Reggae artist and producer Gregory Isaacs, 59, lost his long battle with lung cancer on Oct. 25th at his south London home. Isaacs has released over 500 albums during his career (many of those are compilations) which began in 1968. He would release his biggest hit, "Night Nurse," in 1982 on an album of the same name. Although the song didn't chart, it was very popular in the clubs and on the radio pushing the album to #32 in the U.K. (Simply Red would cover the song in 1997.) In 2008, Isaacs released the new studio album, Brand New Me, which earned many positive reviews.
