Biography

Girl of a musician of Jazz, as of her eight years it types on Bongos in the Jazz-band of her father. At that time its entourage already regards it as a real tomboy. Its revelation for the music comes to him afterwards at 14 years to a concert from the Beatles.

It begins its career with the the United States today with her sisters while assembling entirely female the rock'n'roll group The Pleasure Seekers which will leave only two 45 turns, very required. Renamed Cradle , the music of the group evolves to the hard rock.

The British producer Mickie Most locates it in 1971 with his aggressive scenic attitude and his look very out of leather. He persuades it to settle in England, where he makes it sign in his label RAK .

Taken in hands by the type-setter-producers Mike Chapman and Nicky Chinn, (persons in charge of principal successes of The Sweet), she will know glory until the end of the years 1970 in a certain number of countries with individual heavy-rock'n'roll such as Can the Can and 48 Crash landing (1973) or Devil Gate Drive (1974). It will on the whole classify 16 titles in the British hit-parades.

From 1975, the Glam rock'n'roll having passed from mode, its music becomes more aggressive ( Your Mamma won' T like me , 1976), then commercial and loses its substance. Unequal albums are born, but all have warm welcome.

Its only large success with the the United States will be Stumblin' In in duet with Chris Norman in 1979. This title will be connected with its last tube, " She' S in coils with you " (1979). Its only album solo of the years 1980 is Main Attraction , and will be a failure in spite of its qualities. It puts its career of singer of rock'n'roll on side in 1983 àpres the birth of its first child.

It launches out in a career of singer of musical comedies, actress then stimulating radio. She played the part of Leather Tuscadero in the series TV the happy Days (Happy Days) and always currently animates a musical program on the radio BBC Radio operator 2. The last albums in date are Oh Suzi Q (1991), which met a small success in Germany, What Goes around (1996, except 1995 in Australia), disastrous re-recordings of its tubes with four new titles, and Unrelessed Emotions (1998), late publication of the album recorded in 1983. With a new album published about March 2006 February, Suzi Quatro takes again the way of the scene that it forever really left. There remain still two new albums which are never appeared.

It influenced much the society women of the rock'n'roll, of which Joan Jett which admitted having taken it for model. Indeed Suzi Quatro is one of the first rockeuses women aggressive. It was also the rare woman in the world of the Glam rock'n'roll.
