The Art and Soul of John Denver New Songbook with Bonus CD of Unreleased Songs Now Available
Cherry Lane Music is very proud to present Poems, Prayers and Promises: The Art and Soul of John Denver. Years in the making and loaded with bonus material, this songbook/CD pack is a must for John Denver fans, who will treasure the large color section featuring his never-before-published nature and travel photography, concert memorabilia, and new interviews about his songwriting craft with the people who worked with him and knew him best. One such person is Milton Okun. The founder of Cherry Lane Music, Okun was John Denver¹s original publisher and producer, as well as his lifelong friend and confidante. Okun and others close to John, including partner and manager Harold Thau, wives Annie and Cassandra Denver, Olivia Newton John, Teri Garr, Tom Paxton and Ed McMahon, weigh in with their recollections. Needless to say, this publication is near and dear to the hearts of everyone whose lives Denver touched. Among the book's 23 songs are all Denver's beloved classics, including: Annie's Song - Calypso - Leaving on a Jet Plane - Rocky Mountain High - Sunshine on My Shoulders - Thank God I¹m a Country Boy - and more. To appeal to his vast following of fans, the songs are arranged in a variety of notation formats, from piano/vocal/guitar to guitar transcriptions with tablature. All songs feature his complete, poetic lyrics, so even non-musicians can enjoy the selections. Sure to be a special treat, the bonus CD that accompanies the songbook contains previously unreleased tracks of three tunes: "Calypso," "Mother Nature's Son" and "Take Me Home, Country Roads," from a live acoustic show Denver did in 1987. This songbook/CD pack is the second release in Cherry Lane¹s Art and Soul series. Time and Love: The Art and Soul of Laura Nyro (HL02500425, 1-57560-487-6, id="mce_marker"9.95) is an homage to the singer/songwriter who penned such hits as "And When I Die," "Eli¹s Comin'," "Stoned Soul Picnic" and "Wedding Bell Blues." Comments Cherry Lane President Peter Primont, "We are very excited to present The Art and Soul of John Denver. Both books in this series have been real labors of love, and we hope John and Laura¹s devotees will come to regard our folios as more than just songbooks."

NEW YORK Few artists earn the enduring adoration of fans around the planet. John Denver is one of the deserving ones. He is well-respected not only for his folk-rock compositions that remain radio favorites decades later, but also for his environmental activism, and popular TV and big-screen appearances opposite co-stars as varied as George Burns, Placido Domingo and The Muppets. Nearly ten years after his untimely death in a plane crash, his admirers clamor for more.
