ladies supreme.......2007-04-19
Still enjoy these ladies music. Brings back many memories. Especially love their version of "Fire." No offense to the great Springsteen, but these ladies got the song right. More of a woman's song anyway.
Fun cd........2007-02-08
This cd is really fun to listen to. There were a few songs I don't remember, but the rest were great. Also the shipping was fast.
Best of the Pointer Sisters.......2006-11-07
I like it! I had this on cassette tape and wanted to upgrade it with a CD. I Like most of their work.
disappointing cos...........2006-08-26
I really wanted to stay on the 80's track instead of anything earlier. ho hum.
I Grew Up With These Ladies Music Playing In The House.......2006-04-13
Now at the age of thirty I just absolutely love this cd. It has everything on it. The Pointer Sisters delivered a song like no ones business. The late June Pointer's voice will always be heard for many more years to come. Her voice was amazing and will live on through her music. This collection captures the best of the Sisters' work.

Those Eclectic Pointers: The Early Years, 1972-1977 [*2 & half stars] .......2007-02-02
Before having cross-over appeal (as a trio) with "Fire", "Slow Hand", and the huge Pop hits "Jump (For My Love)" and "I'm So Excited", The Pointer Sisters - then, for the most part, a quartet - recorded in the 1970s on the Blue Thumb label.
YES WE CAN: THE BEST OF THE BLUE THUMB RECORDINGS consists of 14 songs from 1972-1977; tracks are not in chronological order. Disc packaged in black jewel case; total running time: 75:27. Booklet includes an essay by David Nathan, a couple uncaptioned b&w photos, and limited track information (songwriting and release years are provided; not provided are albums of origin, recording information, musician personnel, chart positions, etc.). Sound quality is excellent.
The songs, taken from their four Blue Thumb albums (1973's "The Pointer Sisters", 1974's "That's A-Plenty", 1975's "Steppin'", and 1977's "Having a Party") and a soundtrack contribution, range from Blues to R&B to Jazz, and includes "Fairytales", the song for which they won the 1974 Grammy award for "Best Country Performance by a Duo or Group".
Here is a track listing, with Titles, [year], music description, (time), and my 0-5 star rating:
01. Yes We Can [1973] mid-tempo R&B (6:02) ***3
02. Wang Dang Doodle [1973] up-tempo Blues (3:56) ***3
03. Fairytales [1974] Country ballad (3:03) zero
04. Going Down Slowly [1975] up-tempo funky R&B (7:52) ****4
05. How Long (Betcha' Got a Chick on the Side) [1975] mid-tempo R&B (7:22) *****5
06. You Gotta Believe (from the film "Car Wash") [1976] up-tempo R&B (2:53) ****4
07. Cloudburst [1973] up-tempo bebop Jazz (3:10) *1
08. Jada [1973] slow-tempo Jazz (4:41) *1
09. Black Coffee [1974] Jazz ballad (6:07) **2
10. Steam Heat [1974] showtune from "The Pajama Game" (5:40) zero
11. Salt Peanuts [1974] up-tempo bebop Jazz (5:10) *1
12. Having a Party [1977] up-tempo R&B (4:34) **2
13. Love in Them There Hills [1974] mid-tempo R&B (8:31) ***3
14. Don't It Drive You Crazy [1977] slow-tempo R&B (6:18) ***3
While the collection only includes 14 songs, it totals over 75 minutes of music because several of the songs are over 7 minutes long. Their vocals and harmonies are great, especially on Gamble/Huff's "Love in Them There Hills", where they do some Sweet Honey in the Rock-like vocalizations. Another great song is "You Gotta Believe", the song they sing as the "Wilson Sisters" - singing church ladies to Richard Pryor's preachin' pimp character in "Car Wash". There rendition of "Wang Dang Doodle", the Willie Dixon song made popular by his protege Koko Taylor in the 1960s.
This is a great CD, if only for "You Gotta Believe" and the songs the precede it, "Going Down Slowly" and "How Long (Betcha' Got a Chick on the Side)" - the latter being the inspiration for Salt-N-Pepa's "Chick on the Side" in 1988. The Pointer Sisters' original line-up was June, Ruth, Anita, and Bonnie; June left the group for a time for persona reasons (after their third album), but rejoined the group when Bonnie left to pursue a solo career.
The music here is very eclectic. The Country song (track 2) and showtune (10) seem out of place, but do demonstrate that eclecticism. And while the booklet is lacking, most of the music included is very enjoyable.
The best of the best.......2007-01-05
Pointer Sisters great music,the early years ,full of energy,later music had more skill sure but nothing matches the excitement of this cd,truely timeless.
New appreciation for the Pointers.......2006-09-15
Until the recent death of youngest sister June, I hadn't given the Pointer Sisters any thought in years. But after recently purchasing this CD, I realized the group is sadly underrated.
I first became aware of the Pointers with their 1972 version of "Yes, We Can, Can", a funk and R&B number a lot of listeners either are unaware of or forgot they recorded. That song coupled with their 40s style of dress and jazzy vocals were among my early childhood memories. But for many listeners, the Pointers would remain under the radar until they teamed with Richard Perry in the late 70s and crossed over into pop.
Unfortunately because most people are only familiar with their 80s hits where their vocals were often overshadowed by Perry's synthesized pop production, many critics find it easy to dismiss them as nothing more than a run of the mill fluffy pop girl group. This point was brought home recently during two separate conversations I had with individuals, who familiar with only the 80s songs, expressed surprise at how strong and diverse the sisters' vocals were after hearing their earlier 70s works.
If you really want to hear what the Pointers were capable of early in their career when they were four members strong, listen to this CD. I bet a lot of R&B fans who dismiss the 80s Pointers as too pop will be surprised at how funky the sisters are on songs such as "Going Down Slowly" and "How Long". They also show they're more than capable of handling jazz and swing on "Steam Heat" and "Jada." There's even a country song on here (Fairytale.) Another thing this CD brings to light is that the sisters, Anita and Bonnie in particular, had impressive songwriting skills. They composed "Jada", "How Long" and "Fairytale." It appears they did less songwriting in their 80s work.
It's a fun CD to listen to as the group obviously had a more musically adventurous side than their 80s hits would suggest. Check out their style before Bonnie departed and the remaining sisters took a more commercial and lucrative route.
Bless My Soul: The Pointers at Blue Thumb...........2004-03-11
...they acted as if they stepped out of an "Ain't Misbehavin'" type of scenario. Nineteen forties party gals who was all about having a good time in their Rosie the Riveter hairdos, their nylons knotted at their thighs, their Be-bop stilleto'ed platform shoes. Most thought they were a disco novelty act. But wait. Did you hear those David Rubinson produced, wah-wah in overdrive, 7 plus minute tracks like Yes We Can, How Long (Betcha Gotta Chick on the Side), Love in Them Hills, Going Down Slowly? Are they funky or what? Did you listen to those old jazz cuts they harmoniously performed like the Andrew Sisters deconstructed and then dipped in honey and green tea...Jada, Salt Peanuts, Cloudburst? These ladies were listening to jazz vocalese experts Hendricks, Ross and Lambert, fer sure. And that one country and western tune Fairy Tale. I ain't much for country, but it even had me looking for a Stetson. We pretty much all know what happens to the ladies: the Dreamgirls scenario. One leaves the group for a solo career, seemingly to leave the others for dead. The remainder of the group goes on to wild success, yadda, yadda, yadda. It's all in the History of R&B books under 'Sisters, Pointer'. But in all that, they put out some great music. I look forward to the repressing of some of the Richard Perry produced Planet Records they did--particularly Special Things. Until then, this will admirably fill my bill.
Essential Early Pointer Sisters.......2003-12-11
I like this collection a lot: lots of jazzy-flavored type songs that will make you smile. I like "Jada" and "Black Coffee", very nice songs. Although they are best known for later hits like "Slow Hand" and the hits from the album "Break Out", this is a welcome edition for another side of the Pointer Sisters that some may not have thought existed.
If you purchased the 2-CD collection of hits "Fire: The Very Best Of The Pointer Sisters", then you may have noticed that only 4 of the 14 songs from this album are on that collection. Thus, the best of the Blue Thumb is NOT a supplement but an essential buy even for the casual fan.

What A Surprise!.......2006-10-23
I wasn't sure how I would take to this collection due to the omissions of most of the songs that made the Pointer Sisters dance divas of the 1980's. But many folks have forgotten, or were too young at the time to realize that the Pointer Sisters had another decade of hits before the one most remembered. This compilation focuses on much of their early material, as a quartet before sister Bonnie left for a solo career. And the two songs Bonnie was most noted for as a solo artist conclude this collection. Also included are great funk/r&b gems that the Pointers made fab during the 70's like "How Long," "Going Down Slowly," "You Gotta Believe," and "Yes We Can Can." The funk grooves are serious and the gospel flavor in all four voices allow the sisters to make their voices sound like they're adding a new instrument to complete a song. A fantastic compilation awaits here and for those who loved the Pointer Sisterts throughout the 80's, as I did, I encourage you to study how it all began because you'll find how they've always had a wealth of talent combined with a superb musical philosophy.
Slow Hands.......2006-04-14
There is so much you can say about girl groups of the past. While we often think of those definitive ones like Diana Ross & The Supremes, Spice Girls, En Vogue, and recent acts like Destiny's Child, there is one of those groups that really did cross all boundaries during their top of the game. The Pointer Sisters remain as of the most soulful guilty pleasure acts of all time through their classic upbeat Soul and Dance tracks. Unfortunately, that came to a end with the recent tragic death of June Pointer from cancer. While her loss was a blow to the industry, the music she, and her siblings Anita, Bonnie, and Ruth still live on.
20th Century Masters Millenium Collection: The Pointer Sisters is a budget-sized and priced refelection of the girl group through most of their highs and lows throughout the 70's and 80's. The collection reflects mostly on their era through the Blue Note days, while showing some, but not adequately their definitive work with RCA years. Still, the collection does highlight some great tracks including Yes We Can Can, which was used a few years ago for Slim-Fast products, Fairy Tale, and classics like Jump (For My Love), and He's So Shy. The album however does overlook a lot more from their triumphs in the 80's with definitive hits Neutron Dance, Automatic, and smash I'm So Excited weren't at all showcased on this collection which leaves die hard fans a lot more that could've to have been desired.
Unfortunately, the 20th Century Masters Millennium Collection of The Poionters isn't really a definitive record of hits at all. Although it may be good for newcomers to their music, you are just actually better off with the 2000 Best Of The Pointer Sisters collection instead. This collection is really so shy.

An ecclectic collection!!!.......2005-08-01
Ignore the complaints about what the CD is not. Let me tell you what it is. A great collection of the many different aspects of this wonderful group. Buy the Platinum & Gold Collection together with this and you'll be very glad. Great stuff.
Anemic collection -- more Bonnie, please!!.......2004-08-13
This is a very anemic and disparate collection of Pointer Sisters music throughout their career. This hardly does this unique group justice. The only thing that is really special here is the re-release of Bonnie Pointer's solo work. Why doesn't someone just re-release the first two CD's of Bonnie's work on Motown?
If you are looking for the best of the "Pointer Sisters," I suggest you do a search on Yahoo. There are a CD's of the sisters' early work on Blue Thumb, as well as their work with Richard Perry through the 80's. You can also find imports of the sister's best CD's.
Unless you're a die hard fan, like me, and love Bonnie Pointer, that is the only reason to buy this. And for the price, this is not a bad deal. Looks like this is the only place one is going to find Bonnie Pointer on CD right now.
All sides shown..........2004-08-08
The Pointer Sisters are an amazing band. Have a listen to the tracks here and you'll hear the most diverse group in the history of music. It may not have all the hits, but this cd does a good job of showing what an amazing talent they are. Most of the groups Blue Thumb hits are here along with later highlights. If all you know is I'm So Excited... Listen up!

All the Top 40 Hits and then some!.......2007-04-05
Its easy to forget how many hits the Pointer Sisters had during their long career or to only remember a few of their more memorable hits during that time. Sitting down to "Fire - The Very Best of the Pointer Sisters" is a quick reminder not just of many hits they had (16 Top 40 hits in 13 years), but their growth as artists. "Fire" charts their career arc starting with their earliest recordings for the Atlantic label back in 1972 and follows through up to their last for the RCA label in 1986. Along the way the sisters defied preconceived notions, endured countless label changes, tried on a wide variety of musical styles, and blossomed into one of the best-loved musical acts of the era.
There's something here to please everyone, from the very soulful take on Bruce Springsteen's "Fire" (their 1978 mega-hit), to the passionate "He's So Shy" and "Slow Hand," to the exuberant "I'm So Excited" and "Neutron Dance." Included are some great forgotten hits like "American Music," "Yes We Can Can," and "Dare Me." Indeed, listening to so many great high-energy tracks I defy you not to let the rhythm get to you! All their hits are included here as are a number of bonus tracks from their solo careers (which were hits as well) and some great tracks that should have hits or could have been hits. By the time both CDs come to an end you'll be a fan and "Fire" is a testament to the Pointer Sisters talent and staying power. "Fire" is an overdue career-long survey for a group that merits another look.
Great Collection...STILL not complete!.......2003-12-12
This 2-CD collection is very thorough that even casual fans should be willing to buy and forget the usual single CD hits collection. All the major hits are here: "Fire", "Slow Hand", and songs from their most successful album "Break Out".
However, there is not enough material from their early Blue Thumb recording. The good news: there is a "best of" album for that period that to me is essential. That's the reasoning for my title.
The packaging is good: the pictures and liner notes are exceptional. There are no lyrics nor chart entries listed. However, you can find the lyrics on the internet. There are several music archives listed in the booklet as well.
'70's POINTERS RULE.......2003-09-28
I see this POINTER SISTER'S Double CD collection as a tribute to Richard Perry.
Don't get me wrong..he produced some mighty fine POINTER hits.
BUT the POINTERS in the 70's were more creative and had LOTS more fun than the 80's POP-COMMERCIALIZED songs heard here.
Just listen to tracks 2 through 5 to hear the SOUND that caught EVERYONE's attention.
Pointer Fans will buy this--I DID--but I keep going back to the songs that REMAIN FRESH

THE GIRLS BURN WITH FIRE ON THIS REMASTERED 2 CD SET!.......2003-02-12
This is the best Pointer Sisters retro so far, and it comes from RCA-BMG. The CD that I'm talking about is The Very best Of
The Pointer Sisters-Fire. This is a 2 CD set and starts at the beginning of their career up to their final RCA-BMG release.
We got here their first recording for Atlantic "Don't Try To Take The Fifth" way back in ''72. Then comes four killers from the
MCA/BlueThumb era "Yes We Can Can," "Wang Dang Doodle," "Fairytale" & "How Long (Betcha Got A Chick On The
Side)". Man, this stuff smokes! Then follows all their smashes along with a few solo recordings by June & Anita from their solo
releases. They're all here! "Everybody Is A Star," " He's So Shy," "Fire," Slow Hand," & I'm So Excited". Plus many many
more all time great classics by these girls! Extensive liner notes & a book full of pixs is included! A+
These harmonies are a joy to listen to....LEGENDARY!.......2001-08-19
This 2-cd set is to date the best demonstration of the incredibly successful career of the Pointer Sisters. There are fun songs on this cd set and touching lyrics with beautiful vocals. -IMPRESSIVE- They have recorded 18 albums and the talent demonstrated here displays exactly why record companies have continued to believe in them. I only hope we get to hear NEW music from these ladies very soon.
