Cover version by Pequinito. After I posted this video tribute to the Monkees, I learned that the songwriter John Stewart died on Jan 19 2008, so I added this obituary in his honour. The AP press report follows:
LOS ANGELES — John Stewart recorded some of pop music's most acclaimed solo albums, helping create a style that came to be called Americana, but he was always best known for writing the Monkees' enduring hit "Daydream Believer."
Stewart, who came to prominence in the 1960s as a member of folk music's Kingston Trio, died Saturday at a San Diego hospital after suffering a brain aneurism. He was 68.
"He was a lovely man and a very gentle soul and I guess the only thing you can say today is that the world is less one great songwriter," the Monkees' Mickey Dolenz told The Associated Press on Sunday.
Aos que passam por aqui, fiquem a vontade para comentar. Eu reparei que os hits para este blog aumentaram bastante. Para um blogueiro de primeira viagem mais de 100 visitas em 2 dias é muito! Esse incremento ocorreu de 2 semanas para cá, o que me deixa curioso para saber quem me visitou recentemente, além dos de costume. Será que foi por causa do post do Obama?.... Pessoal, cliquem lá embaixo e deixem seu recado. Abraço a todos
