Album Notes & Community Reviews

Moving beyond the nostalgic 1940s aesthetic of their debut, The Pointer Sisters' sophomore album is a breathtakingly diverse showcase of their vocal agility. The record seamlessly shifts from jazz and soul to the hit country single 'Fairytale', which remarkably earned the group a Grammy Award for Best Country Vocal Performance.
