Gregory Isaacs passes at 59.



Gregory Isaacs died yesterday from his battle with lung cancer. The king of lover's rock, he was one of my all time favorite reggae singers. A remix of "Night Nurse" was one of the first reggae songs I remember falling in love with; the full length album of the same title was one of the first reggae albums I purchased. It remains a favorite that I listen to regularly. Certainly one of the best performers (among a list of many) to work with the Roots Radics. Rest in peace.
