During the late 60's and early 70's there began a reggae boom of sorts. Several artists began dabbing into the new reggae genre and introducing this musical style to the American people. One of the first reggae songs to take America by storm was "Hold Me Tight" by Johnny Nash. Like a lot of early reggae songs the song features a very simple walking bass line and the lyrics are focused on women and love.
