CAREER OF PATTY LOVELESS

Growing up listening to the music of the Grand Ole Opry in both Pikeville and then Louisville, Roger had moved to Nashville in 1970 and became a producer with The Porter Wagoner Show.

Upon their arrival in Nashville, Roger walked into Porter Wagoner’s office without an appointment and managed to introduce his sister to Wagoner. He managed to convince Wagoner to listen to his sister sing, and she performed a song she wrote for their father, John, called Sounds of Loneliness. To their surprise, Wagoner slapped his hand on his desk and said he was going to help her.

 

Wagoner introduced them to his singing partner at the time, Dolly Parton, and encouraged her to return home and complete her education, although he invited her to travel with him and Dolly Parton on weekends. end during the summer.

After graduating from Fairdale High School in Louisville, Kentucky, in 1975, Patty Ramey became a full-time member of Wilburn Brother’s band as lead vocalist. She met Wilburn’s new drummer, Terry Lovelace, from a small western North Carolina town of Kings Mountain, and shared a lot in common with Loveless.

At first, Patty kept her friendship and growing relationship with Lovelace a secret from the Wilburns. However, eventually Doyle Wilburn found out and asked Patty to break it. However, Ramey, being the rebellious teenager, instead leaves the Wilburns and goes with her boyfriend to western North Carolina.

In North Carolina, Patty and her husband Terry played in a circuit of small bars and concert halls. She sang covers of rock songs from the late 70s, with tunes by Linda Ronstadt and Bonnie Raitt, with occasional country songs. (After her marriage, she adopted the professional name, Patty Loveless, so as not to establish a connection with adult film actress Linda Lovelace.

Loveless and her husband eventually divorced out of court in 1986. She contacted her brother Roger to help her move back to Nashville. After being in the rock ‘n’ roll scene for so long, she felt completely out of the country music loop, but wanted to sing country music again. Roger helped his sister cut a five-song demo tape, one of which was an early snippet of her self-penned song “I Did,” which she first wrote as a teenager and then included in his first album. Roger Ramey then began to make his talent known.

After Roger successfully signed Loveless to MCA, Tony Brown brought in one of his top producers, Emory Gordy Jr., to help develop Loveless for MCA. Together they produced a series of songs for her, all of which were played on radio stations with varying degrees of success. MCA released their debut single, Lonely Days, Lonely Nights on December 7, 1985, charting on the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart for 8 weeks, peaking at #46 on January 25, 1986.

After leaving Sony Nashville, in 2006 Loveless sang a duet with Bob Seger on his album Face the Promise, also collaborating with Solomon Burke on his Nashville album and performing a duet, “Out of My Mind,” with Vince Gill on his album These Days. It was their first recorded duet since “My Kind of Woman, My Kind of Man,” which they recorded in 1998.

She took a two-year sabbatical after touring in 2006 and 2007 to heal from the loss of her mother and stepmother and enjoy a home life with her husband Emory Gordy, Jr., even though she and Gordy performed several times at the Grand Ole Opry and made a few appearances on other shows. In 2007, Loveless was also a judge for the 6th Annual Independent Music Awards to support the careers of independent artists. Loveless was inducted into the Kentucky Music Hall of Fame on April 7, 2011.
