Sound DNA
- Soul & Funk
It is the last studio album issued by the group after ten years with the Gordy label. The album is significant for featuring the group's biggest hit of the decade with the Jackson 5-esque "Bless You". The track returned the Vandellas to chart success briefly in the US reaching number fifty-three pop, number twenty-nine R&B and reaching number thirty-three on the UK pop singles chart. It was also a top twenty hit in Canada reaching number sixteen on the chart. Two other subsequent singles, "In And Out of My Life" and "Tear It On Down", were the trio's last Billboard charted hits reaching the top 40 on the R&B charts. After this album, the trio later disbanded that December ending the group's ten year tenure together.
