The stuff that now passes as "music", particularly rock 'n roll, leaves me cold. So, to start off the week, here's a video of a classic rock artist.
To start off the week we have Johnny Nash with his hit, "I Can See Clearly Now" from 1972. I still remember the first time I heard this song. A date and I were on the California Highway 60 (Pomona Freeway) on the way to the Los Angeles County Fair when the song came on the radio.
From Wikipedia:
John Lester Nash Jr. (August 19, 1940 – October 6, 2020) was an American singer and songwriter, best known in the United States for his 1972 hit "I Can See Clearly Now". Primarily a reggae and pop singer, he was one of the first non-Jamaican artists to record reggae music in Kingston.
"I Can See Clearly Now" reached No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 on November 4, 1972, and remained atop the chart for four weeks, spending the same four weeks atop the adult contemporary chart.
