It was released as a 45 by Capitol Records on April 20, 1964. Song was written by John Stewart and sung by him. However, it was on the Kingston Trio's album "Time to Think" released by Capitol in December, 1963. |

If you were like me and bought all of those Kingston Trio LPs, you will probably remember the cover of the Time to Think album being somewhat startling for a KT album cover. |

They certainly had something special. Loved them when I was first getting bit by the 'folk' bug. I can still hear many of their songs. |

On Time to Think, all I see is two guys with guitars and one with a banjo. And they're not smiling - Oh! I get it! They're not wearing matching outfits! Right? -Joe Offer- |

Bob Shane has retired and he now manages the group. Two of the current members are former members of the Limeliters! |

The Bear Family book has this information about the song: Master recorded Nov 26, 1963. Album released Dec 30, 1963. Single, with "Seasons In The Sun" on the B side, released April 12, 1964. "Undoubtedly the angriest song the Kingston Trio ever recorded, If You Don't Look Around became the last single from 'Time To Think', released to total radio indifference in April of 1964. Based on what his own eyes saw during 1963, John Stewart was issuing a challenge in song to those who turned their eyes and consciences away from the Civil Rights Movement. Like Coal Tattoo, If You Don't Look Around allowed the Trio to vent rage and despair, and turn it into art." |
