Hi Arise_rootsman.
Answering your question, Lloyd Hemmings once told me that Lacksley died same way as Hugh Mundell... Shoot in the guetto. He didn't sound very sure but im just transmiting what he told me.
Blessings

i heard rumours that castell died because of anything about stomach cancer or something....very mysterious...you can't even find when and how he died

@ Leggo and Bwoyrough

His death was not related to the video but a drug deal in miami although not confirmed

Thanks Roddy.

In the words of Johhny CLarke (who I believe is still with us) "Just give up the badness"

Politics mixed with Reggae is a bad Combination, does anybody remember Jingles the owner of Skateland @ Half Way Tree?

Got shot on Sep 11, 1987 at Peter Tosh's home in Kingston, Jamaica.

Why people shot at Peter Toshs Home , anyone can explain me , thanks

i heard hugh mundell's death in two different storys. both detailed and completly different. any website containing the truth?

Free I & Wilton "Doc" Brown were killed along with Peter Tosh in his home also shot was Santa Davis & (I think) Marlene Brown.

You should check out Native Wayne Jobson's "Stepping Razor" documentary for more info, also VH1's Behind the Music on Peter.


from wikipedia:
n 1987, Tosh appeared to be on the way to a career revival. He was awarded a Grammy for Best Reggae Performance in 1987 for No Nuclear War. However on September 11, 1987 three men came to his house demanding money, and when Tosh replied that he did not have any with him he was shot dead, along with disk jockey Jess "Free I" Dixon. The leader was Dennis 'Leppo' Lobban, a man whom Peter had befriended and tried to help find work after a long jail sentence. Lebbo turned himself over to the authorities, and was tried and convicted in the shortest jury deliberation in Jamaican history: eleven minutes. Neither of his two alleged accomplices were found, though rumors persist that both were gunned down in the streets.

I've read Mundell was killed in argument over a refrigerator.
