Melody Life produced by Coxsone Dodd, Steely, Clevie for Studio One in 1968
Melody Life Riddim – Studio One pulls together a compact Studio One selection built around Coxsone Dodd’s 1968 production, with Marcia Griffiths and Sound Dimension at the center and later versions from High Charles and the 1977 Sound Dimension cut Zion Lion. The set leans on that classic late-60s rocksteady feel, and Marcia Griffiths’ Melody Life gives it the defining vocal touch while Sound Dimension’s instrumental backing keeps the rhythm warm and steady. It’s a small, focused lineup, but it shows how deeply the Studio One groove could travel across different years and voices.
