Patti LaBelle enjoyed the biggest hit of her solo career when she switched labels from
Philadelphia International to
MCA. None of her albums had consistently clicked since she'd gone solo in 1977, but
LaBelle's 1986
MCA debut topped the
pop album charts, anchored by the huge hit
"On My Own." The duet with
Michael McDonald dominated both the
pop and
R&B scenes, staying atop the
R&B charts for four weeks and giving
LaBelle her first number one
pop single as a solo artist. She even earned a second Top 40 hit with
"Oh, People," even though there was another fine single on the LP,
"Kiss Away the Pain," that was ignored. Still, this album gave
LaBelle the elusive solo stardom she'd sought since 1977.
