I’m not sure if I’ve shared this photo before. I have a handful of photos from this 1971 John Denver concert in Charleston, West Virginia. His song “Country Roads” was on its way to becoming a hit. He was performing from the riverboat. Sadly he is not visible in any of the pics from that afternoon. The photo has my mama , sister and I in it. I truly enjoyed his music over the years.

I'm sure that was a really enjoyable concert. Another nice memory for you. And a free concert! You don't get that too often.

That's very cool. Very unusual to be performing from a riverboat.

That must have been really neat. Sis was a huge JD fan, and always had his music on

The late John Denver was one of my favorite artists of all time.
