 Weekend: Artwork from an old folkie
John Stewart was a 21-year-old California musician and songwriter when he was tapped in 1961 to replace Kingston Trio member Dave Guard.
The work of John Stewart, who played with the Kingston Trio in the '60s, will be auctioned Friday at American Stage Theater, and the artist himself will perform.
The Kingston Trio, from left, Nick Reynolds, John Stewart and Bob Shane played together until the group disbanded in 1967.

 pianist and composer Manuel Valera.
Abetted by John Patitucci (bass), Bill Stewart (drums), Horacio "El Negro" Hernandez (drums) and Seamus Blake (saxophone), Valera shows a keen jazz vocabulary, a gift for creating grooves that invite stellar solo flights from his collaborators and the nerve to romance a melody when it suits him.
Valera's colleagues—John Patitucci on bass, Horacio Hernandez or Bill Stewart on drums, Seamus Blake on tenor on four numbers—are so musically athletic they are able to follow and even anticipate the pianist’s most extravagant ideational outpourings.
With the superb New York City "A" Team of Seamus Blake (sax), John Patitucci (bass), and alternating trap drummers Bill Stewart and Horacio "El Negro" Hernandez, he shares mostly original compositions and showcases his technically flawless and unobtrusive touch, a quality that creates excellent layers of interplay to compliment soloists and themes.

Along the way he introduced the world to musicians and arrangers as great and as diverse as Bill Evans, John Coltrane, Gil Evans, Herbie Hancock, Wayne Shorter, Tony Williams, Ron Carter, Keith Jarrett, Joe Zawinul, and John McLaughlin.
Columbia Records, God bless them, is in the process of unleashing the most comprehensive aural record of any musician ever recorded.
He was frequently so far ahead of the curve that many in his audience couldn't even recognize the landmarks along the road, and it is only in retrospect that we now see the genius.

 Encyclopedia: Ian Stewart (musician)
Ian AR Stewart (18 July 1938–12 December 1985) was a British rock musician.
Stewart and Jones had been the musical leaders in the first incarnation of the Stones but distinct stylistical differences--the former's love for the jazzier boogie-woogie RandB of the Forties, the latter's penchant for the electric blues of the Fifties--nearly led to the group breaking apart.
In a grateful gesture, Mick Jagger acknowledged Stewart's contributions to The Rolling Stones at the time of their induction to The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1989 when he was inducted posthumously alongside his former bandmates.

 Frets magazine feature - June 1984 - PAGE 1
Nick Reynolds and John Stewart, formerly with the Kingston Trio, came together with Lindsay Buckingham of Fleetwood Mack for an album of, what else, but "high-tech folk" -- a curious combination of '50s and '60s folk harmony and '80s electronic, synthesized, "drummer on a chip" accompaniment.
While Reynolds says that inclusion of the tenor was initially to provide him with a prop, "Something to put between me and the audience," the higher voicing of the tenor (it was usually capoed at the 5th, 7th or 9th fret) added "bite" to Shane's open chord rhythm playing, greatly filling out the overall sound.
Reynolds, who also poses a fine tenor voice, was a master of harmonization, having learned tight and strictly enforced group harmony from family singalongs led by his father.

We noted him as a co-writer (with John Stewart) on such Trio favorites as "Chilly Winds" and "Oh Miss Mary" on the Trio's COLLEGE CONCERT album, and as a co-writer (with Dick Weissman) of "Oh, Sail Away" on the same album.
John could be the nicest guy in the world and not the nicest, he was a dude, a kat, a blueblood, a junky, a genius and a fool.
John knew that the music industry is heavily weighted in hype, and he never let it influence his judgments or his ideas.

 Snide Remarks Bill Stewart
Stewart has written exquisite tunes and on Snide Remarks they are played by incredible musicians.
Comment: Bill Stewart's wonderful drumming had already been featured on many fine recordings before "Snide Remarks" (such as John Scofield& Pat Metheny's "I Can See Your House From Here" and Larry Goldings's "Light Blue") but this album showcases his beautiful, avant-garde-flavored composing as well.
If you are a jazz listener who enjoys the drumming of Tony Williams, Roy Haynes, or Philly Joe Jones, then you must experience Bill Stewart's contribution to the art.

 James Maitland Stewart: 1908-1997

In 1995 on the occasion of Stewart's 87th birthday, both The Jimmy Stewart Museum and a new terminal building at the Jimmy Stewart Airport were dedicated with the help of daughters Judy and Kelly in his hometown of Indiana, Pennsylvania.

 Fan Opinions and Reviews on the Singles of the John Stewart Era
John has a knack for finding the pain, the joy and the exhilartion that can be found in Dylan's work.
John’s liner notes on the CHILDREN OF THE MORNING album assure us this was not the case, but obviously too few people read those notes back in 1966.
The song is an open admission of John Lennon’s infidelity during Beatlemania and may have been seen by veterans like the KT as a “breakthrough” in pop song-writing.

 John Scofield -- Bio
Part of that can also be attributed to the magnificent drumming of Bill Stewart, who is as good a musician as I've ever met.
"I’m not sure why, except maybe that Bill’s suitcase is always a complete wreck, and Swallow’s is always pristine." Since Stewart was the one who reminded Scofield of the tune (written in the earliest years of their collaboration), the guitarist felt it only fair to name it for the drummer.
Stewart’s rock-steady pulse and unique rhythmic conception are readily apparent from the opening bars of "Wee," the Denzil Best-penned bop standard that opens EnRoute.

 Victoria musician spearheads Buried Heart project-Apr 27, 2002
Two weeks ago, bed-tracks for the song, titled A Buried Heart, were recorded at Vancouver's Mushroom Studios with musicians Pat Stewart and Doug Elliot (formerly of The Odds), Vince Jones (from Sarah McLachlan's band) and Simon Kendall (Sharkskin, Doug and the Slugs).
But the musician, who lives off Commercial Drive in Vancouver, has witnessed his share of the metropolitan underworld and harbours few illusions.
It started when the 45-year-old musician (now based in Vancouver) became angry over media coverage of the Port Coquitlam pig farmer charged with serial slayings.

“Collapso”, a hilariously twisted Dave Stewart piece alternates twisty Stravinsky-esque passages with very campy pseudo-Calypso steel drum outbursts from guest musician Selwyn Baptiste (who was heard to quip, "Not bad for a white band" after the song was done).
Next comes the disc's piece d' resistance' “Squarer For Maude”, a wonderfully twisty, enigmatic and very engaging John Greaves piece that shows some marked Henry Cow influence in spots.
With the addition of bassist/composer/vocalist John Greaves (ex-Henry Cow), National Health gained additional musical depth and variety.
