Gregory Isaacs, known for his world-acclaimed song, 'Night Nurse's, got married to June, his lovely wife, in 1983, same year he was arrested for possession of firearms.
At the time, Isaacs had just released his commercially successful Night Nurse album. Even though his incarceration meant that he was initially unable to promote the album, Night Nurse hit No. 32 on the UK Albums Chart in September 1983 and was certified Silver in the country, almost 40 years later.
Read what his wife remembers about him:
“Gregory was very classy. He loved fine suits. Most of the suits he wore were bought in designer stores in London. He loved getting dressed. He would tell me, 'mummy step out like a millionaire …even if you’re going to the market’….I still do that up to this day…
“He was always dapper, he had hats and suits like no one. I still have some. My favorite is seeing him in full suit of white with his hat leaned to one side smiling with a little of his gold teeth showing.”
Born on July 15, 1951, Gregory Isaacs passed on October 25, 2010.
