This article contains a detailed discography of American country pop music singer, Patsy Cline.
Patsy Cline began performing in her Baptist church choir until she was 13 years old, and suffered rheumatic fever. Soon afterward, she discovered her singing abiltity and began singing in bars and night clubs, until she was eventually signed to Four Star Records in 1954, recording her first singles off the label the next year. She did not have success until performing "Walkin' After Midnight" on Arthur Godfrey's Talent Scouts television program in 1957. [1] The song was recorded and released as a single, becoming a Top 5 country hit and Top 20 Pop hit, propelling Cline to stardrom. She could not follow-up the single with another hit, partly due to a deal with her record company that limited her songs from only one publishing company. In 1960, she signed with Decca Records, who helped Cline record material that brought her vocal style into a more-suitable country-pop range. [2] Cline achieved her biggest success under Decca, recording three major Country-pop crossover hits with "I Fall to Pieces," "Crazy," and "She's Got You," and recorded three studio albums.[1] However, in 1963 her career was cut short just after entering her peak, when the plane she was riding in, crashed in Camden, Tennessee.
However, Cline has remained more popular in death, than she was in life. Her record company, Decca (which was later changed to MCA in 1973), has released many compilation albums. Her record sales increased following her death, acquiring seven RIAA-certified albums. Her 1967 Greatest Hits album has been the longest-running album on the Billboard charts by any female artist, since its release. In 2005, it achieved a sales of 10 million copies in the United States.
