Musician Maxie Taylor has passed.

Taylor, who was a drummer with the group Ivory, is said to have suffered a heart attack.

He is the writer of two well-loved Barbadian songs Things Fall Apart and When You’re Not Around, penned when he was still a teenager.

More recently, Taylor showed a lighter side with his “Pastafarian” weather reports on Facebook.

His tongue-in-cheek forecasts, delivered in full Bajan dialect, were done with a colander on his head. (SAT)
