Covers: Take Me Home, Country Roads

The original version of “Take Me Home, Country Roads” was recorded by John Denver in 1971.

A really creative cover by reggae artist Toots & the Maytals was released in 197e as “Country Road”

Toots substituted “West Jamaica” for “West Virginia.

Sorry West Virginians. John Denver's "Take Me Home, Country Roads" was actually inspired by Maryland. https://t.co/Cxm8qG3T4h
