A campaign to name a peak in the Colorado Rockies after singer JOHN DENVER has been blocked by U.S. officials.More than 2,000 people signed a petition to rename Mount Sopris in honour of late singer Denver, who wrote his hit 1972 track Rocky Mountain High while camping nearby.However, the plan was rejected by officials at
Reuters - NEW YORK (Billboard) - Creative plural notwithstanding, John Fogerty was the Blue Ridge Rangers on his 1973 solo debut, adopting the fictitious band moniker as a means of swinging back at writer's block and Creedence Clearwater Revival's flameout -- but not so much on the sequel, "The Blue Ridge Rangers Rides Again." For this warm set of 11 country-time covers (including a track from his 1986 album, "Eye of the Zombie"), Fogerty turns to his speed-dial list of superstars. He recruits Bruce Springsteen for a gallop through the Everly Brothers' "When Will I Be Loved?" and the Eagles' Don Henley and Timothy B. Schmit for Ricky Nelson's age-appropriate "Garden Party." Elsewhere, Fogerty is accompanied by folks like Buddy Miller and Kenny Aronoff. Not surprisingly, Fogerty settles into his country surroundings with a self-assured grace, especially on John Prine's melancholy "Paradise," Jerry Gillespie's "Heaven's Just a Sin Away" and even on John Denver's "Back Home Again."
Late country star John Denver's Rocky Mountain High was yesterday named the second official anthem for the state of Colorado, the singer's adopted home.

The song, which became a hit for the tragic musician in 1972, now stands alongside the original Where The Columbines Grow, which has been the state anthem since 1915.
