Thanks for sharing this wonderful clip with us. This is so much more classier than their dance club shows. As this video looks like professionaly done, I wonder what this filming(taping) was for. DVD, cable TV or the promotion for this club? Do you have other footages of this show? If so, what else did they sing? Sorry for asking a lot.

Thank you for this!! I'm sharing it with some of my friends on facebook who appreciate the finer things in life. You have to send me a message if you hear of any upcoming concerts for these fabulous ladies in New York or Vegas. And I hereby dub these divas "the Nth Degress", because three is not enough!!

1963 philly vocalists..... only the best.

Although the SoulTRain live version in their younger day was just total Black Female Philly Class this one is also great; Beyonce and the contemps could take a lesson from Ms Holiday and the 3 Degrees.

What an excellent, excellent version of Make it Easy on Yourself. This is beautifully done. I'd get the DVD if I could find it! Thanx for posting!
