Baker's Dozen

Artists discuss the 13 records that shaped their lives

9. Gregory IsaacsNight Nurse

Another voice to come out of the little island Jamaica that laid the foundations of Roots/Reggae music, the cool ruler, the late great Gregory Isaacs. The title track ‘Night Nurse’ needs no introduction, covered by Mick Hucknall from Simply Red and loved by all music lovers. A must for my album selection.
