Rumours / Telephone Love riddim

Well supported

Gussie Clarke's flagship 1988 Music Works rhythm, cut for Gregory Isaacs's "Rumours" and voiced across the Music Works Showcase '88 sessions (J.C. Lodge's "Telephone Love," Lady G's "Nuff Respect," the Mighty Diamonds' "Heavy Load," Ken Boothe's "Choice"), helping carry dancehall into US R&B radio; cataloguing of the exact rhythm name varies.
