As we mourn the loss of foundation reggae singer, Sugar Minott, let's remember what he did for this music that we love. From his original selector days in Sound of Silence to forming Gathering of Youth Sound to forming the African Brothers with Tony Tuff and Derrick Howard to working with Coxson Dodd's Studio One. Sugar Minott's effect was, and is, the same: a resounding echo that calls for continued perfection of one's craft.
Sugar Minott was an artist and has left us MUCH too soon.
In loving memory, here is a recording of the original Studio One 45 of "Vanity Part 1":
The Oasis sends our deepest condolences to the family and friends of Lincoln Barrington Minott.
Rest in Peace.
