ARGH! How I hated Denver with a passion! I'm a metalhead, I need some Priest,Van Halen, Maiden please! The invention of the walkman was a savior! Seriously, "Country Roads" over and over was bit much. Of course years later I had to wonder how my parents were going to take the Denver death. After reading his book I was glad to see that even a soft country star had his rockstar life metal moments.
