Review by Can Burak Cilingir

The Pointer Sisters' self-titled album is a timeless classic that showcases the group's incredible talent and versatility. Released in 1973, the album features a mix of R&B, funk, and soulful ballads that highlight the sisters' distinctive harmonies and powerful vocals.

From the upbeat opening track "Yes We Can Can" to the soulful "River Boulevard," the album's 11 tracks are a testament to the sisters' musical prowess. The album's standout track, "How Long (Betcha' Got a Chick on the Side)," is a funky, uptempo number that showcases the sisters' ability to blend genres seamlessly.

The album's production is top-notch, with lush arrangements and tight instrumentation that perfectly complement the sisters' vocals. The album's mix of classic R&B and funk sounds with contemporary elements makes it a groundbreaking release that paved the way for the Pointer Sisters' future success.

About The Pointer Sisters

ladda ner album The Pointer Sisters - The Pointer Sisters

The Pointer Sisters are an American R&B singing group from Oakland, California, who achieved mainstream success during the 1970s and 1980s. Spanning over four decades, their repertoire has included such diverse genres as pop, disco, jazz, electronic music, bebop, blues, soul, funk, dance, country and rock. The Pointer Sisters have won three Grammy Awards and received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in 1994. The group had 13 US top 20 hits between 1973 and 1985. The group had its origins when sisters June and Bonnie Pointer began performing in clubs in 1969 as "Pointers, a Pair". The line-up grew to a trio when sister Anita Pointer joined them. They got a record deal with Atlantic Records and released several unsuccessful singles. The trio grew to a quartet when sister Ruth joined in December 1972. They then signed with Blue Thumb Records, recorded their debut album, and began seeing more success, winning a Grammy Award in 1975 for Best Country Vocal Performance for "Fairytale" (1974). Bonnie left the group in 1978 to commence a solo career with only modest success. The group achieved its greatest commercial success as a trio during the 1980s consisting of the line-up of June, Ruth, and Anita, winning two more Grammys for the top 10 hits "Jump (for My Love)" (1984) and "Automatic" (1984). The group's other U.S. top 10 hits are "Fire" (1979), "He's So Shy" (1980), "Slow Hand" (1981), the remixed version of "I'm So Excited" (1984) and "Neutron Dance" (1985). June Pointer, the youngest sister, struggled with drug addiction for much of her career, leaving the group in April 2004 and dying from extensive cancer in April 2006, at the age of 52. She was replaced by Ruth's daughter Issa Pointer. This trio had a number two hit in Belgium in 2005, covering "Sisters Are Doin' It for Themselves" with Belgian singer Natalia. Since 2009, the group has consisted of Anita, Ruth, Issa, and Ruth's granddaughter Sadako Pointer. While all four women remain in the group, they most often perform as a trio rotating the lineup as needed. In December 2016, Billboard magazine ranked them as the 80th most successful dance artists of all-time. In December 2017, Billboard magazine ranked them as the 93rd most successful Hot 100 Artist of all-time and as the 32nd most successful Hot 100 Women Artist of all-time.

RIP Anita Pointer

eyeswideopen2009

RIP Anita. My grandfather Mr. Whayne spoke of you and Ted Lange often.

Taking care of this world. Saved a waterfall and my kids. Taught hundreds to swim and saved more than a few in my life. What a beautiful song. My mom (rip) loved this one too.
