Luciano's Where There Is Life and Messenger sets are as sublime as Sizzla's Praise Ye Jah and Cocoa Tea's Tune In were stunning. Cocoa Tea, Beres Hammond, Luciano, Sizzla, Jah Cure, Fred Locks, Gregory Isaacs, Mikey General, Prince Malachi, Spanner Banner, Frankie Paul, Charlie Chaplin, Ini Kamoze, Sanchez, Chezidek and Turbulence all revived or started their careers and put out accomplished LPs/sides with him. This was heavy, reverb-soaked roots reggae at its best with a big UK steppas influence (though they were equally at home with lovers and dancehall). The Firehouse Crew and Sly Dunbar provided many of the riddims, teaming up with veteran engineer Soldgie to add fire to the new roots revolution. Greater success came later with Xterminator (Exterminator) Records, set up in 1989, providing strings of hits and ground breaking releases throughout the 1990s. The Kingston born (and UK raised) producer and promoter cut his 1st track with Sugar Minott in 1984 before going on to establish his Kings & Lions and Vena labels, recording hits with a range of singers and deejay through the late eighties and gaining a reputation for promoting unknown local youths. He finally fell into a coma and on Saturday morning before passing away later in the day.
He suffered a stroke two weeks ago and had been hospitalized ever since.
