Hodges, James & Smith were originally known as Hodges, James, Smith & Crawford (former Motown artist Carolyn(Caroline)Crawford).They later became a trio..Pat Hodges, Denita James & Jessica Smith... all originating from Los Angeles. Denita James had a solo single on Flip around '63 and Pat Hodges had a solo release Keymen around '66. The group was the brainchild of William "Micky" Stevenson and they were intended to rival The Supremes which is hard to believe because H, J & S's sound was more aggressive and a lot more Soul/R&B oriented. Their first single was 'Nobody' on the Mpingo Label(previously a hit for Kim Weston on MGM). They updated it later for one of their 20th Century albums in the 70s.
