Overview

By the early 1980s The Three Degrees had firmly established themselves as an ever popular live attraction and favourite television guests in the UK. After their latest record label Ariola folded in 1980, the ladies found themselves without a contract but that did not discourage the ladies, Helen Scott, Sheila Ferguson and Valerie Holiday. Sheila co-wrote 'A Sonnet To Love' and naturally takes lead vocals chores on that track. Helen is given a rare and but very welcome opportunity to take a full lead on 'I Only Have Eyes For You'. All three ladies share lead on 'MacArthur Park' The latter track, together with the 'Fame Medley' had recently been performed by the group on their second television special for the BBC, 'Take 3 Degrees', which had been screened a year earlier.
