Notes
-----
On Friday, November 17th 2000, the news of Bim Sherman's
death - one of the true unsung heroes of roots music as well
as reggae's most enduring cult figures - reached the reggae
massive worldwide. After he got injured as a result of a
fall, Bim Sherman was admitted to hospital where, on
examination, he was found to have cancer. Then health
matters didn't go well and within one week he passed away.
It is obvious that his unexpected sudden death is a great
lost for his family and friends. But be convinced that Bim
Sherman's many committed fans, who supported the artist and
his music for two and a half decades by now, are also
mourning for the lost of this truly very underrated,
extremely talented and diverse artist.
Singer/songwriter Bim Sherman, whose aliases include Jarrett
Tomlinson, Jarrett Vincent, Lloyd Vincent, J.L. Vincent, Bim
Shieman and Lloyd Tomlinson was born on the island of
Jamaica in 1952. Bim Sherman belonged to a generation
dreadlocked singers, who emerged in the mid-seventies to
express the Rasta vision of Babylon's fall and corresponding
redemption for the righteous through their roots reggae
music. Almost from the very first start of his recording
career Bim Sherman showcased his wilfulness, which turned
out to be a strong force for this man's unique approach of
the music and its business. Unlike many of his
contemporaries, who mainly recorded for a certain producer
or even a variety of producers, Bim Sherman scraped enough
money together to record almost an entire oeuvre on
self-financed labels like "Scorpio", "Red Sea" and "Sun
Dew". Occasionally Bim Sherman also cut songs for local
producers Dudley Swabey, Prince Far I, Jah Lloyd (aka Jah
Lion) and Jah Woosh.

This RLS is from a radio Show in Memory of Bim Sherman
