Roots Archives Forum

Hey, I came to this forum to pick some dub knowledge out of your minds.
I was lucky enough to see Lee Perry in concert in Leicester in October 2010, and that reawakened a dormant interest in reggae, which in truth had always been within me. I then got his Arkology compilation, and one of the artists who immediately jumped out at me was one Errol Walker, whose brilliant vocals were on the tracks 'In These Times' and 'John Public'. I've searched the internet to find information on Walker, but I couldn't find a thing, not even if he is still alive.
Can anyone help? I'd love to hear more of his music (if there is any - I see this site has a list which notes some of his collaborations), and I'd also like to find out more about this brilliant vocalist.
Thanks for your time.

Actually he's more a bass player who keeps on recording and touring with the Gladiators.
I think he's been recording a lot at Studio One also.
