Johnny Nash, RIP

Was sad to see that Johnny Nash passed away yesterday, though to be honest, I didn't know he was still alive. The news was kind of overshadowed by the death of Eddie Van Halen on the same day, but he never released any Christmas music, while Nash released this album back in 1969. I don't know why it's so unknown today, but I have a copy of it, and I've been sharing it with you since 2008. (This is a remaster I did in 2012, but didn't share until 2018, so it's at a pretty decent bitrate, if you care.) He may have only had the one hit song with I Can See Clearly Now, but it was such a great song that he's well remembered today. Maybe this great Christmas album will demonstrate for you that he had a career outside of his one-hit-wonder status.  This is Johnny Nash-Prince Of Peace (JAD JS/1001, Stereo, 1969). Enjoy!
