Drummer Sly Dunbar is no more. If you've not heard of him you've almost certainly heard him.

Sly and Robbie were tops and contributed to many of my favourite albums of the 80s, all the Island Records stuff, Grace Jones, Robert Palmer. Future shock by herbie hancock, and loads more. Their own album with 'boops' on it.

But i didnt know he was the drummer on double barrell by dave and ansel. Very influential electronic percussion and bass, and reggae of course.

Bass - the final frontier.
