@TheEbonyLounge It's hard to say whether he was guilty of any crime as I don't have the facts to judge with. I do know that the very power and resonance of his voice was a threat in modern society and I can think of one artist in America who was targeted similarly. Tupac Shakur was brought up on fake sex charges and imprisoned not long before his death.

Many folks compare him to Terrence Trent D'arby but Stan has one of the purest voices ever.....

Stan Campbell gave us a timeless masterpiece. I had this album on cassette tape for many, if not all, of my college years at Berkeley. I always felt that he didn't get enough pub in the states precisely because he was a young, talented, foreign black man singing songs like Strange Fruit that resonated with your soul. I've always wished for a follow up to one of the greatest soul albums of all time. It's sad what's happened to him and his victim, but for a moment, he transcended music itself..

this guy is completely forgotten now but still one of my favorite singers of all time. and the art of writing a good, simple song vanished too. the 80's were good times.

Oh My God.... I used to love this song. This is why I love YouTube. Is there anything you cannot find on here??? Takes me back to being 18 all over again. Thanks for posting, it really made my day.

Stan Campbell, my favourite album, How heartbreaking for such a talented young man - I wish I could visit him wherever he is. Such pain & sorrow for one so gifted & handsome
