Former Ikette is a true Soul survivor. Now with a new autobiography of the same name just published, London's First Lady of Soul has had a very interesting life to tell. 

After experiencing racism and sexual exploitation throughout her early career and in her personal life, P.P. decided to turn her back on her American life to move to join the 'Swinging 60's' jet set life in London after supporting the Rolling Stones on a UK tour. A decision that she never looked back on. 

In this podcast, P.P. talks about her friendship with Mick Jagger and Steve Marriott of the Small Faces - the latter of which she describes as her true soul brother. 

Pat also talks candidly of her collaboration with Bee Gee Barry Gibb which was frowned upon by Robert Stigwood.

To read more about P.P.'s amazing life, read her new book Soul Survivor: The Autobiography (published in hardback, audio, and eBook. Available online or through all good bookstores). Or visit her website at www.pparnold.com
