The Manhattan Transfer foi o resultado de muitos anos e muita persistência do cantor e fundador Tim Hauser (voz:baixo), cuja história remonta a um grupo de "doo-wop" chamado "Criterions" quando Tim ainda tinha 15 anos.
Posteriormente, Tim formou o primeiro Manhattan Transfer com cinco membros e gravou um obscuro disco. Essa primeira versão do grupo acabou em 1971.
The Manhattan Transfer, como o conhecemos, renasceu como quarteto com Janis Siegel (voz:Alto)
