Just caught up with the sad passing of Alton Ellis. Anyone who likes early reggae or rocksready will have come across him.

the very very last tune that came on in the pub before I left tonight was I'm Still In Love With You by Alton Ellis, its weird my first thought was fuck I havent heard this tune in ages... fuck he was so good he's going on the stereo when I get home first thing, RIP

I saw an elsebound train, on the overpass
In the driving rain, every ticket costs the same
For where you can't go
Mustang horses, champagne glasses
Anything frail anything wild
It's the price of living motion, what's beautiful is broken
And grace is just the measure of a fall.

A true giant of music, humble man and joyfilled music.
