So sad about Mr. Denver. An avoidable accident cost the world a beautiful soul and voice. May his legacy live on through the work he left us.
In addition to being an exceptional singer, songwriter, and musician, John Denver was considered to be a very competent pilot, holding multiple ratings in many different types of aircraft. His love of flying was probably instilled in him by his father, Lt. Col. Henry John Deutschendorf, an accomplished U.S. Air Force pilot who set multiple speed records in the B-58 Hustler. His love of flight was probably only exceeded by his love for music. I too, have no shame in admitting I enjoyed his work....Thank you for posting this wonderful video!
There is a handwritten letter from Mr. Denver still at my childhood home giving my parents permission to play Rocky Mountain High at my uncle's funeral back in the mid 70's. He had been a park ranger at Mesa Verde National park in Colorado and was killed there in an auto accident. He even called my grandmother to extend his condolences. I was devastated when I learned of his death. Mr. Denver was such a humble and gentle man. He is greatly missed.
Jordan , His ashes were spread over the Rocky Mountains .. I feel that was a proper place for him .. May he Rest In Peace...
I didnot know this. I also plan on spreading my ashes over the Rocky Mountains.
I loved John Denver and the Wildlife Concert! I cried when he died! So young and talented and was turning his life around when he died! Great vlog, Jordan!!
Aww John Denver is still my favorite writer and singer Rest In Peace mr Denver thanks for all the great memories you gave me and my children who grew up hearing all of your music
John Denver brightened the world with his presence. Thanks, Jordan.
I remember when he died I could not even go to work that day, I was devastated...he was a real talent that was under-appreciated in my opinion
I am a BIG Fan of John Denver, AND! Doris Day!!.. I have always said that John Denver was a jewel.. His songs always had such emotion .. Doris Day is a classy Lady!!!.. Love EVERYTHING She stared in, and love Her songs!!.. This was another gift from You to Us.. Thank You!!!
My girlfriend's husband was a part of the recovery team for John Denver's body, while he was in the Coast Guard. The CG provided security for the crash sight. He would NEVER talk about it. Just said..."They recovered his body". What an absolutely beautiful place. Thank you Jordan! 💚
I, heartbreakingly, heard more about this then I wish to know. Be very thankful he didn't talk about it 😭😭😭 But thanks phillie I'm sure John's soul was long gone and that was simply a shell. 1st night on the other side I already have my plans. After seeing loved ones, I can't wait to hear John's new music! And if that's not heaven I don't know what is
Jordan, the most endearing thing about you doing these videos is how respectful you are. Back stories with respect.😊👍
One of my favorite singer song writers. Such beautiful songs that touched my ❤️ and brought tears to my eyes. Thank you Jordan.
I remember the time Doris Day had John Denver on her TV show. It was remarkable how much they looked alike.
What a wonderful dog owner you are. Beautiful to see how much joy you both give each other. The best of friends. Dogs are family. I sure love my dog so seeing you and Jah puts a smile on my face. These vlogs just get better and better!! Thank-you for sharing them with us.
Well said and mirrors my feelings to a T... Thank You Jordan for all that you do/bring to us. It's very much appreciated and well accepted by all who watch your video's. Keep on doing YOU and please show Jah as much as you can in video's...Love that lil guy, he's so adorable...by the way, *~*Happy Birthday*~* JAH (=
I grew up listening to John Denver from the time I was a little kid. 1997 was a horrific year! We lost so many great people, Princess Diana, Chris Farley, Versace, John Denver, my grandpa and my beloved cockatiel Junie to name a few. I LOVE Doris Day, my favorite movie of hers is Move Over Darling!
I loved, loved Doris Day.
Also Jacques Cousteau, whom JD wrote Calypso for and Mother Teresa.
Thanks for the memories. Loved listening to John Denver back in the 70s. He was very talented writer and singer. Oh country road.... RIP friend!!
Jah is having a blast!! And Carmel is an awesome place to be. Loving my mornings with you, Jah and a cup of coffee.
I have my cup of java right now and I am about to push play for I know what will be a wonderful video on John Denver. Loved "Leaving on a Jet Plane"
You deserve more subscribers man. Compared to some of the other guys, you seem to have your research down. Awesome channel :)
I appreciate that
We Appreciate You and ALL that you do for us, Jordan (=
Such a loss and tragedy. Thank you For respectfully memorializing him.
God bless John Denver. What a beautiful soul.
Awe, this was AWESOME. John Denver I love. Still do. I had so many of his LPs, cassette tapes. Annies Song, my favourite. I remember I was driving my late Mother to work one day, many years ago and just as we were about to enter the town there was a hitchhiker thumbing a lift. I passed by. Then as i looked in my rearview mirror, to my disbelief yes, it was John Denver. I was gutted !!!!! Once I had dropped off my Mother at her work I returned along that same road. I had decided that I would stop and chat with him, get his autograph. OH NO. DEVASTATED. He wasn't there. Someone had obviously stopped and gave him a lift. GUTTED !!!!! I read in the newspaper the following week that he was in the UK (Scotland at the time of seeing him) on a hiking holiday. A lot of people didn't believe me but I was right. It was him. I LOVE your vlogs, sooooooooo interesting. 🌺☺🌹😃🌺
I actually got to see John Denver in concert in Lake Tahoe back in the late 70's. It was one of the best concerts I have ever been to! I was a very big fan of his. Thank you for doing a vlog where he died.
sunshine on my shoulders makes me happy....... beautiful John Denver song
Grew up on John Denver music. Love Doris gorgeous and beautiful voice. RIP Doris
Thank you for the John Denver memorial...if that's the word I'm looking for....But thank you all the same. A lot of people just don't get him. Sadly he's been made a joke of since his original time of popularity waned. Very sick and unfair. I admire that you said there's no shame in being a John Denver fan. I grew up on his music and followed him after the radio quit playing his songs. The Wildlife Concert is very good. I'm glad you kept an open mind and got acquainted with his songs. Again, thanx for talking good of him.
"Looking for Space," "Take Me Home Country Roads," "Annie's Song" are some of my favorites. Sweet, Sweet Music!
He was great
Wow...loved John Denver and Doris Day since I was a kid...thank you so much for this vlog.
I grew up loving John Denver's music . Loved his movies with George Burns hilarious ! Carmel is beautiful !!
I've watched so many of your videos and not sure how I missed this one! I loved John Denver and visit that spot every year in October when he passed. ( I didn't go this year 2020) When I woke up and heard that he passed away I drove 4rs to see where he passed away. He is dearly missed . A man with a voice for the future.Sadly missed today more than ever.
I think he was actually switching over the gas tanks.
Yep you're right, I was thinking the same thing when Jordan said that
This guy gets A LOT of things wrong in his vlogs...
@@Peart5220 lay off he's doing his best
i rather enjoy his vlogs
I knew the Man that sold John Denver that plane. He was a Vet in Santa Ynez and was also a stunt pilot. John wanted his plane, and he told John Denver that the switch to change gas tanks needed fixing and he needed to get it looked at ASAP. John never did obviously
@@vsjacobs6009 I left a comment about Gram Parsons because my father was a friend and musical director of his record, Grevious Angel. I think I corrected, or added something to it in my comment. However, my father was in the John Denver band for 13 year's as well. Dad said John did do things like that, not having the turn over switch for fuel. He worried about him. Wonder if the lion will cut all comments here too 😂
I have been a John Denver fan my as far back as I can remember. I remember hearing of his plane crash. And my heart sank. So many songs the world missed out on simply because the fuel tank switch was ignorantly placed, especially for such a small stature pilot. RIP John.
Thanks for doing this
I love John Denver. I saw him in concert many times. He was so talented. Thank you for posting this.
20 years ago, I hauled the large boulders into the John Denver memorial park in Aspen. Biggest Rock weighed 69k lbs.
They were sourced from a job across the highway from the Aspen Airport.
I’ve always wondered where his plane crashed. Thanks for sharing. “Thank God I’m a Country Boy”
He was a beautiful soul, indeed. I lived next door in Carmel-by-the-Sea for 10+ years and didn't realize there was a memorial for him in Pacific Grove. Very moving. RIP
Absolutely perfect Jordan. Orange is my favorite color so the sun glasses r perfect. And I love Doris Day. Pillow talk is my fav movie. Not to mention I spent about a year really digging deep into John Denvers life and his untimely death. Hundreds of hours of research. I'm sooooo happy this was my sun glasses vlog and that everyone gets to share it too. I just can't say thank u enough for everything. Amazing!! Missy J
Melissa Kowalewslki -- Orange is my fav color too! 😁 My car is orange! LOL
Loved reading your comment. Hoped your glasses arrived safe and you're enjoying them. Happy Holidays to you and your family.
John Denver was ahead of his time I was heartbroken when I heard about his death.
John Denvers unreal, a story telling singing voice that moved the rocky mountains high. Shattering news. Wow !! hw kool 2 b there on the beach at his plaque. Ur havn so much fun jah u birthday dog u. Dnt think that chicken even touched the sides. HAPPY BIRTHDAY 🐕
Is that u singig Jordan? I thnk it is.
My first concert ever was John Denver in Detroit in the 70's..The Starland Vocal Band played before him...Afternoon Delite!
Rip John Denver....You are in one of my favorite areas...I miss Carmel....I must go back and eat at the Cypress inn..Doris Day...another one of my favorites
I went to his last concert in Corpus Christi, Texas on October 5, 1997. It was heartwarming to see 10 year olds all the way to 80 year olds singing to his music.
Life ain't nothing but a funny funny riddle ! John Denver RIP. Beautiful vlog .
We have lost So many great talents to accidents--and while they are still young with so much more to give..... I remember John Denvers Mom saying "a parent should never outlive their child " --that just touched me so. His music-his voice brought out emotions that , I believe many of us keep buried and shouldn't -- so intresting... thank you-- !
I love John Denver's music, great video!
❤️ John Denver! Thanks for doing this
Thank You for doing a vlog about one of my top five ultimate favorite singers!!
Agreed with your statements about him! Listening to his his ex-wife Annie he thought people didn"t care for his music, HA, if he can see/hear it now!
AHHH Thank you!! Thank you for the Doris Day and the wonderful Bonus of John Denver!! Great work pal! Carmel is gorgeous!!
My grandfather danced with Doris day when she was still a singer in cincinnati in the early 1940s..he told the story for years up until he passed
Thanks for sharing! I really LOVE your wonderful informative vlogs since I live on the east coast in New England. I loved John Denver too and was so sad when he passed away and it still makes me sad to think of how he couldn't reach that switch to change engines! He was a highly skilled flyer like his father had been! But at least we have his beautiful songs to remember him by! I also love Doris Day and grew up watching all her fabulous movies, so talented in both drama and comedy and a great singer and dancer. Totally undervalued by Hollywood as far as I'm concerned. Carmel is gorgeous and love their quaint buildings and lovely landscaping! Great town!!
I agree with everything you said about John Denver. He was one of my favorites growing up.
Kudos ... R.I.P. John.
Stanwyck, Wayne, Parsons, Dean, Denver. What a great week you've given us, J. Thank you.
He was one of my favorite , I loved the the Chirstmas album with the Muppets!
I saw him in concert as a teen in the 70s. His music reached many millions.
Carmel rocks! Terrific video Jordan. Jah had the best place to celebrate his birthday. For those of you who might not know this, John Denver was Doris Day's guest on her last commercial project in 1975 called "Doris Day Today". Most libraries have it or you can buy it online. She adored him and he her. She sings with him and he with her all throughout the 1 hour special. Check out their singing "Follow Me". AMAZING beauty. Doris was in perfect voice. They look the same age!! John then had Doris as a guest on his TV special. She also went to Colorado on a ski trip visiting John and had a blast. John was taken from us too soon. J
Hey Jordan, I was watching a documentary and heard that he didn't wait for it to be refueled before taking it out and he ran out of gas. The popping was the engine out of gas. I am sure you meant fuel transfer switch, but it was located behind the seat and he ran out of gas before he could switch over. Tragic indeed. The worker at the airport wanted to refuel before he took it up, but he was excited and didn't wait. I believe it had 1/2 a tank and he thought it would be enough. Great vlog. Glad you and Jah are enjoying the airbnb. Looking forward to the next live stream. Take care/
you are right
Hi Jordan, jah is having fun so happy for him. John Denver had a beautiful voice and thank you so much for sharing with us . Besos from Puerto Rico 👍🤗👍
On a bio I watched on tv, the man that owned that airplane was interviewed and said John Denver WAS aware before hand, of the gear behind the seat and the difficulty in reaching it, but John said he would still take the flight.
Happy B-day Jah! This was an awesome video, thank you for sharing all those beautiful locations.
So enjoyed this! Thank you Happy birthday Jah
Grew up listening to John Denver so sad but he died doing what he loved fly high john rest in peace 🌹 love that beach.. your doggie Jah seems to really enjoy himself ....love it keep these videos coming I look forward to seeing them
Again, I agree with you #KarolineSmail - instead of airplane wings, John now has a pair of real wings and can fly free without any fear.... RIP John, you are missed and fondly thought of always!!
I’m a huge John Denver fan. Been out here several times to pay my respects and enjoy the amazingly gorgeous area. Great video bro
Here's a little FYI on the John Denver Crash. He had 2 'test pilots (guys who inspect airplanes for customers but seperately affiliated from each other)and both had commented on where the fuel tank valve was located (behind the pilot seat) and mentioned to Mr. Denver that it needed to be moved to the control panel. Each pilot had taken the plane to 5000 feet and upon turning to change the tanks over had gone into a dive of 500 feet because their right leg pushed upon the aleron pedal(?). John had told his friend Clint Easstwood that he would buzz his house during this particular flight and was flying at 500 feet to do that. When he attempted to change the tanks over, you guessed it he dove that same 500 feet as the 2 test pilots had mentioned, but being at such a low altitude he met the ocean. He was flying a 'Lite E-Z' experimental plane. The planes themselves are very safe but have pretty much all had the fuel tank switch moved from behind the seat to the control panel. Also John Denvers remains had 3 burials as he was literally torn to pieces and his remains were found by various people for quite awhile after the crash. Sorry, Mobid but True.
One correction and 1 added tidbit. John was cremated. There were no burials. His ashes were scattered in a couple of places. And what is most heartbreaking is he already dad plans to have the damn fuel tank handle moved to the front location in the long EZ original design. But he wanted to fly it once and test out his new toy, then have that adjustment, and a few more things done when he was out of town..
@@ellenw391 Correct.
I miss John Denver and I think about the songs he would have written . So happy that Jah is having fun - this is a really a treat for him.
I'm so Happy to see you having such a wonderful time with JAH. As well as documenting these times with him. It reminds me so much when I had my dog "dagger" and I took him to every dog friendly and not so dog friendly places along the coast untill his passing. Treasure these moments my friend, they are the Best of Times for you . 😃
I always love Jah's Birthday vlogs. Happy Birthday Jah. Seeing this one again was nice because of Doris Day's passing last year. One of my favorite vlogs. And blessings for you Father on his birthday too.
Took my children to see a John Denver concert in the round. My oldest son was 2years old when he used to "happy" dance to "thank God I'm a country boy". Precious memory.
John Denver was my all time fave. Thanks for the vlog Jordan have a Beatuful day Love to the jahster Lionheart4life Bruce
Beautiful community! I can't begin to imagine how it must it must be to feel the sand between your toes, and the view the vastness of the ocean. (Mine's on a CD ) So happy for you and Jah! Fantastic trip! Love to you both❤❤
Excellent vlog!!! i, too, always wondered where John's plane went down... and I've always loved Carmel, it was so wonderful to see it again.. Wonderful!! Keep up the great work!!!
When I was 17 YEARS OLD I brought JD First album Country Road ,have loved his music and movies over the years.
This vlog never gets old, I love it & I love Doris Day! I miss her so much, even though we didn't get to see her, we could feel her Beautiful Spirit. I think she is the reason I love daisies so much, #1.) her movie, Please Don't Eat The Daisies & #2.) Is her smile & face just lights up like a Daisy, so lovely!!! She just always reminds me of my favorite flower!!! 🌼
I am going to look to see if I can find the Wildlife Concert on TH-cam, I really want to see it! The first song of John's I remember hearing was Country Roads. I was in the 5th grade on a field trip & the bus broke out and started singing it, it was great!!! 😍
I'm sure I will revisit this vlog again, it's definitely ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐!!!
Good Morning Jordan. I Love the horses. Hi Jah. He is so adorable. I get a huge kick out of him. I remember John Denver really well. I Loved his music. “Rocky Mountain High, Colorado.” I loved his voice. It was a sad day, when he died. Thank you for filming this
It was said that John always mowed all his grass in the nude because he loved to be close to nature. 🙂 I loved his songs!! He always seemed so wholesome.
Carmel looks like a great community. Thanks for sharing, Jordan! Much appreciated.
Carmel is so stunning, Jahstar looks so happy. Hope you two have amazing time. I liked John Denver gone too soon
I loved seeing Jah on the beach. He was having such fun with the waves!!
Jordan Lee, thanks for the picture. You're the best!!
Grew up in the 70’s and was always a fan of John Denver. Thanks for taking us to the crash site. Hello Andromeda is my favorite Song by John
The switch behind the pilot seat was for the gas tanks. Tanks are in the wings. A Long E Z plane has one engine. We still go on the second Sunday of every October to sing his songs like he wanted. The plague was paid for by us fans and the family approved it. It took many years to get it done and finally installed. The log with his name on it was carved on the day he died. Judy, Charlie and other fans were there that evening. We, many who paid for the memorial and did the foot work, will be there is Sunday, come sing with us. Peace!
Really enjoyed the vlog. Great to see you and Jah enjoying this time together. I never knew much about Carmel but feel as though I do now. Both Doris Day and John Denver have given so much to us and I appreciate how you highlighted them both while sharing the beauty of the area. Thank you so much. M. Belinda Davis
I know this sounds morbid but what a beautiful place to go down. Greetings from Illinois!
What a great birthday treat for Jah. That pic you saw & referred to as "Civil War " era pic was Doris in her buckskin outfit from "Calamity Jane". I love that movie. My son had a teacher in high school was one of the men that recovered John Denver's body. No he was not a pretty site. I know more but I don't like to think about it. He needs to be remembered for his music. Sorry you didn't get to see Doris. As always thanks for sharing.
What a beautiful video. God I know the feeling, when I hear him sing, I cry my eyes out, his voice and his songs, were so beautiful... My fave is Annie's song and I'm Sorry that you mentioned, keep up the great work! :) Oh and have u seen him to Leaving on a Jet plane ( another fave) with Cass Elliot? It is so emotionally beautiful , check it out :)
You are an amazing pet parent! Your fur baby is blessed to have you and you are blessed to have him! Oh yeah and love your videos too!
My family and I were there that day. We saw his plane hit the water.. I went back the day they pulled the plane out. Sad day.
I still have some John Denver records.
Jordan has to be just the sweetest, nicest guy in the world. He's the kind of guy I always hoped to meet. It was so sweet to watch him wander around carmel and innocently take such joy from what he saw. I used to own a wedding flower business and did quite a bit of work in Carmel...some of the most miserable, rich, entitled, selfish, awful people I've ever met were in that town...or to be more exact, the country club ladies that abound there.Skinny, hateful, rich women, sporting visors, down vests, small dogs and a steely eyed grimace on their surgically altered faces...shudder. I love that he's so unaware of all of that and having such a good day with his dog...I find myself watching his pieces just to know that his kind of sweetness and kindness still exist. Thank you Jordan.
I loved this vlog so much. Happy to see Jah having a great time on his B-day with his daddy Jordan. Carmel is my favorite place to go. Haven’t been there since 2001. Nice tribute to John Denver as well. Thanks for making my day complete and now we have lost Doris Day too which makes this vlog extra special to cherish always. Love the way dogs are welcomed at that restaurant where you & Jah enjoyed your meal. ⛪️💐 ❤️🙏🏻🐕🦺🌹🌈
I really enjoyed seeing this episode. I am a big fan of Doris Day and have always wanted to visit the Cypress. Today, May 13, 2020 is the 1st Anniversary of Doris's death. She is so loved and missed. Thank you for posting this episode today, it really warmed my heart! ❤️
Thanks so much for this my mum loved Johm Denvers music as I do ; so bittersweet to see the crash site so many musicians have gone same way; those hotels looked ace ; Carmel looks so pretty and the beach and Jah looks like he had a blast for his birthday. Have a great week ! :)
Every dog should have an owner as loving as you. This birthday trip is awesome and Carmel is breathtaking. I haven't seen it in years and now I have to return. Thank you Jordan.
Loved this Jordan, Jah sitting in the restaurant waiting patiently absolutely tickled me what an supercool place 😍❣💕 the Little buildings so quaint and beautiful.... 🤓😍
Went back and watched an older blog that I had already seen. Still good just like the first time. Have a great day. Thank you for sharing.
Also on the Wildlife Concert was one of the GREAT solo acoustic guitarists, mostly playing mandolin on this, my good friend the late great Pete Hutlinger.
I love john denvers music sad he left us so soon rest in peace john denver. Youll be missed by many.
Singing Skies And Dancing Waters...a great under the radar John Denver song.
I loved all of it! Carmel is a town I could live in! I love how Jah had his fun on the beach- then got a bowl full of yummy chicken breast! So cute - how he sat there and patiently waited! I am so glad for both to have had such a great weekend! Well deserved!
Southern WV here! All Most Heaven West Virginia! Love what you are do! Happy Birthday, Jah!
I have loved Johns music since I literally can remember
Exactly no shame in being a John Denver fan. I was little when I learned to sing Country Roads. Loved seeing Kah have his chicken breast and great they have meals for the pups. Thanks Jordan 💗
I grew up listening to John
I have no shame. I watched a movie about his life and his music one of my favorites is always Sunshine on my shoulders makes me happy” miss his songs. Love you John!!
got to see John in person James was Ricky Nelsons guitar player for years as well. the late HAL Blaine also played with John
