Audio: Reggae drops

Sad news, Gregory Isaacs died today from lung cancer at his London home. RIP Gregory. You made it possible for me to hold many girls in my younger days.

RIP Gregory.

Another reggae legend passes at too young an age

Prolific quality output on a par with Dennis Brown I reckon. Similar too in the way that they had the ability to release tuff roots AND lovers tunes consistently and with ease over a very long period of time.
If I had to choose from the long list of top tunes from the cool ruler, I'd probably go for this :

Yea RIP Cool Ruler....yu will be missed, for any of you that missed it when Dave posted it, somewhere on this thread is a Gregory Isaac Warrior Sound Mix which is out of this world and well worth the search.......

 

[daveinprague]

Was listening to the Warria mix just the other day on my mp3.. it is a good mix for real.
Still trying to think of a favourite tune..private beach party ..at the moment.

Nice tribute show to Gregory here. Jeff Sarge lets the music play and gives some lovely interviews that give insight into the cool ruler from those that knew him.
