The great and wonderful ska/reggae bassist and composer Lloyd Brevett, one of the original co-founding members of The Skatalites, died from seizures and complications from a stroke earlier today.
Our sincerest condolences go out to his family, friends, and colleagues.

We will have a longer remembrance of Mr. Brevett soon...
