The Resume

Shellie Clark (singer)
Recorded 'Want Ads,' 'While You're Out Looking for Sugar,' 'Girls It Ain't Easy,' 'Stick Up,' 'One Monkey Don't Stop No Show,' 'The Day I Found Myself' and 'Ace in the Hole'

Why they might be annoying:

They did not own the rights to their name, so their producers assembled a new group using the name after the original members split up.
Carolyn Willis later appeared on Seals and Crofts' lame hit single 'Get Closer.'

Why they might not be annoying:

Their song 'Want Ads' was a number one hit on the pop and soul charts.
Their songs celebrated female independence.
They were all experienced background singers before they formed.
Edna Wright is the sister of Darlene Love.
Shellie Clark is now married to Verdine White of Earth, Wind, & Fire.
They remain active today as session singers.
