Her first solo hit was the song "Put a Little Love In Your Heart", which gained chart success on the Country Top 30 in 1970. In late 1970 to 1970, she got her biggest hit "Willy Jones". Other songs that became big hits around this time were "LA International Airport", "Pitty, Pitty Patter" and "I've Got a Happy Heart". Most of Raye's songs were very happy and light-hearted material.
