"Best John Denver tribute ever. Close your eyes & you will think you are listening to John Denver himself. I had the great privilege of hearing Wayne aboard MV Oriana last December and was most impressed especially with the rendition of Calypso which was indistinguishable from the real John Denver. A concert on board ship never to be forgotten". - Chris Robinson
