Chanteuse Country US née le 8 Octobre 1944 à Eugene (Oregon).
Best known
for her work in conjunction with mentor Buck
Owens, singer Susan Raye was born October 8, 1944, in Eugene, OR. She first
began singing with a high-school rock group, but after the band called it quits,
she auditioned for a local country station. Not only did she begin performing on
the radio, she also landed work as a disc jockey, eventually becoming the host
of a Portland TV program called Hoedown.
It was at one of Raye's performances at an area nightclub where she met Jack
McFadden, Owens'
manager. McFadden was so impressed with her vocal talents that he persuaded Owens to
fly her to his home in Bakersfield, CA, for an audition. Owens immediately
offered Raye a slot on an upcoming tour, and in 1969, she cut her first record,
"Maybe If I Close My Eyes (It'll Go Away)." Her next record, a cover of Jackie
DeShannon's pop smash "Put a Little Love in Your Heart," was also her first
Top 30 hit. At about the same time, she began a nine-year stint as a featured
performer on the program Hee Haw.
Raye issued her first solo LP, One Night Stand, in 1970; the single "Willy
Jones" became her first Top Ten hit, lending its name to the title of her follow-up
album the next year. Also in 1970, she released two duet records with Owens, We're
Gonna Get Together and The Great White Horse. Her biggest year as a solo artist
came in 1971, when she issued three consecutive Top Ten hits -- "L.A.
International Airport," "Pitty, Pitty, Patter," and "(I've Got A) Happy Heart."
The title track of 1972's My Heart Has a Mind of Its Own also reached the Top
Ten.
After hitting number nine in 1974 with "Whatcha Gonna Do With a Dog Like That"
and scoring a success with Owens on
a cover of the Mickey
& Sylvia classic "Love Is Strange," Raye's hitmaking days were largely over;
after issuing the 1976 LP Honey, Toast and Sunshine, she left Owens'
tutelage to release a self-titled album in 1977. A year later, she retired in
order to raise her six kids and returned to college to pursue a degree in
psychology. In 1985, she came out of exile to release the album Susan Raye:
There and Back, which generated the minor hit single "I Just Can't Take the
Leaving Anymore."
