Music of the Rumors:

Note the Rumors was one of the best groups I have had the privilege of performing with, and for several years, I might add. I decided to post some of the recorded songs and medleys comprised of music popular during the 70's, and grooves still played today in more modern music. I hope you will enjoy them as much as we did.
