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!

'Prisoner Of Love' was followed by the album 'Love Me Right', including 'Automatic' (UK Top 75, USA R&B Top 50, European Disco charts Top 30) and 'Ev'ry Little Bit' (UK Top 75).

    • Wait, Burning Man is going online-only? What does that even look like?
      You could have been forgiven for missing the announcement that actual physical Burning Man has been canceled for this year, if not next. Firstly, the nonprofit Burning Man organization, known affectionately to insiders as the Borg, posted it after 5 p.m. PT Friday. That, even in the COVID-19 era, is the traditional time to push out news when you don't want much media attention. 
      But secondly, you may have missed its cancellation because the Borg is being careful not to use the C-word. The announcement was neutrally titled "The Burning Man Multiverse in 2020." Even as it offers refunds to early ticket buyers, considers layoffs and other belt-tightening measures, and can't even commit to a physical event in 2021, the Borg is making lemonade by focusing on an online-only version of Black Rock City this coming August.    Read more...
