"Stacy Lattisaw"
When she was a teenager in the early 1980s, Lattisaw had a string of Top 40 R&B hits, with several songs — "Let Me Be Your Angel," "Love on a Two Way Street" and "Miracles" — crossing over to the pop mainstream. Lattisaw recorded her first album for Cotillion Records at the age of 12 in 1979, under the direction of record producer Van McCoy. However it was not until she hooked up with Narada Michael Walden, a former drummer with the Mahavishnu Orchestra who was just beginning a career as a producer, that she became a star. Under Walden's direction, she had five hit albums between 1981 and 1986. She continued recording into the late 1980s, signing to Motown in 1986, but her audience slowly disappeared. By the early 1990s, she decided to retire from the music industry and concentrate on raising her family. However, her official website states that she is now working on a gospel CD.
