The one on the left (better seen at 1:14) is Mrs. Shelly Clark-White, the wife of Verdine White of Earth, Wind & Fire. I believe they are approaching 28 years.

Identity



Original member Edna Wright still tours using two replacement vocalists for Carolyn Willis and Shelly Clark. They call themselves Edna Wright and the Honey Cones.

One of the most recent recordings with Carolyn Willis which I could find is "Here to Love You" by Melissa Manchester (1995).
