John Denver was a wildly successful folk artist whose forays into country music earned him the genre’s most prestigious awards. “Take Me Home, Country Roads” and “Rocky Mountain High” are two songs that still live on in the 21st century. “Thank God I’m a Country Boy” (1975) is one of his three No. 1 hits on the country airplay charts. The New Mexico native (real name Henry John Deutschendorf Jr.) died at age 53 on October 12, 1997 when his plane crashed in California. He was the only person on board.
