"When Will I See Y'all Again" is a song released in 1974 by American soul grouping The Iii Degrees, from their third album The Iii Degrees. The song was written and produced by Kenny Gamble and Leon Huff. Sheila Ferguson sang the lead, accompanied by Fayette Pinkney and Valerie Holiday. Billboard named the vocal #67 on their list of 100 Greatest Girl Group Songs of All Time.[one]

Background [edit]

Sheila Ferguson recalled that "the vocal was played to me by Kenny Gamble at the pianoforte in 1973 and I threw a tantrum. I screamed and yelled and said I would never sing information technology. I thought it was ridiculously insulting to be given such a simple song and that it took no talent to sing it. We did do it and several one thousand thousand copies later on, I realized that he knew more than than me."[2] She would later take a #60 hit with a solo remake of the track in 1994.[3] The song is unique in that every judgement is a question, heightening the overall effect and emotion. The 3 Degrees performed the vocal at Prince Charles' 30th altogether party at Buckingham Palace in 1978.
