That's really sad news - one of the most distinctive and best voices in reggae.

That saddens me a lot. I grew up with his music and his golden voice. Another blessed talent has gone.
R.I.P. in Zion.

It seems that not a week goes by now without one of the greats passing on. As I-Lion Tafari says these are the voices we grew up with. So sad.
Thanks for all the memories. R.I.P.

And to rub some salt in us reggae fans wounds. The national digital radio station set up by the BBC to cater for ethnic music fans, BBC 1xtra fails to mention this in their news bulletin - but they've got plenty of coverage time for the late Linda Bellingham (if you've not lived in the UK you won't have a clue who she was) If David Rodigan wasn't doing a show with them on Sunday evenings, I'd show them my contempt by deleting them from my presets.

Very sad news. One of the best - he made great Roots tunes and fine lovers, too.
R.I.P. John.
