Doctor Bird

Doctor Bird is a music label that was founded in the UK by Graeme Goodall, an Australian sound engineer and original shareholder of Island Records. The label was revived by Trojan Records in 1970 for three releases before being relaunched in 2017 as a division of Cherry Red Records. Doctor Bird specializes in vintage Jamaican sounds licensed from the catalogue of Trojan Records.
Graeme Goodall played a significant role in the Jamaican music scene, engineering sessions at various studios and producing countless recordings during the ska era. He also formed other labels such as Pyramid Records and Attack to promote reggae music. Despite relocating to Atlanta, Georgia in the 1970s, Goodall continued his involvement with music until his passing in 2014.
Today, Doctor Bird continues to bring Jamaican rocksteady and other vintage sounds to music enthusiasts worldwide through their curated selection of releases. With its rich history and dedication to preserving iconic Jamaican music, Doctor Bird remains a respected authority on this genre.

Most readily identified for his superior soulful reggae works, Lloyd Charmers was in fact one of Jamaica’s most bold and resourceful record producers, never averse to taking on new challenges and testing his musical talent to the limit.

The most apparent evidence of his innovative and imaginative approach to music-making is Peace And Love, an album comprising four Rasta flavoured extended mixes that beautifully mix the nyabinghi drumming and chanting of The Sons of Negus’ legend, Ras Michael with the sophisticated yet sympathetic musicianship of some of Jamaica’s most accomplished session-players, led by Charmers himself and guitar maestro, Willie Lindo.

Originally released in both Jamaica and the UK in 1974, this sublime, mesmeric and at times semi-psychedelic collection is today widely regarded as one of the most significant and accomplished albums to see issue during reggae’s golden age.

Its long overdue re-issue on CD here is further enhanced by a second disc that collects the best of Lloyd Charmers’s dub output from the mid-70s, with the selection including mixes of some of the biggest reggae hits of the period, notably ‘Fire Burning’, ‘You Make Me Feel Brand New’, ‘I’m Still Waiting’, ‘Let Go’ and ‘Walk Away From Love’. Includes 19 tracks new to CD!
