Montego Bay! - 10 Minutes' Pleasure - DAZZ

Share this ARTICLE with your colleagues on LinkedIn .

---

"You ain't been 'til you been on Montego Bay..." The original version was done by one-hit wonder (white chap with a 70's - style afro) Bobby Bloom, and everyone loved it. It was seductive, soothing with a wonderful chorus and some nice island harmony. The second version [The RadioDAZZ Blog gives you options!] is a sweeter reggae version (not as well known) performed by Freddie Note And The Rudies. Take a ten minute swim in azure-tinted gentle waters off the soft sandy beach and listen...

Ten minutes' pleasure to break up the work day and restore your spirit and love for life.

Uncle Dazz loves you. Now - give it a try. Click, listen, come back, and listen to the second version. Treat yourself - you deserve it. Your soul is crying out for it. Montego Bay. Drift away for a short while.

"I Can See Clearly Now" - Johnny Nash Dazzercise

Share this ARTICLE with your colleagues on LinkedIn .

---

Johnny Nash, with his crystal-clear tenor voice and lyrical style actually brought reggae (he was the original pre-Bob Marley , pre-Jimmy Cliff and pre-Third World REGGAE AMBASSADOR) to the United States with a wonderful song that came out in the 1960's titled "Hold Me Tight".

Years later, when I was a college freshman (1972), I was at one of those mindless-lights-out-and-everybody-crammed-in-one-dorm-room-and-make-out-(or-pretend-to)-incense-scented-ultraviolet-light-on-your-Morrison-or-Henrix-posters parties, when "I Can See Clearly Now" just came on. Although my drug of choice at the time was very cheap rose wine, the sounds of this reggae-cum-cha-cha with its island lilt and syth sounds made me feel like I was having the mind-expanding experience of my life. I wanted to buy the record. It was an aphrodisiac and a psychedelic -- all legal, and all safe.

It was a brilliantly arranged and performed song. It grabbed me. So did some girl from Brooklyn I'd never met before...

But enough about me. Please click either on the button or on the YouTube Video Player (if it makes and appearance) and indulge yourself in this classic.

Third World - "Reggae Ambassador"

Share this ARTICLE with your colleagues on LinkedIn .

It's true. I'm no fan or rap or hip-hop (with the exception of a few pulse-filled, musical and memorable ones). I am also finicky as heck about reggae. Most of it leaves me bored, but some of it can rock me back on my heels and make the hair stand up on the back of my neck.
 
I am a major fan of Third World, The late Johnny Nash and Eddy Grant (on occasion).
 
Here's a long play version of Third World's "Reggae Ambassador" which combines right foot reggae, some hysterically clever (listen carefully) rhythmic rap, signature harmony, syth drums (P.U.). This version gets a premature circumcision prior to its natural endpoint, but it is thrilling to listen to. Beautiful delivery of a message of peace. We should all give peace a chance.
 
My friend Jay Goldberg introduced me to this song, as he has to countless others which have enriched my life's experience. Thanks, Jay.

This one's for you, best buddy.

Third World - "Now That We've Found Love"

Share this ARTICLE with your colleagues on LinkedIn .

Third World - A crossover reggae/ Top 40 band with fabulous rhythm, tight harmony. They are one of my favorite reggae groups, because 1) they are not too hard core; 2) you can't help but sing along to the refrains in their songs; and, 3) it is apparent that there is quite a bit of the Gamble and Huff (writers for the Stylistics and the Spinners) lurking in their material, arrangements, and production. This is a great song: "Now That We've Found Love."

Despite the musical challenges I face being a middle-aged white guy, Third World gets to me. Listen to some of their other songs such as:

Reggae Ambassador
Try Jah Love 
Dancing On the Floor 

For now, enjoy "Now That We've Found Love."

There is a bonus picture at the very end of this post. I don't charge for these. Yet.
