The Pointer Sisters – 8 Top 40 Albums (1973-85)



The Pointer Sisters are an American recording act from Oakland, California that achieved mainstream success during the 1970s and 1980s. Spanning over three decades, their repertoire has included such diverse genres as R&B, jazz, bebop, blues, soul, funk, dance, pop, disco, country and rock.

They created an original sound that combined jazz, rock, blues, be-bop and funk into an exciting R&B style mix that was upbeat, hip, and excited audiences enjoying pop, soul, and even country hits. In searching of a visual style for their act, they remembered the poverty of their childhood growing up in West Oakland, and their ability to improvise, and used their experience to assemble a collection of vintage 1940s clothes from thrift shops, that would comprise their costumes and give them the distinctive look.

During their career they produced 13 top 20 singles, including the following hit recordings:

• 1973: "Yes We Can Can" (US #11)
• 1974: "Fairytale" (US #13)
• 1975: "How Long (Betcha Got a Chick on the Side)" (US #20)
• 1979: "Fire" (US #2)
• 1980: "He's So Shy" (US #3)
• 1981: "Slow Hand" (US #2; UK #10)
• 1982: "Should I Do It" (US #13)
• 1982: "American Music" (US #16)
• 1984: "Automatic" (US #5; UK #2)
• 1984: "Jump (For My Love)" (US #3; UK #6)
• 1984: "I'm So Excited" (remix) (US #9; UK #11)
