RING THE alarm, Tenor Saw is coming. Although this month marks 20 years since his death, the legacy of Clive Bright, one of dancehall’s most influential and unique singers, lives on.
Tenor Saw’s death was mysterious. In 1988, the 22-year-old’s decomposing body was found in bushes near a road in Houston, Texas. One version is that he was shot; another was that he was the victim of a hit-and-run driver. But his mentor, singer/producer Lincoln ‘Sugar’ Minott, said he really died of pneumonia.
