One of the greatest soloists of all time, bar none! I don't understand why she never got the proper respect she deserved. I'm a 70-80's kid and it wasn't a party unless Gwen was playing. Ya feel me?
Real facts as a little kid in the hood at cookouts and party's in family reunions it's a real crime that she's not talked about and up there with the star Legend's she was the one!!!💪🏾💪🏾❤️❤️❤️💯🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹💎💎👑
@@silverioford5667 No? So she is a Heavy Metal singer then! My mistake. 🙋🏻♂️ ... Seriously, she is a Soul and R&B singer and background singer (a few dance pop so too). End of story. 🤦🏻

Gwen Guthrie won lots of HS Talent shows . Oh by the way she was an East Orange High School Graduate in 1967 . Her Brother Carl Guthrie Esquire is an Entertainment Lawyer and a very Talented Key board player.
Was 11 years old and my cousin sat me down and told me to listen to this Every time it’s played I just get goose bumps and in turn any young family members I make sure they get a taste of the old classics
My first time at the Paradise Garage Larry Levan played this through the night & the beat & that vocal stayed with me through the years, my brain injury & two weeks in a coma
i heard this bassline many, many years ago and never found out what it was, to say its distinctive is a massive understatement, I finally found out in a tribute show to the great Robbie Shakespeare, a bassline that is heard in one dacade for just 3 mins and instantly recognised amongst the noise of modern life the next is a thing of magic genius.. RIP this bass legend of the finest calibre...
mwizard45 Yikes.. a very difficult question as there are so many bass legends all amazing at what they do or did (Miller, Burke, Adams etc). If I was forced to choose.. then it would probably have to be Larry G who pioneered the slap. I've witnessed him live and I've never known anything like it in my life. I just hope I get a chance to witness some of the others in the near future. To throw an impossible question back, who is yours? ;)
What a great disco cut I remember dancing all night at club Zanzibar in newark with Tony humphreys mixing the hell out of this dancing all night those were the days
...This song brings back so many memories! This got everyone on the dance floor at the club! This jam has definitely stood the test of time! R.I.P. Gwen Guthrie!
This is the jam and always will be the jam. This is definitely Grown Folks Music. RIP to Ms. Gwen Guthrie Gone but never ever will be forgotten. And her Jams will live on forever.
Oh how we lusted after the 12 inch back at the days! At the record store at 6 in the morning saving all the pennies we could to buy this bit of heaven!! Such happy memories. And it has truely stood the test of time. Decades on, this track still holds it's own!
ABSOLUTELY!!! I remember my girl and I and our friends would go to the Garage on Friday nights! We’d get there at 1AM and dance to Larry Levan. You could even bring a backpack without it being checked. WHY? The Garage was about music and dancing! NOBODY was shooting or fighting. I’d chill in the movie room, you could smoke a joint in there. Fun times! Rest well Gwen Guthrie. Miss the NYC music scene, WBLS, Frankie Crocker in the mid 80’s!!!
I cry when I hear this and remember how young I was and fresh the world seemed and how this track took me to another level,I danced,I expressed my soul to this tune,oh where has the time gone 😢😪....ill be playing this at my 50th in 32dayz,bless all those in Manchester who know,and if u don't know u betta getz to know........
My💩!!!! to my family in New York City, Stand -Up! wonderful memories, when I used to come visit you! California Love; you schooled me for sure. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
From my 15 year old self til now I always thought she said run my feelings up the wall me thinking that she was so happy but I looked it up and it said from my feelings I go on; wow who would have thought!
i'm speachless when ever i could dancing to it in a club in berlin... perfect voice and music to dance 2 it yeah love it have it on the padlock album which i own 2 times

Gwen Guthrie was one of the most underrated (female) soul singer of the 80's.
Absolutely!!
Underrated singer? yes she is
Gwen is NOT a "Soul Singer"

One of the greatest songs ever recorded, and I'm not playing either! Gwen was ridiculously talented!
Cooking a dinner to this type of vibe 🔥
Can I get a plate? 😊
Gwen Guthrie is a all time Classic Favorite. Shame she didn't get the credit she deserve for being a real live funky vocalist. Cause she was so Dope
She started it all.

YES!Multi talented singer, song writer &producer!
Was 11 years old and my cousin sat me down and told me to listen to this
Every time it’s played I just get goose bumps and in turn any young family members I make sure they get a taste of the old classics
Gwen Guthrie was a seriously underrated singer. I love all of her music, especially Padlock!
Biggie Smalls "friend of mine". Have u heard it ?
The introduction!!!!! We were jamming before her vocals hit!!! I love the music of my era!!❤
That bass line intro SLAYS it!!
Insane! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
The synth even more
the bass line, the drum track, the vocals
My first time at the Paradise Garage Larry Levan played this through the night & the beat & that vocal stayed with me through the years, my brain injury & two weeks in a coma
I use to jam with my mom when this was playing on the record player...I was like 3 or 4. I'm still jammin at 40
R.I.E.P. Gwen, Robbie, Larry. Thanks for the music 🎶 and the memories...
damn for real. 😢
RIP Queen. Your time on this earth was not in vain.
I've checked in the Wikipedia, she's still with us at her 80th
@@malcolmgeorge1180 bro she’s been dead for 25 years
Gwen Guthrie + Larry Levan + Sly & Robbie. Impossible that this could be anything other than awesome.
You can't deny that bass hook. AWESOME.
Tribeca Nyc the bass is the hook
You had to party hard Browns guest house
FACTS !!! {•∆•}
i heard this bassline many, many years ago and never found out what it was, to say its distinctive is a massive understatement, I finally found out in a tribute show to the great Robbie Shakespeare, a bassline that is heard in one dacade for just 3 mins and instantly recognised amongst the noise of modern life the next is a thing of magic genius..

👍👍👍
What's the title of the Tribute show, please! ❤🎉
That Bass Line is Wicked!!!
mwizard45 agreed!
I'm glad you agree. The bass line for Tom Browne's "Jamaica Funk" is also wicked. If you haven't heard it check it out.
mwizard45 lol I've heard it :)
So who is your most favorite Bassist/Vocalist?
mwizard45 Yikes.. a very difficult question as there are so many bass legends all amazing at what they do or did (Miller, Burke, Adams etc). If I was forced to choose.. then it would probably have to be Larry G who pioneered the slap. I've witnessed him live and I've never known anything like it in my life.

Still playing this in 2020, Sly & Robbie absolutely nailed it with that bassline
wow, did not know this.. all their work is 🔥🔥, thank you!
Vocal of Gwen Guthrie is amazing, this is one of favorite songs of all time. Long Live the classic r&b of the 80’s
Sick tune. That bassline is ON. Larry new what it felt like to be on a dancefloor.
With the GREATEST drum and bass combination......Sly & Robbie you heeeeeear!
Man I remember hearing this in a master mix WBLS with the Chief Rocker Frankie Crocker
RISE KING100%

That's Newark NJ's own Gwen Guthrie, this song kept me on the dance floor and everytime I hear it still keeps me dancing!
My hometown is Newark. I thought she was from East Orange like Dionne Warwick.
Maybe true, but NYC took that song to another level roxys fever All rocked that song in the clubs
One of my favorite. Jersey...REST IN HEAVEN GWEN.
New Jersey, New York, New Jersey...back & forth, both are my homes and always will be !
Newark born…Harlem bred 😂😂

From my 15 year old self til now I always thought she said run my feelings up the wall me thinking that she was so happy but I looked it up and it said from my feelings I go on; wow who would have thought!
Two musical geniuses, Levan and Guthrie, can’t go wrong
Four, your forgot the Jamaican dynamic duo Sly And Robbie!!!!
Gwen sang backing on Madonna's 'Borderline' and 'Lucky Star' also on The Limit 'Say Yeah'.
What a groove! RIP, Larry...

Absolutely love all the lder songs you can't beat them ,brilliant bring them back please
Rip she wasa legend.
outstanding voice and music
The 80's one of the best Era's where real singers had no need to disguise voice behind Auto-Tunes.
+Reg Thomas well said ;)
+Reg Thomas Ironic because Zapp had a similar technique to autotune with the talkbox but they made it sound funky, harmonic, and beautiful!
woooooooord
+Spanishdog17 yeah but that was creative. music was better arranged thats the key not a beat or tra k arranged music
the best of time ( never again )
I have a friend who is closer than a brother and.....PROTECTS me!!!!!😭😭😭😭😭🔥🔥🔥🔥🥰🤗🤗🤗
