Jacob Miller – Rockers Who Died at Age 27
Best known as the former singer of Inner Circle, Jamaican singer Jacob Miller had the kind of voice that could effortlessly shift from smoothed-out Lovers Rock ballads to rock-infused reggae. Miller and his bandmates famously appeared in the cult classic film ‘Rockers,’ where they played a hotel house band that jams with the film's hero, Leroy "Horsemouth" Wallace. On March 23, 1980, during rehearsals for an American tour with Bob Marley, Miller was tragically killed in a car accident in Kingston, Jamaica.
