Patti Smith is an American rock musician, born on December 30, 1946 in Chicago, Illinois, USA. She was inducted into the Rock And Roll Hall of Fame in 2007 as a performer. Patti is known for her influential contributions to the music industry.
She is the sister of a renowned artist and was married to another notable figure from 1980 until his death in 1994. Patti is also a mother to two talented individuals who have made their mark in their respective fields.
In addition to her musical career, Patti previously worked in a toy factory before dedicating herself fully to her passion for music. Her diverse experiences have shaped her unique perspective and artistic style.

'Easter' is the first record Patti Smith recorded after the year-and-a-half break that was caused by her fall from a stage in January 1977. The album is produced by Bruce Springsteen associate Jimmy Lovine and was Smith's most commercial-sounding effort yet and, due to the inclusion of Springsteen's 'Because The Night' (with Smith's revised lyrics), a top ten hit. 'Easter' incorporated a diversity of musical styles, including classic rock and roll, folk, spoken word and pop music. 'Easter' turned out to be the best compromise smith achieved between her artistic and commercial aspirations. Obviously she had learned to use her poetic gifts within an album rock context.LP - 180 Gram Vinyl.
