Although DON'T LEAVE ME THIS WAY was conceived elsewhere; the Motown version is just that , arranged and produced in house , recorded in house , with in house musicians . As the vocalist of the Motown production , Thelma Houston's involvement meant showing up to the Motown studio and being told "here sing this".
I thought you might be right about High Inergy , it would make sense , a female vocal group, but I see they were produced by an unknown [[ & with no Motown background) named Kent Washburn and recorded at ABC studios. Their breakthrough was mediocre at best anyway, one Top 40 hit that didn't break the Top 10.
Yes ....and where did they all go ??
