The Three Degrees were formed in 1963 in Philadelphia. The trio were discovered by producer and songwriter Richard Barrett, who produced their first single, "Gee Baby (I'm Sorry)", a #80 hit in 1965.
When Freddie Pool joined The Three Degrees in 2011, she was their fifteenth different member. The most successful lineup from 1967 to 1976 was Fayette Pinkney, Valerie Holiday and Sheila Ferguson, with the latter singing lead.
The group appeared in the 1971 Oscar-winning movie The French Connection. Their cameo was filmed during one of their appearances at the Copacabana nightclub in New York, where they sung Jimmy Webb's "Everybody Gets to Go to the Moon."
