THE MELODIANS Schallplatten & CDs

Review: The debut album by The Melodians is a rare 1970 release that offered up the smooth, effortless vocals of the iconic Jamaican reggae supergroup which was formed by Tony Brevett, Trevor McNaughton and Brent Dowe. Focused on their collaboration with legendary producer Leslie Kong, this newly remastered album features ten of their most beloved tracks for Beverley's Records. The title track, 'Rivers of Babylon' was made famous by Boney M and was a favourite of Jimmy Cliff as well as appearing in his film The Harder They Come. This album is essential listening for early reggae lovers.
