- Tom DeLisle introducing during fc8 his friend , the one and only John Stewart, who then sings "Daydream Believer".Nearly 7 minutes of unforgettable performance by John.
I had the great pleasure of booking John in 1997 and 98. I booked him with the Kingston Trio playing the night after and it was a joy to see them together again and do a song onstage... one of my favorite songwriters got to spend some time with him never forget it
John Stewart was one of my hero's for thirty years...I got to run sound for him twice what a fantastic performer.......RIP John...
The greatest country/pop singers of all time.
His voice gives me goosebumps.
Such a sweet voice.
First time listening to this guy yesterday, and it’s changed the whole way I hear and listen to this song. What a great voice
I was so sad when I heard that John Stewart passed away, all I could do was get out all my John Steward CD's and play them all.
I have seen John Stewart in concert 2 times and I have met him
i Had the pleasure of seeing him in Putney England in 1984.
The absolute disbelieve on his face when everyone knew every word was a sight I will never forget.
So good that Janet and I went back the next night as well
I was there too at the Half Moon .. With my 2 daughters sleeping in the car outside. Oh dear! .
one of the best singers ever!!! Funny too!
Sad. You could tell he was ill. He died a year later.
From Wikipedia: In 2007, Stewart was diagnosed with the early stages of Alzheimer's disease, but resolved to continue performing for as long as he was able. On January 19, 2008, he died from a stroke at a San Diego hospital, ten days before a scheduled performance in Scottsdale, Arizona. He was 68 years old.
I'm not happy he had a stroke, but I am glad he didn't have to go through the cruelty of Alzheimer's and possibly failing to remember all of his beautiful songs
A very funny and talented man. RIP John, and thanks for the memories.
Such a great talent. He is missed!
when i was a kid i always liked kingston trio. something i was brought up on by my older brother. didnt know then that he had been a part of them. then, as a college freshman i was officially introduced to his music and absolutely loved it. havent forgotten him. i miss this good man but sure enjoy the music that he left us.
I was there that night. And many many other nights over the years too.
He John Stewart was a freaking Icon God Bless HIm! Mike SAntillo
Absolutely fantastic
I remember my friend Paul dragging me to see this guy, "John Stewart" at the Celebrity Theater in Phoenix in 1970 - I never looked back. John was one of the very best live performers I've ever seen. I remember he reworked the lyrics a little ... "a daydream believer and an old closet queen"
Saw him a couple of times on new years eve at the celebrity. A long time ago. Celebrity is a great place for concerts
I saw John open the show for Jerry Riopelle at Celebrity Theater New Years Eve 1999 and in 2003 I saw John in Scottsdale and I met him and we had a long talk
And he called her Sweet Heart On Parade.
I'm still so sad about John's passing.
What an incredible artist!
The banter with the audience after 5:12 or so is priceless.
When someone calls out "Just ..." his slow take and turn to stage right is classic Jack Benny/Johnny Carson comic timing.
Sure do miss this guy.
I remember seeing John on the Merv Griffin show. He said he went to bed one night thinking "Darn all I did today was write Daybeliever" Pretty good day I would say.
"Now you know how funky I can be." These are the original lyrics, that he was forced to change if he wanted to have the Monkees record it. He gets the last laugh here.
Wow
He had dementia before he passed away and so did my mom
HE (not anybody else!!) wrote this song - that's all that matters!
Just strumming simple cords and singing along....
1962, Dad brought "M.T.A." home.( I can still recite the spoken intro from memory.) British Invasion. Work. Marriage. Death. Life. Now, 55 years later, June 2017, just discovering this guy. Led here from Me and Magdalena by the Monkees, to Daydream Believer, to reunion concert 1981 to this. Yes, it's been a long, strange trip to get here. But so glad I did, because John Stewart was wonderful. I like his 21st century performances because there's so much emotion and life experience in them.
Is this the same guy that sung "Gold" with Stevie Nicks??!!!
yup. even lindsey buckingham showed up to play in the song but it was john playing the guitar licks.
One year before he died....
Joseph Mooney - FC8 = Fantasy Camp 8.
Guitars & words seems easy !!!
Interesting that he sings it with his original "funky" lyric ,instead of "happy" as it was recorded and made famous.
Teardrops for pop music
Great posting; glad to find it. What is FC8?
Possibly a reference to this being from a Kingston Trio Fantasy Camp.
Seek out JS album "The Lonesome Picker Rides Again" to find his great goofy relaxed version.John was not at his best here.
Can an English native speaker write down what he says about Bob Shane's new album's joke ?At 6:10. I can't catch the words. Thanks in advance .
I aLWAY LOVE HIS SINGING.
SAD TO THINK THE TRIO IS DEAD EXCEPT FOR SHANE
Absolutely stunned. Loved Dave, Nick, and John.
And now we learned why some song writers give their songs to others to sing!
John is 68 years old here. Not exactly his prime.
None what?
Sense
KRasser Schitt, sieht aus wie der Bruder von Johnny Cash
NOT nearly 7 mins - first four minutes are taken up with blahblah by Tom - 'jest play that effing music' is my feeling.
who cares what you are feeling?

Ohhhh , did your little itty-bitty feelings get hurt. no one cares.
@@artvallejos1460 Shit you CAN read after all - amazing - thought it was your psych nurse reading it out aloud to you in the home - now do us all a favour and appear in the obituary pages.
