Reggae Diva JC Lodge classic Reggae/Dancehall massive hit 'Telephone Love' - reupload with better sound quality - Major pioneer in opening up the USA to dancehall music
This is my aunt, for real...She's moved to London from Jamaica, and she's doing good. I've only met her (and Gia, my cousin) a few times, but I'm proud to say that they are family.
Whew! This takes me back! Those who are new to J.C. Lodge's music, should check out "Someone Loves You, Honey," "Give Me Your Love" (two of her hits from the '80s), and her takes on Sylvia's "Pillow Talk" and The Isley Brothers' "Between the Sheets" (on her CDs from the '90s). Her music isn't for reggae purists, but, hey, there's room in every musical genre for fusion. I love hardcore reggae & ska, too, as well as dancehall, ragga rock and reggaeton. Give June Lodge's sultry voice anytime!
In 1990s there was a show called "TROPICAL BEAT" on PBS. This video was one of the several beautiful songs they featured. I enjoy this unpretentious and harmonious song
My husband Kenny Schick played saxophone with JC in New York and Vermont in the late 90s he was just telling me about that and how super nice JC was to him - she was one of the favorite artists DUBNATION backed!
This is Classic Reggae. June Lodge's sexy, sultry voice did it for me then in the clubs of New Kingston and still does it today. Lawd, pleasant memories in JA.
I surely didn't know there was a video for this song either! I wouldn't of thought she looked like that. It's funny to see her holding that corded phone at the beach. Sign of the times I guess.
Thank you JC, this brings back so many awesome memories! I remember when this tune was big. Around that time Garnett Silk was big, Luciano was just coming up, and Capleton was hitting with consciousness. At the time I didn't like Shabba Ranks too much because he was so slack but he tore up a version on this so I had to shake my head. This tune's so catchy, few words and leaves you wanting to rewind it again.
She is in China, I'm in South Africa 🇿🇦,11,774 km apart yet the vibe n laughter we share when we talk thru the phone is exactly what described in this forever hit.We the 90's kids bumping what our parents enjoyed before we were born
The reason why she is still underrated in Jamaica, is because she do not have a hardcore following. She is too "uptown". She is a society chick as talented as she was, but some people see her as the reggae version of Shelia E or Vanity.

Vintage dancehall from the golden era of dancehall (1987-2000). This was the tune that made me fall in love with JC Lodge. Kill dem wit' it JC!

I'm 35 but I remember when my mom used to bump this in the early 90s. I miss those days! Being a kid with no worries. I miss my mom.
Oh my so nice
Haha me too 33 going on 34!
My mom is still alive. But being a kid with no worries, those were the days. Miss them miss them
My mom would play this on Saturday morning.. it was on a tape with.. I shot the sheriff and other reggae artists but I haven't been able to find it 😶
Star B aah so sweet
Great. As a West Indian woman too, give her my best wishes. She's a legend.
Why music like this , cannot comeback 😭😭
I love this songs
Reggae oldies >>>>>>>> 😩😩; God, I swear every genre of music, modern day, just isn't the same as the oldies!
agree!
+Vee Watson that b line, what a tune
I agree, don't really like the dancehall of today. Also dance music has changed
I first heard this track on a CD I bought years ago, the Greensleeves/Shanachie sampler. Still such Great Stuff.
Factualzzzz
My husband Kenny Schick played saxophone with JC in New York and Vermont in the late 90s he was just telling me about that and how super nice JC was to him - she was one of the favorite artists DUBNATION backed!

I've been mesmerized by this groove (and JC Lodge) since I first heard it at a party in Grenada (West Indies) in September 1988. Smile.
I heard it too, Trinidad
It has the same beat sample Nuff respect by Lady G
It was blasting in Trinidad, in d maxi taxis too, 🤭 transportation with serious baseline 🇹🇹
This song went HARD in the clubs! Dance floor empty. Everybody grinding against the walls. Lol
+Mike Taylor Yes i.Trouser front swell up.
Mike Taylor show me nuff respect
Mike Taylor hahahaha right
Yep
That was d day's dancehall was dancehall
The beat is wicked ❤
Luv this groove! Takes me back to September 1988 when I first heard this song at a party in Grenada.
I surely didn't know there was a video for this song either! I wouldn't of thought she looked like that. It's funny to see her holding that corded phone at the beach. Sign of the times I guess.
I remember when this came out on the streets of NY back in 1988... The 88 people who disliked this dont get any Telephone Love...

Crazy smooth. Classic. Love that green cord:)
The reason why she is still underrated in Jamaica, is because she do not have a hardcore following. She is too "uptown". She is a society chick as talented as she was, but some people see her as the reggae version of Shelia E or Vanity.

That voice, God, I'd love for her to sing on our soundtrack...I've loved this song forever...
