Absolutely THE GREATEST - DAMN, listen to the complexity of these vocals - I'm getting chills. Best vocal group EVER. EVER. Fifth Dimension, Carpenters, Mamas & the Papas I LOVE...but the MT was the best.

My God, thier harmonies are just sick!! Thier voices are amazing, and this is one of the best songs I've heard from them. Anyone know where I could find their version of "Last Time I Saw Janeen"? I saw live footage of them at the Jazz At Newport festival, and I can't find it anywhere.

Perfection, vocal gods and godesses. Sends chills up and down the spine.

Have seen them live several times and they never disappoint. ....and Yaron Gershovsky is also a great musician and arranger.

Does anyone notice that even live they still NAIL it!!! Manhattan Transfer was great.....pure talent!

[marct1234]

Phenomenal performance, phenomenal group.

@Wolfsky9 Cheryl wrote this? It's not enough that she can replicate Miles Davis' trumpet with her voice? Holy cow! Am such a CB fan.,..

[murphstrings]

To Black bear! Janine can be found on Bop do Wop. It's a live cut from a fm radio thing in japan. I saw that tour, caught them in buffalo. I too searched for Janine a long time. There is also a live cd called Man Tra from that tour.

Great song, and a good video. I'm not even sure how I stumbled across this tonight, but boy it brought back a lot of great memories. Going to have to go digging through my cd collection now for this one.

No one--but no one could do this like The Transfer. Musical, vocal genius, written by Cheryl . I saw them in this Tour, & ohh my, they were outrageous!. Wolfsky9
