Gwen Guthrie – Portrait
Gwen Guthrie (1950 – 1999) started in the seventies as a songwriter and doing background vocals for various artists as Roberta Flack, Madonna, Stephanie Mills, Billy Joel, Luther Vandross etc. Her first album titled ‘Gwen Guthrie’ has been released on PTG 34046.
Her second album ‘Portrait’ continues with the same dancestyle, ballads and production of Sly Dunbar & Robbie Shakespeare. Especially in the discotheques the tracks ‘Hopscotch, ‘Padlock’ & ‘Peanut Butter’ were very hot. Mainly due to the remixes of Larry Levan (the most influential and famous remixer of the 80’s). Naturally these long 12 inches mixes have been added as bonustracks!
For the first time ever now available on CD!
With three exclusive bonus-tracks!
