1 "I'm 71 years old and my voice is still strong," declares a feisty Patti LaBelle. "I'm not patting myself on the back but I still make sense on stage: I'm not crazy, I can still move and...i look pretty cute." The double Grammy-winning Philadelphia-born singer then lets out a mischievous, 1 / 6

2 playful laugh. She's doing press and promotion junkets for her forthcoming concert at Wembley's SSE Arena as part of the star-studded 'Great Voices Of Soul' package scheduled for November 15th, which also features The Whispers, the S.O.S. Band, Meli'sa Morgan, ex-rose Royce singer, Gwen Dickey, Soul II Soul and Loose Ends. It's quite a line-up and represents Patti's first trip to England for a decade. Indeed, the singer admits that she's neglected the UK. "It's been too long," she says with a tinge of regret in her voice but then jokingly says her UK fans can expect "nothing but greatness. I've been singing for 52 years so you'll get music from everywhere, from all of my old albums." Certainly, Patti LaBelle, born Patricia Holt in 1944, has a lot of material to draw from. She scored her first hit back in 1963 leading the Blue Belles, a Philly-based group comprising Nona Hendryx, Sarah Dash and Cindy Birdsong. The latter left to replace Florence Ballard in The Supremes in 1967 and then in 1970, the remaining trio changed their name to Labelle, got themselves a British manager (Vicki Wickham) and morphed into a sassy, theatrical rock-soul outfit attired in space-age costumes who supported groups like The Who and the Rolling Stones. The group didn't experience any meaningful commercial success until 1974 when they scored a US chart-topper with the risqué proto-disco groove, 'Lady Marmalade' (it was also a Top 20 UK smash). In 1977, the group dissolved and all three members began solo careers. Initially signed to Epic, Patti LaBelle didn't really set the charts alight until she released 'If Only You Knew' for producers/songwriters Gamble & Huff's Philadelphia International label in A switch to MCA in 1985 resulted in a slew of big hits in that decade and the early '90s, including 'On My Own,' her classic duet with Michael McDonald. Patti won her first Grammy in 1991 for her album 'Burnin',' and her second seven years later for the long player, 'Live! For One Night Only.' She's also appeared in several movies and featured in a raft of TV shows, including most recently, 'Dancing With The Stars,' which is the US equivalent of the UK's 'Strictly Come Dancing.' Not content with that, Patti is an author of several bestselling recipe books and has even created her own brand of cooking sauces. SJF's Charles Waring recently spoke to the singer about her long and varied career... 2 / 6

3 How do UK audiences compare with US ones? Do you have to do different songs for different audiences? No, actually the same songs for the US and the UK. But I think you're more receptive over there and appreciate music more than we do over here. I think that's just the way I've always felt. And you know the history of the artist, I mean like what time I was born, who was in the nursery with me and all that jazz. You guys know everything and I appreciate that. Looking back over your long and illustrious career what's been the major highlight for you? The highlight musically was when Sarah Dash and Nona Hendryx and I performed at the Metropolitan Opera house (in New York in 1976). We were the first black women to perform 3 / 6

4 there and that was the "Wear Something Silver" event where everybody had on something silver. That was a big, big, wonderful show. We were coming flying from the ceiling. We were doing the Madonnas and Lady Gagas before they were doing it, so we were hot (laughs). Looking back at your time with Labelle, what are your most cherished memories of those days? Everything we did together. We drove from Philadelphia to Los Angeles in a station wagon because we were doing a show with the Rolling Stones, opening for them. When we got there we were all so tired and we fought in the room because somebody lied to me and said that we had an interview to do that night. I had put on all my new clothes and got dressed up for it and then Cindy (Birdsong) said "we were only joking." So then we fought and then Mick Jagger had to knock on the door to tell us to quit it. We were killing each other. (Laughs). Those were great memories and we laugh about them now because I still speak with Sarah (Dash) and Nona (Hendryx). We plan to do stuff in the future together. You reunited a few years ago, didn't you? Yes, and we plan to do something else. Is that in terms of concerts or recording or both? Both. 4 / 6
