The Detroit garage band the Pleasure Seekers originally comprised sisters <a href="spotify:artist:15jHZ1EZwmm2QDjKctvqJQ">Suzi</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:3FWMtV2YxyQmjRDpMpfIPP">Patti</a>, and Arlene Quatro, the daughters of jazz musician Art Quatro. The group started while the siblings were all still in their teens. They quickly transcended novelty status by writing their own material and playing their own instruments, and made their debut in 1966 with the local hit "Never Thought You'd Leave Me," released on the <a href="spotify:search:label%3A%22Hideout%22">Hideout</a> label (the recording arm of the local teen club where <a href="spotify:artist:15jHZ1EZwmm2QDjKctvqJQ">Suzi</a> reportedly worked as a counter clerk). A year later they jumped to <a href="spotify:search:label%3A%22Mercury%22">Mercury</a> for "Light of Love." Eldest sister Arlene soon exited the Pleasure Seekers to begin a family -- among her children was actress Sherilyn Fenn, best known for her work in the TV cult series Twin Peaks -- and was replaced by another Quatro sister, <a href="spotify:artist:28NHSpslAd5DNz0nEbv5BT">Nancy</a>. Throughout the remainder of the decade the band toured relentlessly, even appearing at a USO showcase at the peak of the Vietnam War, but mainstream success continued to elude them. Around 1969, the Pleasure Seekers rechristened themselves Cradle, a move which also heralded a harder-edged sound; by the early '70s, however, the trio disbanded, with <a href="spotify:artist:15jHZ1EZwmm2QDjKctvqJQ">Suzi</a> going on to fame as a solo performer (as well as co-starring on the hit sitcom Happy Days as the legendary Leather Tuscadero) while <a href="spotify:artist:3FWMtV2YxyQmjRDpMpfIPP">Patti</a> joined the California band <a href="spotify:artist:1Pag7p4HbSdZIDzgNLsk39">Fanny</a>. In 2016, <a href="spotify:search:label%3A%22Sundazed%22">Sundazed</a> released a collection of their classic recordings, What a Way to Die. ~ Jason Ankeny, Rovi
