My "New Dimensions " Lp with folding pictured cover doesn't provide much info as to whos who, nor who's the lead in any song, an authographed 12" test press of "Giving up" list the girls as Helen ,Valerie and Sheila.

The album was dedicated to Peter Allen.

Besides the regular Ariola 12" of "The Runner" 8:13 and "Giving up ,Giving in" 6:00 there is also a blue color 12" of "The Runner" released in a plastic transparent cover.

Edit : I just checked my Best of " Cd and Fayette Pinkney is part of the original group , so I guess Helen was replacing her and touring/promoting the "new Dimensions " Album. Good I checked this, cause now I know my copy is missing a signature! :x

The 1980 album they did with Giorgio and Harold Faltermeyer, THREE D, doesn't offer any liner notes at all. Here's a link giving you pictures and bio that'll probably help you identify the ladies.

BTW, my fave by the girls is still "Maybe" 8) , their 1970 cover of the Chantel's 60s hit.
