John Stewart, who wrote the Monkees' hit "Daydream
Believer" and became a well-known figure in the 1960s
folk music revival as a member of The Kingston Trio,
has died, according to the band's Web site. He was 68.
Stewart suffered a massive stroke or brain aneurysm
and died early Saturday at a San Diego hospital, the
band announced on its official Web site.
"The world has lost one of its best men, but a man
who lived well and made many people happy with his
love, his wit and his music," the announcement said.
Stewart joined The Kingston Trio in 1961, three years
after the band released its version of an old folk
song, "Tom Dooley," that went on to become a hit.
Stewart replaced the band's founder Dave Guard, who
had left to pursue a new musical direction.
Stewart spent six years leading the group, during
which time the band recorded 13 albums, according
to its Web site.
After the trio disbanded in 1967, Stewart went on to
an acclaimed solo career that included recording more
than 40 albums.
A statement from the band remembers Stewart as a
man who "made many people happy with his love,
his wit and his music."
Stewart's wife Buffy and children were at his side
when he died, the Web site said. Plans had not been
announced for memorial services.

looking for some help here:
in the early-to-mid seventies i remember a song titled 'july you're a
woman' written by john stewart and performed by a group called 'red
white and bluegrass' (not sure where, if any, commas belong in that
name). my mom listened to an AM radio station and this song was in
heavy rotation for a while. there are several covers of this song but
the recording i'm looking for is the one by this group. the album,
when last searched for, is out of print and never released on CD;
also, it is not available for download (legally, don't know about the
file-sharing sites as i don't/won't venture there).
unlike me, anyone have a clue where to obtain this?

this is one of things that interests me when i'm reminded to be
interested, like when the songwriter dies or i hear his music on the
radio. i do have notifications set up for certain sellers as they
consistantly list items of interest to me.
