12 Jan 06 - 11:00 AM (#1647027) Subject: Tune Req: Country Roads reggae version From: GUEST,fretless I'm looking for a reggae instrumental version of John Denver's Country Roads. I heard it in a bar a week or so ago but they had it on a muzak tape and didn't know the source. Can anyone help with the name of the recording? By the way, if, for some twisted reason, you're looking for a non-instrumental reggae version of John Denver's hit, it has been recorded by Toots Hibbert (Toots and the Maytals) on a number of recordings (Live at Red Rocks; Funky Kingston; etc.). |

Have you heard Willie Nelson's reggae covers on Countryman? Surpisingly (well, not really surprising) good. Best cover of Country Roads (IMHO) is Bruddah Iz's Hawaiian take on it. |
