The opening track to his fifth studio album Aerie, “Starwood in Aspen” is about his home in Colorado. As an artist that cared deeply about the environment, the song was a compliment to the ship and its captain’s important research. Whilst aboard the ship, John Denver began writing the chorus for the song. Jacques-Yves Cousteau bought this ship and turned it into an oceanographic vessel, using it to research the effects of climate change and pollution on the ocean. One of John Denver’s songs that was almost abandoned, “Calypso” appeared on his 1975 album, Windsong.
