That year, they also worked with Harry Mudie, releasing songs like "Each Time" and "Let Me Tell You Boy". "Let Me Tell You Boy" was a huge hit and stayed in the charts for over 6 weeks. They also released cover versions of "Son of a Preacher Man" by Dusty Springfield and "Another Night" by Carla Thomas. Nora Dean moved to New York and the group disbanded in 1976.
