Rip to an amazing talent.

Difficult to find any videos of him playing his own music, but here's a great ska interpretation of Nat Adderley's Work Song with Rico on trombone: https://youtu.be/VrLc2YLZwTM
RIP

Was a time Man From Wareika was always on my turntable, one of the few albums from that time I've bothered to get CD versions of.

RIP
