Song of the Day-Sun Is Shining

Wow what a terrible morning to be out! I had to get up early and drive my son to "Jazz Band' at the Royal Oak Middle School. He has to be there at 7am. Please please please turn to freezing rain so I can really be annoyed. Anyway, I am, from this moment on, going to think positive thoughts. Here is a song that was originally recorded by Bob Marley and the Wailers on their 1971 "Soul Revolution" album. These early albums are the unadulterated Reggae stuff, not heard much outside of Jamaica and certain discerning Reggae fans in the British Isles. Then there is the re-recorded track from his 1993 album "Kaya" released later on the "Natural Mystic" collection which was a follow-up to the massive selling "Legend." Got that? This will be on the test. "Sun Is Shining" for you on Song of the Day. Let's change the weather with some positive thinking! Here are the "Soul Revolution" and "Kaya" versions plus the bonus remix by Funkstar Deluxe which reached number 3 on the UK charts in 1999! "Chant" along with your fellow "Bredren" mon!
