Harry Belafonte, aged 96.

As a boy, he was simply the voice of Christmas in my parents house on a crackly old vinyl. As an adult I realised what a great force he was as an activist. I'm a heavy metal guy and people are always surprised to find Belafonte records in my collection. I'll be spinning some tonight!

Island in The Sun was one of the songs we played at my Dad's funeral around this time last year.

That was a sad one alright- while he didn't write the Banana Boat Song, I'm guessing it's because of him everyone knows it.
