If your appetite for iconic images of the late, great Gregory Isaacs was only whetted by Martei Korley’s candid portait of the Cool Ruler (which accompanied Jesse Serwer’s tribute, see previous post if you haven’t heard the bad news) then bathe in the glow of these beauties of Mr. Isaacs in his prime–just posted by our cohorts over at Deadly Dragon. They come courtesy of veteran photog and all-around good guy David Corio, who among other illustrious exploits, contributed some classic shots of Shabba Ranks to the recent FADER Icon issue dedicated to the boss deejay.
