Trevor Elliott, a music producer who had chart success during the early 1980s with singer Edi Fitzroy, died in Florida on July 5. He was 74 years old.

His family confirmed his death by posting on social media.

Elliott was an employee of the state-run Jamaica Information Service in the late 1970s when he got into music production with his Music Ambassador label. It was during that period he met Edi Fitzroy, a roots artiste who worked as an accountant with the Jamaica Broadcasting Corporation, another government organisation.
