John Denver Rocky Mountain Christmas Record!



This is a subject I know almost nothing about. This is the only record I own and it is in rough shape. There are a few scratches on both sides and there is also damage on the case/cover. I don't know much about this record (or any record as I said before) other than the songs on it and that it's by John Denver. What I do know is why I bought it. In the 1994 movie Dumb and Dumber Harry Dunne (Jeff Daniels) says "Huh. I expected the Rocky Mountains to be a little rockier than this." to which Lloyd Christmas (Jim Carrey) replies  "I was thinkin' the same thing. That John Denver's full of shit, man." When I saw this record I was immediately reminded of the quote so I decided to buy it. It cost $1.00 which I think is fair for a nice collector's piece/decoration (I don't own a record player). I've also seen them going for around $5.00-$15.00 on eBay but I'm guessing those aren't as scratched up and the covers are in nicer condition.
