4.0 out of 5 stars A Beautiful 'Dreamland Express' Indeed!, March 4, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Dreamland Express (Audio CD)

Pay no attention to the reviews of those below mine from St. Louis, MO and from South Carolina. They do not know what they are talking about. Snare drum or no snare drum, this is one of Mr. Denver's finest moments. This is a mature John Denver with some of the most stirring songs, arrangements and lyrics of John's career. He could not stay Mr. Rocky Mountain High forever. Even John Denver had to grow up; and grow up musically and spiritually he did. If only we still had him with us to record more wonderful albums such as this one. "Don't Close Your Eyes Tonight" is a standout track on this CD.

5.0 out of 5 stars Dear John at his best, a nice way to remember him, May 14, 1999

By A Customer

I love all of John's music and have 28 of his albums, but Dreamland Express is one of my particular favourites. Some of the songs on this seem to have a haunting beauty, like so much of his music...I love it

Having bought JD's albums since 1972 I had a lull - if I got bored or not I have no idea, he just did not seem to fit anymore. So I missed some releases. This was one, but when I heard it I regreted missing it - the music is rarely spectacular but it is very warm and engaging. Now the CD is a regular on my play list simply because it makes me feel good.And it generated my interest in his other late period releases. It is too easy to be critical as it set no real hights, but there are no lows either. It covers a variety of styles (Doo Wop as well) but remains JD - try it and you won't be sorry - except that you didn't hear it sooner.
