Just seen the Gaps Hendrickson from the Selecter has passed away, he was diagnosed with cancer last year.

Was lucky enough to meet him a couple of years ago at a gig in Brighton, another big loss to the 2 Tone scene and music in general.

RIP

    That's very sad. I knew he had been ill but thought he had come through and was back working with Pauline again. Big fan of The Selecter. Saw them in '79 in Lewisham and have been looking to see them again at some point.

    Very sad news. I've only just heard about this. Seen the Selecter many times over the last 40 years and they've always been brilliant. Such a shame.

    I’m so glad I saw them for the first time a couple cf years ago, they were fantastic.
