85, not a bad run.  Heard this on the BBC News.

This was the last I had heard from him.  Used to good effect in Kings of Summer.

 

Smoking all that jazz cabbage finally caught up with him

It may be just because I’ve heard this a million times while driving around in GTA but this is my favorite of his

You have heard him even if you weren’t aware.  In addition to so much well known reggae and dub his nfluence and innovation is all over so many styles of music.  I used to have the “Arkology” box set, which was tremendous.  Those albums jn the Rolling Stone write up are also very good starting points.  I haven’t listened to some roots/dub in way too long.  Time to fire up some good vibrations.
