SISTERS LOVE With Love

As the ’70s dawned and Motown relocated to the West Coast, the era of their honey-toned ’60s girl groups came to a resounding halt. The Sisters Love were the antithesis of the traditional Motown group and came to the label from A&M, armed with a lot of funk, sass and attitude. Paired with some of Motown’s finest writers and producers – Hal Davis, Gloria Jones, Pamela Sawyer, Paul Riser and Willie Hutch – they got off to a rousing start with the gritty “Mr. Fix-It Man” and went into high gear for the UK only release “I’m Learning To Trust My Man”. Motown had them playing arenas with The Jackson Five (probably not their smartest move!), issued the odd single and scheduled more but Sisters Love’s anticipated breakthrough didn’t happen.
