| Description: | Deluxe re-issue of the Gwen Guthrie??s Top 20 US R&B album which spawned the dance/soul hit ??Outside In The Rain?? and a potent reading of the Bacharach-David classic, ??(They Long To Be) Close To You??.
Centred around the now-classic dance and soul anthem ??Ain??t Nothin?? Goin?? On But The Rent??, her debut album ??Good To Go Lover?? followed the song??s huge international success, a #1 US R&B and Top 50 pop hit.
Featuring four bonus tracks including the non-album B-side, ??Save Your Love For Me??, a duet with Surface.
Including notes by renowned US writer Justin Kantor with quotes from ??Pic?? Conley and musician Onaje Allen Gumbs. Already established as a songwriter of note (thanks to hits by Ben E King, Roberta Flack and Angela Bofill) and an in-demand New York City session and jingle singer, Oklahoma-born, New Jersey-raised Gwen Guthrie began her own solo recording career in 1981. Dubbed ??The First Lady Of The Paradise Garage? (the popular New York gay club) as a result of her dynamic performances at the venue, dance hits such as 1985??s ??Padlock?? and work with reggae musicians/producers Sly And Robbie helped establish Gwen as a hit-maker in her own right. - Japanese re-issue, part of Universal Japan's 'Throwback Soul Soul/Funk, classic and hard-to-find titles' campaign. 2022.Made in Japan |
