“I Can See Clearly Now” is a song written, composed, and originally recorded by Johnny Nash.
 It was a single from the album of the same name and achieved success in the United States and the United Kingdom when it was released in 1972, reaching number one on the "Billboard" Hot 100 chart.
 It was covered by many artists throughout the years, including a 1993 hit version by Jimmy Cliff, who re-recorded the song for the motion picture soundtrack of "Cool Runnings," where it reached the top 20 at No. 18 on the "Billboard" Hot 100.
Joseph Bodner (January 16, 1925 - May 28, 1982) was an American painter.
 He was born in Florence Township, New Jersey and served in the United States Army Air Forces during World War II.
 After the war, he studied at the Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, California where he specialized in illustration and fine art.
 He often chose the vanishing West and white stallions as favorite subjects but his painting ""The Resurrection of Jonathan"," which was exhibited at the motion picture premiere of "Jonathan Livingston Seagull", is probably his best known work.
 As an illustrator, in 1978 he collaborated with Bruce Lee on the first volume of his "Fighting Method" martial arts books.
By the end of the 1940s, the nervous energy and tension of bebop was replaced with a tendency towards calm and smoothness, with the sounds of cool jazz, which favoured long, linear melodic lines.
 It emerged in New York City, as a result of the mixture of the styles of predominantly white swing jazz musicians and predominantly black bebop musicians, and it dominated jazz in the first half of the 1950s.
 The starting point were a series of singles on Capitol Records in 1949 and 1950 of a nonet led by trumpeter Miles Davis, collected and released first on a ten-inch and later a twelve-inch as the "Birth of the Cool".
 Cool jazz recordings by Chet Baker, Dave Brubeck, Bill Evans, Gil Evans, Stan Getz and the Modern Jazz Quartet usually have a "lighter" sound which avoided the aggressive tempos and harmonic abstraction of bebop.
 Cool jazz later became strongly identified with the West Coast jazz scene, but also had a particular resonance in Europe, especially Scandinavia, with emergence of such major figures as baritone saxophonist Lars Gullin and pianist Bengt Hallberg.
 The theoretical underpinnings of cool jazz were set out by the blind Chicago pianist Lennie Tristano, and its influence stretches into such later developments as Bossa nova, modal jazz, and even free jazz.
