The Three Degrees at The Royal Albert Hall

The Three Degrees at The Royal Albert Hall was a 1979 television special produced by the BBC. It was a live concert performance by the American female vocal trio The Three Degrees, who were backed by the London Philharmonic Orchestra at London's prestigious Royal Albert Hall on 8 October 1979. This was The Three Degrees' second television special.

Overview

The show was based around the promotion of the group's latest album 3D, which had been released by European record label Ariola just prior to the engagement. Six songs from the concert went on to form side two of the group's Gold album released the following year. When the concert was televised it had been edited down and several songs that were on the album were not televised. Likewise, several songs from the television airing did not make it onto the album.
