Biography
Soul diva Patti LaBelle enjoyed one of the longest-lived careers in contemporary music, notching hits in a variety of sounds ranging from girl group pop to space-age funk to lush ballads. Born Patricia Holt in Philadelphia on May 24, 1944, she grew up singing in a local Baptist choir, and in 1960 teamed with friend Cindy Birdsong to form a group called the Ordettes. A year later, following the additions of vocalists Nona Hendryx and Sarah Dash, the group was rechristened the Blue Belles; with producer Bobby Martin at helm, they scored a Top 20 pop and R&B hit in 1962 with the single ‘I Sold My Heart to the Junkman,’ subsequently hitting the charts in 1964 with renditions of ‘Danny Boy’ and ‘You’ll Never Walk Alone.’ In 1965, the quartet — now known as Patti LaBelle & the Bluebelles — signed to Atlantic, where they earned a minor hit with their version of the standard ‘Somewhere Over the Rainbow.’
