THANK YOU so much for sharing!!! The harmonies...OMG, those HARMONIES!!!
My favorites are the "MP" chorus & the second song. I'll get flamed for this, but, I'd swear that "Dreamgirls" was based more on them than The Supremes. The one on the right reminds me so much of Deena Jones.:)

The aforementioned harmonies notwithstanding, would love to know the name of the choreographer! Simple moves=CLASS! These 3 are some of the loveliest ladies I've ever seen. Their combined presence is beyond compare! Thanks for posting!!

I..of course have the ANSWER to your question...the choreographer was CHOLLY ATKINS..he did ALL the choreography for EVERYONE at MOTOWN...then when MOTOWN went to L.A....it freed him up a bit to stage other acts..he and BERRY GORDY had a business relationship but they did not care that much for each other...so it was no problem for him to be a gun for hire...cont...

Never knew they had a version of this song, and now that I've heard it, I can honestly say I like it much more than either Donna Summer's or Richard Harris's versions.
I always felt that the Three Degrees were one of the most underrated girl groups ever.
