Cause and Effect presents:
LJ hosts Cause & Effect today!
His subject for the show will be Gwen Guthrie!
Perhaps best know for her biggest song, “Ain’t Nothin’ Goin’ on But the Rent,” Gwen Guthrie had a really diverse career as a background singer, a songwriter, and as an artist in her own right.
Can you think of anyone with as varied a resume as being on albums by Madonna, Kenny Loggins, Maynard Ferguson, Aretha Franklin and Peter Tosh?
