Gwen Guthrie! (LJ Hosts)

Gwen Guthrie - Portrait

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?
