Bettye Crutcher was not the first female song writer at Stax – Carla Thomas and Deanie Parker, for example, beat her to that particular punch – but she may well be the most commercially successful of all the Memphis label’s female tunesmiths, if only for her participation in the composition of Johnnie Taylor’s ‘Who’s Making Love’, one of the company’s biggest hits.
