That is sad. I was listening to 'Two Sevens Clash' just the other day.

Great artist. Let's hope he will be remembered.

You see, it's... it's no good, Montag. We've all got to be alike. The only way to be happy is for everyone to be made equal.

A great shame. Culture were my favourite reggae band of the '70s. I remember the NME loved them back in those long lost punk days when I actually used to take the speed-demented scribblings of Julie Burchill and Tony Parsons seriously when I read them at playtime.

Altogether now "I took a spliff this morning of the international herb..."

Rest In Peace, Joseph.
