Jimmy Cliff, reggae giant and star of the landmark film ‘The Harder They Come,’ dies at 81.
From @AssociatedPress: "Cliff was a native Jamaican with a spirited tenor and a gift for catchphrases and topical lyrics who joined Kingston’s emerging music scene in his teens and helped lead a movement in the 1960s that included such future stars as Bob Marley, Toots Hibbert and Peter Tosh."

È morto #JimmyCliff all'età di 81 anni. Una volta l'ho visto dal vivo, su un bel palco in una improbabile e fallimentare serata #reggae tenutasi presso il campo di calcio di Maccarese, sulla strada verso Fregene.

So as sure as the sun will shine
I'm gonna get my share now, what's mine
And then the harder they come
The harder they fall, one and all
