Dean - Hit Recording Artist
- Biography
During the 80's Hazell Dean scored 10 major
chart hits in the UK, she had her first hit in
1984, though she started her singing career in
the 70's. She released a number of singles as
the Hazell Dean Orchestra but without any
success. Hazell moved from soul music to dance
music and in February 1984 she entered the UK
top 75 with the AA side Evergreen/Jealous Love
and later that year she released Searchin' which
spent 15 weeks in the chart and reached no. 6 in
the pop charts. Hazell Dean has the accolade of
being the first Stock/Aitken/Waterman artist to
make the top ten when her single Whatever I Do,
Wherever I Go reached no. 4. Hazell released her
first album Heart First in 1985. Which also
spawned the singles Back in my Arms, Harmony and
No Fool (For Love).
Despite being in the SAW fold Hazell’s next few
singles failed to make an impact on the charts,
until the Hit Factory as SAW became known as
became the biggest name in pop, they produced
Hazell’s second album Always and scored 3 hit
singles Who's Leaving Who (No. 4) Maybe (we
should call it a day) (no. 15) and Turn It Into
Love (no.21)
Hazell left the Hit factory in 1991 after the
release of her single Better Off Without You in
favour of a new dance sound she finally released
her badly named 3rd Album The Best of Hazell
Dean, which contained 5 hits and 11 new tracks.
In 1996 she released album of ABBA covers The
Winner Takes it All and the title track had
minor chart success. Searchin' 97 also grazed
the charts, the classic single had been remixed
to the full by Over 18 and Jock in a Box and
made it an anthem in the gay clubs all over
again.
More recently Hazell has recorded Sisters are
doin' it for themselves as a duet with American
popstress Marina. She has also made a number of
appearances at gay venues throughout London.
