When I travel, you may meet people at opposite sides of the world. As an example, you might meet people from New Zealand. And when you tell them you're Colorado-based, Colorado the response is "Oh John Denver!" Brown stated. Take Me Home Country Roads was co-written by Bill Danoff - was Denver's first Top 10 single as a solo singer after a brief period in small folk ensembles. Danoff had originally written the tune with Johnny Cash's music in mind, but Denver was aware from the very first moment he listened to the early versions that the song would be a big popular. Danoff recorded the track just a few days later when he performed it in front of crowds of enthusiastic fans on the streets of Washington D.C.
