  • Reggae Artiste J.C. Lodge emerged at the start of the 1980s and became one of the leading female vocalists of her era. She would also end that decade on a high with her smash hit Telephone Love. But after a amazing run she would drop out of sight. This video traces the career and journey of this songbird

    June Lodge had a most beautiful voice and the song 'Someone Loves You' was a hit even in Holland. It's good to see her again! Jah bless!!!

    I met her once in a patty shop in Jamaica queens and was rendered speechless. I couldn’t believe the impact she still had on me. She was so nice about, she realized right away that I was frozen in awe of her and proceeded to be completely human. I was 12 years old when I became a fan and still is to this day I’m 50 now.

      Really?😳 I've always thought Since You Came Into My Life was a duet with Dennis Brown..Or Perhaps she had separate versions with Sugar and Dennis???..🤔

    I've been quite familiar with the June Lodge story ( Glad she changed her stage name to JC LODGE. It sounds much more HIP). Frankly speaking, JC was the leading reggae songstress from the mid 80s into the 90s with the remarkable consistency of her releases. She blew my mind with Telephone ❤..But Someone loves you Baby was my introduction to her music around 85.. Probably my most memorable JC Lodge song. I guess I was 5 years late 😂😂😂

    Soon as it was taco time I knew RAS had a new one out and this video inspired my new creation , yogurt salsa lol. Like June, I'm mixed race, European and Indian American so it seemed fitting to put the red American peppers with European yogurt. I think I'll name it June sauce 😊and will perfect it. Thanks again and Jah bless

      Big up mi brethren ✌️ Let me guess...do you have have Sioux heritage?

    • @Infinitebrandon
      @Infinitebrandon 22 дні тому +3

      @ReggaeAppreciationSociety unfortunately no. I'm Modoc, Yaqui and Luiseno. I've understood there are 3 types of Indians, anasazi like the Yaqui and Modoc claim to have always been here and we have the same DNA even as the Inca all the way to the south so maybe I am related to the Sioux too.
      Archeologist are finding more evidence lately that we've been here much longer than previously thought. Then there are the Indians that came over the ice bridge in Alaska and migrated south. The last wave lingered up north I guess and only came down south in the 1500s, same time the Spanish arrived; that's the athabascan tribes like the navajo and the apache.
      We 3 have different DNA but inter tribal marriage is a good idea lol and I'm of the 1st and 2nd wave. Anyway mi bredrin, I was so inspired to learn of miss June and my new recipe is already a hit. Blessings to you again 🙏

    Had no idea who she was till you mentioned the songs “ somebody loves you Honey” and “ Telephone love “. I grew up on both songs. My parents use to play “ Somebody loves you Honey “ on those long car rides from NY to Toronto and as I got older “ Telephone Love “ was all over the Radio in NY state. Every West Indian party had her music on at some point. Great video as usual and informative

      Gibbs was taking a massive gamble and must have been either foolishly overconfident or just downright INSANE.....But at least there was a beneficiary to all this. It raised Charlie Pride's international profile among audiences who wouldn't have known this song was penned by a Great Country Music artist..One of THE GREATS in fact..😁😁

    J.C. Lodge Telephone love was massive and funny enough for she was the first lady sound into the other phases of Dancehall rising up in the late 80's, early 90's and after that Diana King was killing it internationally, but in the long run especially hearing her story I'll stick with J.C. Lodge and for other reasons I won't expose in here about losing my respect for Diana King
