apparently its not true. thank god. according to a reggae messageboard i frequent he has a non cancerous lump on his head, and some misleading quotes attributed to the singer "stranger" cole led to the news of his death being spread. http://www.musicaloccupation.com/2011/01 /leonard-dillon-aka-the-ethiopian-has-pa ssed-away-semi-confirmed-reports/ |

Kevin, the only thing I have by the Ethiopians is the old Trojan comp. Think I'll see what else is out there. |
