opened some of his shows with this song in 1994. Thanks for posting these rarities!
