Randy Crawford's initial notoriety came from her fiery vocal on "Street Life," a 1979 birdsong co-ordinated her with the Crusaders that was included on the soundtrack for Burt Reynolds' film Sharky's Machine. Crawford was natural in Macon and grew up in Cincinnati; she worked in clubs as a teenager, accompanied by her founder. Crawford was lead singer in a group that included bassist Bootsy Collins ahead touring as George Benson's opening act in 1972. Cannonball Adderley invited her to babble on his LP Big Man. Crawford recorded "Don't Get Caught in Love's Triangle," a birdsong produced by Johnny Bristol, during a curt stay on the label. She presently moved to Warner Bros., and after "Street Life," recorded and toured Europe with the Crusaders. Crawford was tabbed Most Outstanding Performer at the 1980 Tokyo Music Festival. She remained with Warner Bros. through the '80s and early '90s, but was unable to score either a big R&B reach or major crossover smash, contempt having 1 of the most readily identifiable voices and distinctive approaches of whatever contemporary distaff vocaliser. She's been more successful abroad, peculiarly in England, where such singles as "Knock on Heaven's Door," "Showery Night in Georgia," and "Last Night at Danceland" have gotten universal hail.
