The 5th Dimension March 18, 2009

In 1967, a little-known singing group called the 5th Dimension recorded 'Up, Up and Away,' which turned out to be one of the biggest smash hits in music history. The single won several Grammy Awards, the group catapulted to stardom, and their story has been one of success ever since. Original members Florence LaRue and Lamonte McLemore, along with Phyllis Battle, Greg Walker and Willie Williams, have put together a show and sound that is distinctively their own, with more vocal range than ever and material that is fresh and varied.
