Nicky Thomas was born Cecil Nicholas Thomas in Portland, Jamaica, in 1949.
His first hit in the islands was "Run Nigel Run," produced by Derrick Harriot in 1969, but Thomas' most successful songs were recorded with producer Joe Gibbs, including the wonderful "Love of the Common People," which rode its reggae-pop sound into the U.K.
