Hello everyone.

The passage below is what I dictated, listening to the beginning of a radio program �Tidbits in English� broadcast in Japan the other day.

Many listeners have requested to hear something by Peter, Paul and Mary. So today we�d like to answer your request by putting the spotlight on their hit from the year 1969. Let�s listen to part of the song. (part of the song �Leaving on a Jet Plane�) Words and music by the late John Denver, whom I�m sure all of you know with also an accomplished recording artist in his own right. Perhaps many of you out there have gone through a similar experience, where you had to pack your bags and leave someone you love behind�.

I�m not quite sure if I put it down correctly, especially the 4th sentence:
�Words and music by the late John Denver, whom I�m sure all of you know with also an accomplished recording artist in his own right.�

If you think of any possible mistake, please let me know.

Best regards,
Fw

Hi fw,

Good job transcribing. Only one mistake:

�Words and music by the late John Denver, whom I�m sure all of you know was also an accomplished recording artist in his own right.�
