They were on the HI record label out of Memphis & consisted of Frankie Gearing & Lois Reeves and I can not remember the other ladys' name.

[motony]

Oh yes.I think Frankie & the other lady had been in the group The Glories. They had a record on HI "You Got My Mine Messed Up". Quiet Elegance also backed up Otis Clay on his HI recordings.

So Lois has had more of a career that normally known!
