There were many who made their way towards Colorado after listening to Denver's iconic songs for his home state. G. Brown, curator of the Colorado Music Hall of Fame declared that John Denver is the only artist to represent Colorado. Denver was one of the very one of the first Hall of Fame inductee in the year 2011. The state of Colorado is a popular symbol for all people. While traveling I've had the pleasure of meeting people who are from New Zealand or the other side. If you say that you're from Colorado the first words they say are"Oh John Denver. Brown declared. Take Me Home Country Roads was one of Denver's biggest solo hit after appearing in small folk groups. It was written by and recorded by Bill Danoff. Danoff was the one who wrote the song to imitate the style of Johnny Cash, but Denver could hear an early version of the song and realized it would eventually become a Top 10 hit. The artist recorded the song only a few days afterward when he performed it in front of an enthusiastic audience who were in Washington D.C.
