Biography
Barry White first made his mark in the music business in the 1960s as a session musician, even serving for a spell as an A&R man for a small, independent Los Angeles record label. He first hit it big in 1973 with a series of albums and singles emphasizing lush orchestrations and elaborate production values, over which he laid down his big baritone voice. In 1973 and 1974 alone, he sold $16 million worth of records, not only his own but also as conductor of instrumental records (as The Love Unlimited Orchestra) and as producer of a string of albums and singles by the female vocal trio Love Unlimited (one of whom, Glodean James, was his second wife). His peak year, 1974, saw him compose the score for Together Brothers (1974) and act in _Coonskin (1974)_ . After a particularly pronounced fallow period in the 1980s, he rebounded in the 1990s with a series of critically and commercially acclaimed records and beefed up his presence on TV somewhat, with a famous guest shot on "The Simpsons" (1989) and a series of commercials in which he parodied his image and persona.
