Another RIP blog entry

This isn't good--one of my last entries of the fall/winter was regarding the murder of South African reggae artist Lucky Dube (see the archive for the post + a video). This week I'm sad to report not only the death of US actor Heath Ledger (perhaps most known from Brokeback Mountain and most recently in the Todd Haines Dylan antibiopic I'm Not There), but also Belizean singer and world music star Andy Palacio.

Palacio is the lesser known of the two, but well worth a listen. This past weekend I picked up the most recent issue of Songlines magazine, which pegged his album Watina as #2 in their "Best Albums 2007" survey (you can hear samples of his work at www.myspace.com/andypalacio). His body of work, recording and otherwise, recently garnered him the honor of being named UNESCO's 40th Artist for Peace. He was only 47.
