THE RAELETTES
(Redirected from Raelettes)
The 'Raelettes' were a girl group in the 1950s, 1960s 1970s, and 1980s, formed, as their name suggests, to provide backing vocals for Ray Charles. Its membership originally consisted of Ethel 'Earl-Jean' McCrea, Margie Hendricks, Patricia Lyles, and Gwendolyn Berry. Later members included Mable John and Susaye Greene. The 1980's set of Raelettes included Avis Harrell, Madlyne Qubeck, Estella Yarobourgh, Trudy Cohran, and Pat Peterson: they recorded with Charles and featured in one of his biggest concerts not long before his death. The concert featured the Edmonton Symphony Orchestra and was televised on KCET Television in Canada.
Although they were never famed for their singles, they had a number of pop and R&B hits and several have gone on to promising solo careers.
