Me, too, bud!
It's actually pretty ironic to me the two things that probably earned John his livelihood and kept him from having to do something different than what he loves - the fact that the Monkees recorded Daydream Believer and Gold becoming a hit. These were hardly his finest work but you don't ignore a gift!
How July, You're a Woman (I would have tried that for a daughter name and had four chances, but I know who I'm married to....) did not become a standard in the American songbook is beyond me. California Bloodlines remains one of the top couple of dozen albums ever made forty years after release.
Must check Ebay for guitar....
