While traveling I've had the pleasure of meeting people from New Zealand or the other side. If you tell them that you're from Colorado, the first words they'll say is"Oh John Denver. Brown declared. Take Me Home Country Roads was Denver's top 10 solo hit after appearing with a small group of folk musicians. It was written, co-written and produced by Bill Danoff. Danoff originally wrote it by putting Johnny Cash's song in his the back of his mind, however Denver realized from the first time he heard earlier versions that the track would become a major hit. The artist recorded the song just a few days later when he performed it in front of an enthusiastic audience in Washington D.C.
