The trio also collaborated with Laura Nyro on her superb R&B-influenced album Gonna Take a Miracle. Wickham renamed the group simply LaBelle and pushed their music in a funkier, rock-oriented direction, and in the wake of their self-titled 1971 Warner Bros. The remaining trio toured the so-called chitlin circuit for the remainder of the decade before signing on with British manager Vicki Wickham in 1970. The group's Atlantic tenure was largely disappointing, however, and in 1967 Birdsong replaced Florence Ballard in the Supremes. With producer Bobby Martin at the helm, they scored a Top 20 pop and R&B hit in 1962 with the single 'I Sold My Heart to the Junkman,' and subsequently hit 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.' A year later, following the additions of vocalists Nona Hendryx and Sarah Dash, the group was rechristened the Blue Belles. 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.
