Originally, the Symphonettes, the group consisted of sisters Candy and Suzanne Nelson and their friend Jeanette Johnson. The 81 written by Kenny Gamble and Jerry Ross was their best seller. A follow up record Soldier Baby (Of Mine) by Phil Spector didn’t do well due to the politics of the time.
The group moved to Sceptre Records in 1965 with the writing team of Joshie Jo Armstead, Nick Ashford and Valerie Simpson. They never really achieved the chart success that perhaps records like Mr. Creator and Out In The Streets Again might have deserved.
