  • The 5th Dimension is a multiple Grammy-winning American popular music vocal group, whose repertoire also includes pop, R&B, soul, and jazz. The 5th Dimension was best-known during the late 1960s and early 1970s for popularizing the hits "Up, Up and Away", "Wedding Bell Blues", "Stoned Soul Picnic", "One Less Bell to Answer", "(Last Night) I Didn't Get to Sleep at All", and "Aquarius/Let the Sunshine In", as well as the eponymous 5th Dimension and The Magic Garden LP recordings. The five original members were Billy Davis, Jr. , Florence LaRue, Marilyn McCoo, Lamonte McLemore, and Ron Townson. They have recorded for several different labels over their long careers. Their first work appeared on the Soul City label, which was started by Imperial Records/United Artists Records recording artist Johnny Rivers. The group would later record for Bell/Arista Records, ABC Records, and Motown Records. Some of the songwriters popularized by The 5th Dimension later went on to careers of their own, especially Ashford & Simpson, who wrote "California Soul". The group is also notable for having more success with the songs of Laura Nyro than Nyro did herself, particularly in the cases of "Wedding Bell Blues", "Stoned Soul Picnic", and "Save the Country" The group also covered music by well known songwriters such as the song "One Less Bell to Answer", written by Burt Bacharach and Hal David. And perhaps best of all, they became great interpreters of the songs and music of Jimmy Webb, who penned their original mega-hit "Up, Up, and Away", including an entire recording of memorable Webb songs called The Magic Garden.

  • フィフス・ディメンション(The Fifth Dimension)は、主に1960年代後半に活躍したアメリカのコーラス・グループ。後に夫婦となるマリリン・マックー、ビリー・デイビスJrを含む男女混声の黒人5人組で当初はFour Topsばりのリズム・アンド・ブルースを目指したが成功せずプロデューサーの意向でコーラス重視の"Black - Mamas & Papas"のイメージ戦略に変更。当時新進の作曲家であったジミー・ウェッブやローラ・ニーロの楽曲起用が当たり彼らを世に出すきっかけともなった。また、その取り上げる楽曲が洗練されたアレンジとハーモニーワークに印象づけられることからR&Bやソフト・ロックというよりもむしろAnita Kerr SingersやSingers Unlimitedにより類似点が見いだせると言えよう。 1967年のヒット曲「Up, Up And Away」(邦題は『ビートでジャンプ』)は、グラミー賞の最優秀レコード賞等4部門を受賞。同曲は航空会社のCM曲としても知られる。1969年には、ミュージカル「ヘアー」の最初の曲と最後の曲をくっつけた「Aquarious〜Let The Sunshine In/輝く星座 」が全米1位となり、同曲で再びグラミー賞最優秀レコード賞を受賞。 1976年、マックーとデイビスがデュオとして活動するためにグループを脱退。「星空のふたり」などのヒット曲を放った。なおマックーは元トップモデルで、しばしば女優としても活動している。
