2021 expanded reissue on Doctor Bird pairing two Melodians collections: Brent Dowe's solo reggae set Build Me Up (1973--78) and the group's earlier rocksteady recordings on Pre-Meditation (1968--72), produced by Sonia Pottinger. Across 48 tracks, the comp spans the band's full High Note output, including recordings that predate their Studio One work. The Melodians are best known for "Rivers Of Babylon."
