I've been feeling romantic lately, but I'll let Johnny Nash tell you all about that. Nash, who was born in Houston, Texas in August of 1940, was the first non-Jamaican singer to record reggae music in Kingston, Jamaica. You can read more about Nash here and I've included the liner notes from his 1958 debut LP below. There's a neat video clip of Johnny Nash singing his 1972 hit "I Can See Clearly Now" here:
