I was wondering if any Three Degrees fans from England or even from Europe in general can answer this.
Three Degrees who are from Philadelphia in USA were originally only known in limited US regions and were more of nightclub singers and barely made any albums and barely were on television/films.
However, once their hit 1973-74 songs became internationally well known, they became very internationally famous including nationwide in USA, especially with their song "When Will I See You again".
But for some reason starting in the mid to late 1970s and moving forward, their fame became mainly more focused in Europe and especially in England and were pretty much forgotten in USA. Now I know that they eventually signed with a European based international records company, but you would still think they would still continue to have fame worldwide and especially in USA since that is where they are from.
They never made any performance appearances on any USA shows since the mid 1970s and all of their performance appearances were pretty much only in England and sometimes other parts of Europe. It was as if they all moved to England and moved their career base to England almost like how Pierce Brosnan or Charles Shaughnessy moved to the USA and made their careers mainly USA based, but even they continued to be well known to their England hometown fans. However, none of the members of Three Degrees moved to England and remained in the USA as their home, except Sheila Ferguson moved and settled in England and her career has been England based since then and now no one in the USA knows who she is anymore.
Even British based celebrities became worldwide famous including in the USA like the Beetles, Spice Girls, David Beckham and etc. So even if the Three Degrees were now with a European company, you would think they still continued to have fame in the USA since that is where they are from.
I wonder why they just disappeared from the USA medias. They have not made any performance appearances on USA television programs in decades nor have USA medias spoken about them. They pretty much are only well known in England, Great Britain area, and Europe at this point as the medias from these countries are the only ones that talk about them and invite them to their television shows to perform, but USA none at all. And if something were to happen to one or more of the members, only England and other European medias would cover the stories and it would be a very big deal whereas the USA medias would have no idea who they are and would not even cover their stories.
In 1968 or so, they appeared at a night club in Boston where I worked. It was the first time I went all the way (as we said) with a black girl. Loved it.........LOL

Sheila Ferguson turns up on British tv now and then. The last time I saw her on tv, was for a series called ‘The Real Marigold Hotel’ where celebrities visited India, to see if they could retire over there. It was a good series, and all the people on there were quite funny and entertaining.
I wish, I will have a glass of wine later on tonight.
I don't really do Karaoke, so that's the nearest you will get to me singing 'When Will I meet you again' by the Three Degrees.
I often wonder why they called themselves the Three Degrees, and which one was hot, which one was cold and which one was just medium lukewarm.
