Just Another Reggae Love Song
by James Carvell

Video produced by Hairy Larry aka Larry Heyl
James Carvell says:
"I started writing the song several years ago at about 2 in the morning after leaving an acoustic reggae show in Springfield, MO. I had such a good time at that show that I decided to write my own reggae song. I’ve always been a fan of the genre, but had never attempted to write my own song in the style. Over the next couple of days it evolved into a reggae love song. To be honest, it started out as a fun, joke song, but it turned out to be one of my favorite songs that I have written. It’s always fun to perform live. We made a video for the song a few years ago that is still on YouTube."
"I produced this video in 2014 using my one camera, one shot technique and it was included on a HairyLarryLand DVD but somehow it never got uploaded. Then when I picked the song for my From The Archives Of Something Blue podcast I decided to rectify my oversight."
Thanks Marty, today we’re hearing a song I wrote, recorded right here in Northeast Arkansas.
On April 6, 2013, NJHB played their fourth performance at TheArts@311 in downtown Jonesboro. NJHB performances are more like an event then a rehearsed band with a different set of musicians at every show playing all original songs often with new charts put up on the music stands for their first performance.
