R.I.P. Junior Murvin (1949 - 2013)

"Reggae star Junior Murvin passed away this weekend, according to a report on World A Reggae. Born in 1949, the Jamaican musician was best known for his Lee ‘Scratch’ Perry-produced 1976 single ‘Police and Thieves’. The song was later covered by The Clash on their debut album, introducing a generation of punks to the world of reggae and dub. Details are scant but we’ll add more information as it appears."
