| Hi Jim,
I was making a special Valentines gift for my wife, which entailed lyrics etc from some of your fantastic music. We have been fans of your talent for many years since we first encountered you on our honeymoon in Breckenridge in 1999/2000. We wandered into The Wellington Inn for some wine and to listen to the music that we could hear resonating into the street as we passed by...you actually dedicated Queen Anne's Lace to us on that evening after we briefly spoke with you. Since then your music has been a large part of our relationship, and I just wanted to take the opportunity to say hello to you, and thank you for being a part of our many wonderful years together (thus far).
Hopefully you will make it back to Florida again some day; however, we are possibly due back in Colorado the latter part of this year, so maybe we will be able to catch one of your shows.
Take care, and thank you for allowing us all to be a part of your music.

| Hello, Jim!
My friends and I just saw you in Minden, NE, and enjoyed your concert immensely. I'm hooked on Bristlecone Pine and have played that CD over and over, but can't quite figure out the chords. We've checked for Hugh Prestwood on line, but couldn't find a source that would allow us to buy sheet music for the song. Can you direct us to a source to buy the sheet music?
Thanks very much, Jim, and take care.

| Hi Jim,
Just thought I would pop in and say hi. I met you back when I was going to school in Denver at the Colorado Institute of Art and had Dugg Duggan as a teacher. I actually did a feature story on you when I worked at CBS in my hometown of Hays, Kansas back in 1994/95 when you came to Fort Hays State University and played at a little place called "The Backdoor!" Anyway, hope all is well and if you still run into Dugg, tell him and old student from Kansas says hi!!!
Take care and God bless!

| Jim- you are an amazing singer and guitarist. I sang with you at the Broadmoor Christmas because I am in children's chorale, and I also came to the show on the 21st. I really love your version of Rocky Mtn High...it sounds a lot like John Denver's. |

| Jim - Wanted to drop a line saying we had a great time at the Broadmoor Rocky Mountain Christmas show this year! Your performance of Rocky Mountain High was the best we've heard since John himself belted it out so many years ago. You have an amazing stage presence and our group really felt plugged in when you were performing. Excellent job and thanks for putting on a show with so much energy and enthusiasm!

| Hey Jim. I just received the "Timberline" CD that I ordered. I grew up listening to this album. I LOVE IT!!! I am originally from Kearney; grew up there. You knew my brothers, Bill & Jack Muller. Jack has since passed away (1996). So this brings back great memories for me. I will charish this CD always. Takes me back to my younger years. Thank you for having such talent...this is a rare gift. I am hoping to order another CD of yours by X-mas. Keep up the fantastic work.

| I had the pleasure of visiting the Platte Valley during the Spring Sandhill Crane migration with my 89 nine year old father this past March. I had never made the connection of the song "Circlin'" to the Sandhill Crane, but it makes sense. Wish I could run up to Colorado Springs for that Broadmoor Christmas program. Best to you and all of your family from one of your really long time fans.

| Jim, It was 1977 at Wesleyan College in Buckhannon West Virginia, and a band called Timberline changed us forever. That was 30 years ago, and your music still resonates with me for more reasons than I have space or time to write. I had a taped copy of the album that a girlfriend gave to me that is now too worn to listen to now, so the music in CD version is a true gift. Thank you for your timeless contributions. I'm hoping that some of my long lost classmates from then might find this site and enjoy the trip as much as i have. |

| Hi Jim.
I love The River Song, and was writing the words down when I came to the chorus and wasn't sure how it goes.
Could you please add the words to this song someplace in your web site.
I hope to see you in Aspen in October in a few weeks.
If you could find the time, we hold evening jams / sing-alongs in the Mountain Chalet lobby almose every evening during the Gathering.
It would be a real treat to see you there and even join in on some songs with us.
Thanks,
Dale Searcy, Roy Utah.

| Since attending your concert Friends of John Denver at our Discovery Center last night, I've been re-singing many of the songs you so artfully created during your performance. Thank you for finding the time in your schedule to come to our communtiy and share your music! The table with your CDs was too small and way too crowded (and I know why), so I will get a CD from your Website. Please come back again next year! |

When we listened to it, it made us feel like we were at the Grand Canyon, and because we live in the Netherlands, it was an amazing experience :D

George and I were at the Mt. Vernon concert on May 17. We had a fabulous time and LOVED your singing and music. To be honest, we'd never heard of you before and now I will keep up to date on your concert schedule. You are a very talented and personable man. I could listen to you sing for hours.
Thanks for the great night. It was our 32nd wedding anniversary celebration and a very memorable one at that.

| Hello Jim! You changed my life when we first met at Dollywood back in the late 80's. My wife and I were mystery Shoppers for several venues in Tennessee, Dollywood being one) We talked to you as you played in the park and I knew I had to pick up my guitar again and play after being inspired again by your wonderful music. We met again here in Ft. Myers again in the late 90's and I had brought the original cassette we purchased that day. My wife and I wish you well and hope you are doing okay these days. I have just retired from playing music and now enjoy doing studio work and building a new home in Tennessee and will move in late 2007. I have about 78 of your albums I enjoy listening too on a regular basis. You have really changed this life and hope you touch others as well. From a believer, Don Mangus |

| I was introduced to Timberline music when I was a freshman in college 19 years ago. I was devastated when my album was ruined and I could no longer play the music. I've been singing your music to myself all these years and my husband doubted your existence until I was able to play him a music clip from your web site. I ordered a CD a couple years ago but it never came. I'm going to give it another try and I hope it shows up this time! Thanks for the great music! |

My Fiance and I will be getting married in Breck July 20, 2007 and wanted to see if you were available, but it appears you will be in Northern California at that time. Do you have anyone you would recommend in Breck for an evening of entertainment July 20th? Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

| Hi Jim. My parents saw you in concert in Lincoln, NE when I was about 6 years old. I am 29 now and still feel that your album, Kinderhut, was life changing for me. I tried to find this album online as the tape I had as a child had been played and played and played and played... so I did find All the COlors, which is wonderful. I have a son now, Oliver who is 21 months old, and he is already learning and loving the great messages and sounds in your music. Thanks for teaching this big kid and now my little kid just how much music can change your life, bring you out of a crabby mood and teach you that you really do have to "learn how to walk before you run..." |

| Hi Jim,
I had the privilege of meeting you on Captiva Island, FL back in 1987 (around that date anyway). You were playing at Cap'n Als on South Seas Plantation that week. I was a musician who had not played out in a few years, being a new mother, and you graciously invited me to take your spare guitar home for the night, and join you "onstage" the following evening with some of my music.
I have never forgotten your kind spirit, and musical genius, and to this day, I listen to all of the tapes I came home with, like Blue River Dreamin', Look Through Any Window, Genuine Colorado, etc.(6 in total)!
I'm still playing music. My current husband and I have a trio in NJ called KOKA with a great friend of ours (also a talented songwriter!)
Anyway, just wanted to say hello after all these years, and visiting your website and seeing all you've been up to was a real treat!
Take care,
Pam (McCoy) Minson

Sing out and long to carry the dream on.

| Jim I would like to add one more entry from another of your many fans that attended that magical night in the blizzard at St. Johns university in Collegeville Mn. 1977 I can truly say that no other concert has even come close to topping that one. And I have been to hundreds..... I searched many record shops until I found a demo copy of The Great Timber Rush in pristien condition. I have not had a turntable to play it so it has been kept on my book shelve. I have searched every music download service there is trying to find the digital version and walla tonight I found your web page. I ordered the CD so now I will be able to listen whenever I want. You are truly gifted and I want to thank you for sharing that gift with us. According to your web page you are going to be in Minden Ne. April 22nd I will be there front and center. |

If so I would love to come and hear you again and have my husband meet you. I tried to find your performance schedule on line but so far can't find anything before the end of February. I will keep checking though. I wondered if you would be in Fargo, ND... Would be wonderful to hear you again.... Hi to Pam and the kids. Eleanor Lindeman |
