Windsong in Bloomington, MN

Windsong
was released at the peak of
John Denver
's career, and rode to Number One on the strength of his previous success, and the epic
"Calypso,"
which happened to provide the touchstone for the album. Essentially,
is an album about communing with nature, and an overall thematic thrust is missing from many other
Denver
records. There may not be that many songs that match
but many come close, helping elevate
into
's front rank of albums. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine
