... arrayed beauties pictured on its cover; it was, in fact, a rather solid record in the Johnny Nash pop-soul-reggae mold. A couple of Brook Benton covers, a rendition of Neil Diamond's "Sweet Caroline," a Johnny Nash tune, and a few original compositions all cut in the kind of slightly fey, nostalgia-tinged "revival" style that would help birth lovers rock in the 1970s....

JOHNNY NASH - “Tears On My Pillow” (FreakyTrigger)

Tue, 01 Apr 2008 13:22:25 GMT

(#373, 12th July 1975) Less pillow, more comfort blanket, this gentle, stringsified reggae lope starts with a promise of heartbreak - that bowed and broken intro - which the lyrics might keep but the music doesn’t. It’s not that reggae songs can’t be sad, but ones as jauntily and lightly played as this would find it difficult: the rhythm here is lending Nash strength, not underpinning his sorrow....

It's a Sam Cooke song! (Mainstream Isn't So Bad...Is It?)

Sat, 10 Nov 2007 16:10:00 GMT

Lately there have been some kind people posting Amy Winehouse 's cover of Cupid which is from the BBC Radio 1 website. It's been attributed to Johnny Nash by some and The Supremes by others, and while both have performed the song during their respective careers, the true original writer and performer of the tune is Sam Cooke . Sam was INCREDIBLY important in the acceptance and integration...

A Herculean Task (Übermilf)

Tue, 11 Sep 2007 03:07:00 GMT

I can't think of any legendary hero whose appeal has lasted as long as Hercules. Thousands of years have passed, yet he still inspires a Disney movie and a cult TV show . Is it the homoeroticism that somehow became attached to his character that makes him so unforgettable? As early as the 1960's -- in a cartoon aimed at children, no less -- Johnny Nash can't contain his feelings when...
